"The chain must have changed their policies because the pet-friendly hotel internet listings include Holiday Inn Express and regular Holiday Inns in many different states. The one I stayed at is in Virginia."
Yorkiedaze: It has been my experience that just bc one particular hotel does allow dogs it does not mean that they all do. I asked and several hotels said that each hotel/motel has it's own policy.
Armaniman posted:
"Usually the hotel policy is that the dog must be crated when you leave the room and this is best for the dog anyway because if a maid were to miss the sign or accidentally open your door, your dog could run out.
I usually crate them in the bathroom with the door shut to provide even extra barriers between them and anyone who could open the door."
Oh--and I agree with you Armaniman! We don't put him in the bathroom just make sure he is in the expen. Also, someone posted that hotels have a policy about not leaving the dog alone in case of a fire but in some cases this is unavoidable. If there was heaven forbid a fire--or other emergency--if the dog is in a crate/pen he would be found immediately when the room is checked. If they were roaming free then the alarm might scare them and cause them to hide.
