Make Traveling with Pets Simple

When you and your pet check in, we’ll greet you with a PAWS Welcome Letter and complimentary dog treats. Plus, we’ll have your room ready with a water dish, a feeding bowl, and a waterproof mat for use during your stay. Pamper your pet with the addition of a cozy pet bed at The Royal Sonesta, Sonesta Hotels & Resorts, Sonesta Select, and Sonesta Essential hotels.

PAWS pet food/treats, pet toys, pet waste bags, and other pet supplies are available for purchase at our pet marketplace. In addition, there are designated pet walking and potty areas at select hotels where space allows.
