Triumph the Insult Comic Dog Reviews D Pet Hotels

Where: 1041 N Highland Ave. [map], Los Angeles, CA, United States, 90038

D PET HOTELS bills itself as "offering the most exclusive and unique experience from high-end luxury boarding to amazing spa services, which entice even the most discerning of dogs"—so we found the best, most relevant and professional reviewer to review the hotel for guest dogs, Triumph the Insult Comic Dog. Actually, Conan found him, and sent him to the doggy hotel and aired the footage last night. Some gems from Triumph's review?

London's Hottest New Hotel Goes to the Dogs

Where: 8 Cooks Hold Road, Enfield, United Kingdom, EN2 0UD

If you travel with your pet, you know how difficult it is to finagle a good room at a property accepting of your furry friend. Granted there are the Kimpton Hotels and the occasional pet packages, but otherwise you're out of luck if you want to check out a top-notch property in a city like London.

Enter the UK's hottest new boutique hotel: The Elmtree, a luxury kennel club solely for friends of the four-legged variety. Boarding your pet in style frees you to enjoy legendary London stays of your own; may we suggest the Lanesborough or The Baglioni for a pet-free night of indulgence?

Leaving Fido at The Elmtree so you can take a sidetrip to Bath or hunker down at The Haymarket doesn't mean that he'll be having any less fun. In addition to the usual comforts of a pet hotel including nutrition and exercise, The Elmtree offers luxury choices in pet bedding, an on-site grooming parlor, piped-in relaxing music, pet taxi service and even an in-kennel webcam for you to check in with your poochie whenever you want.

With prices starting at £20 for dogs and £12 for cats, The Elmtree almost makes us wish to be reincarnated as a pampered British kitten. But with our hotel stays on this side of the Atlantic, for now we'll just have to settle for sneaking around a shih tzu in a tote bag.
