What's On The Room Service Menu at the Ritz-Carlton...For Pets
While staycationing at the Ritz-Carlton at LA Live the other month, we were flipping through the in-room compendium looking for some room service grub when we stumbled upon this--a pet room service menu!
We knew that hotels have been rolling out the red carpet for cats and dogs for a long time but we were still taken aback reading items like Spot's Chicken Meal and Lassy's Salmon Meal on the menu. Then we noticed how affordable these "entrees" were. Nine dollars for the chicken and six for dessert? Man, some dogs have all the luck. Now excuse us as we pick at our $15 fruit plate.

This Dog Is Living Your Hotel Dream
Oscar chillin' at Hotel Rouge in D.C.
Meet Oscar. He's a Golden Retriever from Portland, Oregon, and the canine answer to Paul Carr, the man who lived in hotels for three years.
We're not sure if Oscar is also writing a book about his experiences, but his hotel-bed and treat reactions are all documented in his owners' blog, The Great Kimpton Crawl of 2011. Yep, Oscar's a Kimpton man--mostly because they're one of the most famous and accommodating of the country's Pet-Friendly Hotels.

The New Shore Hotel Will Hit Santa Monica's Shores This Summer
If the first sniff of spring already has you planning your big summer vacay, there will be a new Santa Monica hotel vying to be your beachside retreat. The Shore Hotel, on the former site of the Pacific Sands and Travelodge, will open this summer.
The boutique hotel is trying to make itself stand out with its modern design, eco-friendliness and location across the street from the Santa Monica Pier and beach.

Atlantic City Gets Dog Friendly at the Showboat Casino
The Caesars Entertainment Pet Stay rooms in Vegas
When we think of Atlantic City we think gambling and Jersey Shore in that order. We don’t think dogs (unless we were feeling particularly unkind about Snooki et al). But now we might, because Showboat Atlantic City is striking out and marking its territory as the first dog-friendly casino in town.
The hotel launched its Pet Stay Atlantic City program yesterday. Bring your dog and you’ll be accommodated in its New Orleans Tower with dog treats, mat, food and water bowls, disposable waste bags (ugh) and a duffle bag for you to keep (lest you think it’s all about the dog).
There is also a designated PetStay area in the hotel (as with the fellow pet-friendly Caesars Entertainment properties in Vegas) and guests are provided with walking routes and maps to, uhm, “outdoor relief areas”).
It’s pretty reasonable – two dogs of up to 50 pounds are allowed in your room, at a cost of $40. But - yay for introductory deals - for the first two weeks of the program, it’ll be totally free.

Valentine's Day May Be Over But Loews Wants You To Spread Some Doggy Love
What with yesterday being all about your human lovahs, it’s possible that you may have neglected the other important person in your life. So if you shut the dog away in the garage yesterday, it might be time to redress the balance with Loews hotels’ latest offering from the Loews Loves Pets program.
The Woofie Weekends package gives you an overnight stay, a doggie meal on room service (sadly no human nosh included), the standard Loews Loves Pets amenities of bowl, mat and tags, and a Microdry memory foam mat, which provides “contoured support and retains body warmth for enhanced coziness” – think a Tempur-Pedic for dogs. Even better, you get to take the mat home with you, which is more than you can say for human hotel beds.

How Does a Menage a Trois in the Hamptons Sound For Valentine's Day?
You, your lovah, and your dog. Not like that, mind.
Every Valentine's Day, we're inundated with crazy hotel packages that would require a Real Housewives-sized budget (and aren't all that inventive). So this week, we're taking a look at affordable, but fun deals that us regular folks would book.
Celebs like Jerry Seinfeld, Sarah Jessica Parker, Madonna and the entire Real Housewives of New York City cast would have you believe that the Hamptons is only a summertime destination, but the tony Long Island haunt for the rich and fabulous is a good spot to try all year round. Should you bring your lady love or man meat to East Hampton's c/o The Maidstone for Valentine's Day weekend, you won't have to fight your way through the star-stalking masses. Also, you can add your dog into the mix.

Loews Is Giving Cute Hotel Doggies New Toys For The Holidays
As owners of some pretty Cute Hotel Doggies ourselves, we've seen our share of pet amenities. And we know that one surefire way to get our dogs to smile like this guy is to give them brand new toys.
Loews Hotels clearly know this as well, because their new Happy Tails pet package--available through the holidays and until January 31--includes a new Chatter Pup Telebone toy from Fisher Price's first line of pet toys.
The package also includes Loews' famous pet-friendly amenities (bowl, mat, and pet tags) and a 'Wag Your Tail Delight' beef tenderloin. Plus, the hotel will waive the standard $25 pet-cleaning fee.

Only in Beverly Hills, Does The Pet Fee Cost Nearly as Much as The Room
We woke up this morning and found ourselves thinking about staycationing. Gross, we know. Staycations are sooo 2009. But with temperatures topping 100 degrees in Los Angeles, we thought spending a weekend in a cool air-conditioned hotel room would be a well-deserved respite from our stuffy non-air-conditioned apartment.
And if we're going to do a staycation, we're not just going to do it anywhere. We're thinking The Beverly Hills Hotel, the famous Pink Castle on Sunset, home to countless celeb visits, parties and movie sets, where you can find the best and most expensive grilled cheese (in their basement coffee shop), get a $200 manicure/pedicure in-room and lay out by the pool while Cristiano Ronaldo outglistens you.
The only problem with this scenario is that two nights at the Beverly Hills Hotel is not exactly saving us money, although it's not as bad as we initially expected.

The InterContinental Barclay Serves Up Shocktails But Kids & Pets Get Treats, Too
Just tell the kids it's poison!
We tend to think of a hotel like the InterContinental New York Barclay as all business. But the folks at the Barclay Bar & Grill are getting into the Halloween spirit with their, um, spirits.
Bartender and mixologist Jose Torrella has designed two "Tarantulizing libations" (their words!) called the ICU and the Bloody City. They're $12 each and if you check in at the hotel with Foursquare Monday through Friday, from 5:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. you can buy one Shocktail, get one free.
