Hilton to go pet-friendly
4 Jun 2008
Holidaymakers staying in a number of Hilton hotels in the Americas will soon be able to bring their pets along too.
The chain announced a new 'pet-friendly' scheme that will see some of its hotels fully prepared to welcome its customers' furry companions from this summer.
Pet-friendly rooms will feature stain- and water-resistant animal beds, food and water bowls with placemats and amenity kits including waste clean-up bags and treats.
A hotel concierge service will also provide information on local dog runs, veterinarian offices and pet boutiques.
Jeff Diskin, Hilton's senior vice-president of brand management, said: 'Hilton focuses on providing a hassle-free and inspired experience for the world's travellers – and for many travellers, being able to include a four-legged friend is critical to achieving a relaxed and productive stay.
'Our Pet Friendly program was designed with all of our guests in mind – those with or without pets – so that every stay can be personalised to meet the needs of the individual traveller and their entire family.'
If the US scheme proves successful, Hilton could offer pet-friendly rooms at hotels in a number of international locations.
