Driskill Hotel Awarded Most Pet-Friendly Hotel


Photo by Matt Wright on flickr
Seeing that Austin is such an awesome pet-friendly town, it should come as no surprise that Animal Fair Magazine has given the historic and lovely Driskill Hotel one of seven “Five star Bone” awards in recognition of their Pampered Pet Program.

For $50 per stay, pampered pets receive a custom-designed pet bed, gourmet treats, toys, and food and water bowls. Rumor has it the "I Love My Dog Better" singles pet package includes a robe, champagne and chocolate-covered fruit for the pet’s owner parent.

Also of note, Continental Airlines received recognition for their PetSafe program that allows pets too large to travel in the cabin to fly as cargo instead of baggage, ensuring Fido’s safety and comfort.

Happy travels!
