Staypinapple, University Inn, Seattle: A Certified Dog-Friendly Review
Situated in the iconic city of Seattle, the University Inn offers a relaxing haven for dog-loving travelers. While pups might not have access to the bar, restaurant, or terrace, they're welcome in the hotels lounge and public areas, ensuring they aren't confined to just the rooms. The hotel also provides dog beds and food/water bowls, as well as some free treats and a poop bag holder, highlighting the hotel's attention to dog friendly details for your four legged friend.
Although there aren't any dedicated private gardens within the inn's premises, the nearby outdoor amenities make up for it. In the vicinity of the University Inn, guests will find public green spaces perfect for a brisk walk or a playful fetch session. The hotel goes the extra mile by offering guidance on dog walk routes, ensuring safe and scenic walks for you and your dog.
The hotel is owned by the super dog friendly Staypineapple group, whose official mascot is a Husky called Dash that is frequently seen around the hotels. They also turned Dash into a plush toy that you can buy, with the proceeds going to canine charities, going above and beyond the norm in most hotels when it comes to dog friendliness.
The group hosts a number of dog focused activities and events in their hotels throughout the year. Every February the group celebrates their Pineapple Pup Plus One Month, waiving all dog fees for the entire month. They host annual fundraisers called Mother's Day Paw-Tay which are basically big parties to raise funds for canine humane charities. Every October they even have a super fun Pineapple Pup Costume Contest with prizes for the winning pup.
Ranked as a B+ in our directory, the University Inn is easily one of the most dog friendly hotels in the area. While there are no specific size restrictions, it's advised to check directly with the hotel regarding their policy. More than half of the hotels rooms are dog friendly, so there should never be any availability issues, but a fee of $25 per night applies for canine guests. To get half off this dog fee, and the best possible room rate, contact the hotel directly on (206) 632-5055 and mention Roch.
