And there are few hotels better than The Hythe, a sophisticated alpine retreat with in-room fireplaces and private terraces complete with cozy firepits. Two dogs are allowed in each guestroom for a $150 fee at check-in, and they’ll receive complimentary bowls so you have one less thing to pack.

Waldorf Astoria Park City Park City, Utah 

There’s a spa and on-site restaurant, and the hotel has even nicknamed itself “Bark City” for its dog-friendly amenities.
