The hotel's policy (Hyatt.com) permits one dog per room with a maximum weight of 50 pounds. Service animals are exempt from pet fees.
A $100 nonrefundable pet fee applies for stays up to six nights. For stays of 7–30 nights an additional $100 cleaning fee is charged; the policy says longer stays require contacting the property.

Before you arrive: bookings and check-in
Make sure the person who books and checks in meets the property's minimum check-in age (21) and is present at arrival; a government photo ID and a credit card in the registrant’s name are required at check-in.
Because third-party sites sometimes show conflicting pet notes, rely on the hotel's official pet policy when booking and notify the front desk in advance if you're traveling with a dog.
- Minimum age to reserve and check in: 21 (registered guest must be present)
- Bring photo ID and credit card in the reservation holder’s name
- Confirm pet details with the hotel before arrival
| At arrival | Tip |
|---|---|
| ID & credit card required | Have documents handy to speed check-in |
| Pet notification | Inform front desk on arrival if you didn't pre-notify |
| Incidentals | A security authorization is commonly held at check-in |
Where pets are and aren’t allowed
The published policy covers dogs in guestrooms; the hotel is smoke-free and does not advertise pet access restrictions for specific public areas on its site. If you need clarification about dining areas or The Placery, ask the front desk on arrival.
Service animals are treated under ADA rules and are allowed without the pet fees noted above.
- Pet policy applies to guestrooms; ask staff about common-area rules
- The Placery is the lobby restaurant/bar — check with staff about bringing a dog into dining spaces
- Service animals are allowed and fee-exempt
| Area | Typical rule |
|---|---|
| Guestroom | Dogs allowed per pet policy |
| Dining (The Placery / The Market) | Confirm with staff — hotel site does not list a blanket allowance |
| Public indoor spaces | Ask front desk for specifics |
Room options to consider with a dog
Room types include Room, 1 King Bed, City View; Room, 2 Double Beds; and several 'with Sofa bed' variants. Choose a room size and layout that fits your dog and your needs — a Room, 1 King Bed or one of the two-double-bed configurations may give more floor space.
If you plan to use a sofa bed, check whether housekeeping or bed setup affects where you can leave a pet when staff need to enter the room.
- Room, 1 King Bed, City View — more open floor by the bed area
- Room, 2 Double Beds — useful if you need extra sleeping space or firm surfaces
- Room, with Sofa bed (various options) — extra sleeping option but ask staff about policies for pets on bedding
| Room name | Why it helps with a dog |
|---|---|
| Room, 1 King Bed, City View | Larger single-bed layout; easier floor space |
| Room, 2 Double Beds | More hard-surface floor and mattress options |
| Room, with Sofa bed | Extra seating/bed — ask about pet access to sofas |
Fees, deposits and charges to expect
Beyond the nonrefundable pet fee(s) the hotel commonly places an incidental authorization at check-in (security deposit) to cover potential charges; this is refunded after check-out if unused.
Service animals are exempt from the pet fee. For any other fees or parking costs, confirm with the hotel or your BookResorts agent before arrival.
- Pet fees per Hyatt.com: $100 nonrefundable (1–6 nights); +$100 cleaning fee for nights 7–30

Practicalities during your stay
The hotel offers 24-hour front desk service and luggage storage — useful if you need a short place to keep gear while you walk a dog. The property is in Midtown West near Times Square, so outdoor walking options are neighborhood sidewalks, small parks and nearby streets.
Housekeeping frequency and room-entry practices can vary; the hotel may enter occupied rooms for checks and housekeeping has been adjusted on some listings — ask the front desk about daily service requests if you need privacy or pet-specific arrangements.
- 24-hour front desk can advise on local dog-walking routes and nearby pet services
- Luggage storage available if you need to go out while handling pet logistics
- Confirm housekeeping schedule and any in-room entry preferences with staff
| Service | How it helps pet owners |
|---|---|
| 24-hour front desk | Ask about local walking routes and pet-friendly spots |
| Luggage storage | Store bags while handling immediate pet needs |
| Fitness center access | Not pet-friendly; pets should remain in rooms or with sitter |
