Dorsett is the quintessential Melbourne hotel, and now the luxury accommodation spot on Little Lonsdale Street has recently launched a ‘Holidays for Hounds’ package. Primed for pups, doggos, and all the furry-friends, each pet-friendly room has all the pooch amenities one four-legged friend needs: proper orthopedic foam beds, lead-free stainless water and food bowls, plus a menu packed with gourmet meals. 

It's a good thing when one of the city's sleekest hotels also just happens to be one of the best dog friendly accommodation spots in Melbourne. The W Melbourne has opened up its doors to your furry friends with a variety of room options, opt for the 'Pets Are Welcome' and park up in one of the impeccably put-together hotel stays you're likely to come across.

The AC Marriott is a clear frontrunner for the best dog-friendly accommodation due to its proximity to the CBD's plethora of entertainment and restaurants. The 'close-to-pawfection' option at the hotel ranges from their deluxe guest rooms right up to their superior suites with spanking vistas of the city and also includes a doggo welcome pack with a plush bed, bowl and other treats.

Lock in a stay at the Pullman Melbourne on the Park's new Pet Suite, where you and your four-legged companion can dive into true comfort. This dog-friendly paradise includes a private courtyard, grass mat, and kennel—the hotel also offers a mouthwatering room service menu tailored for pets, featuring free dishes from poached chicken to diced Australian beef fillet. 10% of proceeds from your stay will go to supporting The Lost Dogs Home, making your stay even more meaningful.

QT is always on the pulse, whether it be an in-house pop-up bar or restaurant or their fully catered pet-friendly accommodation. Designed specifically for doggos, their 'Pup Yeah' offer includes a fully-catered mini bar packed with treats as well as a woofer-centric room service menu. If your best friend is in need of a glow-up there's also a bespoke grooming service and dedicated walkers in case you're looking for a little 'me time'.

Gift your dog with the full Melbourne experience at Zagame’s House in Carlton—the best pet-friendly accommodation in Melbourne. On arrival, your pooch will score a ‘Treat Yo Fur-baby’ goody bag, and during their stay, they can order from an exclusive in-room pet menu with dishes like holistic chicken and lentils, summer-bod meal and gluten-free ancient grain kangaroo. If your pal likes watching TV they can tune in to the ‘Furry Movie of the Month’ for free. Not all pets are accepted, so call ahead prior to booking.

The Langham is one of the city's top hotels, it also just so happens to be a front-runner for the best pet-friendly accommodation in Melbourne. Their pampered pets package includes the choice between two rooms depending on if you're bringing in a cat or a dog, however, both rooms offer an exclusive outdoor terrace and balcony access as well as guest valet parking and breakfast in bed. 

Did you know you can bring your dog for a stay at the groovy Ovolo Hotel in South Yarra? The 70s-inspired boutique hotel is a feast for the eyes and is right in the heart of shops, restaurants and parks. The Royal Botanic Gardens are within walking distance, as is Fawkner Park and the Yarra Trail, so there are plenty of outings for you and your pet to plan. Check-in for a city staycation and a change of scenery from your backyard. 

In terms of proximity for dog-friendly accommodation, it doesn't get much better than Ovolo Laneways. The slick boutique hotel on Little Bourke Street in the CBD, offers a similar offering to its South Yarra counterpart with dog-friendly suites filled with a full package from a plush dog bed to snacks and even a welcome pack with toys and treats.

Park up in the King Balcony room of the Hyatt Centric alongside your doggo with all the amenities taken care of. It's a sprawling light-filled room with it's own outdoor balcony for taking in some sun and fresh air. There's even premium hair care goods from Mr Smith and bathrobes for humans and a take-home toy for the doggos.
