Just because you are planning a getaway in a luxurious harborside hotel doesn’t mean you can’t bring your favorite furry companion along for the adventure. At the Battery Wharf Hotel, an unrivaled urban retreat, guests may bring one or two pets, 50 pounds or under, to enjoy all this pet-friendly city has to offer. The boutique hotel is on the city’s picturesque Harbor Walk, so your pooch will get plenty of exercise. You will, too, since the hotel features a 24/7 fitness center and, for relaxation, access to the Exhale Spa and waterfront yoga classes. Pick up a gourmet coffee and artisanal pastry at Cafe Amalfi before heading out with your pet to explore Faneuil Hall Marketplace, the bustling waterfront and other parts of this delightfully walkable city.

An escape to the city for that perfect getaway does not mean you have to leave your four-footed companion at home.

One of the few pet-friendly hotels on the waterfront, the hotel has designated pet-friendly rooms and suites on three floors and permits leashed dogs throughout most of the hotel property.
