Grove Park Inn Hotel is Pet Friendly
The Grove Park Inn is now accepting guests of the four-legged variety for the first time in its almost 100 year history. A new section of “pet-friendly” rooms in the Vanderbilt Wing of the Resort will come with a special turndown amenity.  The Inn is offering guests who bring their pets on vacation a variety of trails and walking routes for exercising, as well as a special walking area for pets near the new pet-friendly rooms.

In addition to the many in-room amenities for guests and their pets, The Grove Park Inn will also provide guests information on local pet stores, vet clinics and other pet-related services to help support other local pet-friendly businesses. To make sure that pets of guests at The Grove Park Inn will experience the Resort’s legendary service, there’s even a special in room dining menu for pets featuring such items as Chicken “Pup” Pie and Meat Woof. While in public areas, pets must be kept on a leash or in a carrier.  Restrictions to locations within the Resort for pet access include the Great Hall Lobby, any Food & Beverage outlets, the Sports Complex, The Spa and pool areas. This exclusion does not apply to service dogs. Click here to visit their Web site for more info.
