The time for summer vacation is approaching, and once again you are feverishly wondering where to go for a holiday by the sea with your dog. Are you looking for a dog-friendly hotel?
Choosing the right accommodation or hotel for a holiday by the Polish sea with a dog can be even more difficult than finding the right place for families with children. Unfortunately, in many places, pets are not welcome, and sometimes the accommodation fee for them can even be as high as 300 PLN!
Vacation by the sea with a dog – why the difficulties?
Why do hoteliers so rarely accept dogs? There are many reasons, one of the main ones being the risk of significant losses that a hotelier can suffer due to a dog’s visit. It often happens that guests leave their dog locked in the room all day, which is a traumatic experience for the animal. In response to stress, the dog may destroy furniture and decorations. Another factor is the increasing number of people with allergies to animal fur, which can cause discomfort for other guests staying in the same spaces. Despite these difficulties, many accommodations and hotels by the sea are dog-friendly, allowing their owners to have a peaceful vacation.
Dog-friendly hotels by the sea
When you come to Gdynia for a holiday by the sea with your dog, consider staying at Hola Gdynia. This is a unique facility with friendly staff, located in the heart of vibrant Gdynia. Hola Gdynia is situated in a nearly century-old, renovated tenement house, located close to the pier and beach. The hotel offers comfortable, modernly equipped rooms, an elevator, and a breakfast room, where meals are served. Additionally, guests have 24-hour access to this room, which allows them to prepare meals at any time.
Hola Gdynia does not charge any fees for dog accommodation! Mrs. Renata, the owner of a sweet dog, wrote this review on Google after visiting Hola Gdynia:
