With more than a hundred hotels worldwide joining this innovative initiative, Meli? is setting a new standard in pet-friendly hospitality
Meli? Hotels International has launched a new Pet Friendly program, designed exclusively for guests with four-legged companions. Starting this month furry family members will receive the warmest welcome at over a hundred Meli? hotels globally, where they can enjoy a stay as exclusive and comfortable as their owners'.
In Asia Pacific, hotels in Vietnam (Sol Phu Quoc and Meli? Ho Tram Beach Resort), Thailand (INNSiDE by Meli? Bangkok Sukhumvit) and China (INNSiDE Zhengzhou, Meli? Chongqing, and Gran Meli? Chengdu) will take part in the new program.
Building upon Meli?'s existing pet-friendly policies, the Pet Friendly program optimises amenities and care dedicated to guests' beloved pets, while expanding the selection of hotels offering these services, and streamlining the booking process directly on melia.com.
"This program reflects our commitment to meeting the evolving needs of our guests, including their beloved pets, who are integral members of their families," explained Susanna Mander, Marketing Director of Meli? Hotels International. "By providing a clear and comprehensive response to these needs, we ensure that every member of the family enjoys a memorable stay with us."
Setting itself apart from other pet-friendly programs, Meli?'s Pet Friendly hotels are fully-equipped to accommodate up to two dogs per room. Additionally, our program places pets at the forefront of the experience, ensuring they receive the best attention from the moment they enter the hotel. From a surprise welcome gift upon arrival to a comfortable bed and an online destination guide featuring pet friendly places and services nearby, Meli? ensures that pets feel valued and catered to throughout their stay.
In partnership with the Spanish startup Patasbox, Meli? European hotels will pamper pets with a curated selection of organic and natural products, further enhancing their stay experience. Patasbox offers a subscription service for dogs and their human companions, unveiling surprise-themed boxes every month filled with premium products.
As part of our commitment to inclusivity, pets staying at Meli? hotels will enjoy unlimited access to outdoor areas and are welcome to accompany their owners in most areas of the hotel, excluding specific zones such as the spa, indoor pool, and gym.
The Pet Friendly program by Meli? is available across various hotel brands, including ME by Meli?, Zel, and INNSiDE by Meli?, as well as a selection of Gran Meli?, Paradisus by Meli?, The Meli? Collection, Meli? Hotels & Resorts, Sol by Meli?, and Affiliated by Meli? hotels. Meli? are continuously working to expand this program to more hotels, ensuring that all necessary spaces and services are in place to properly accommodate pets.
The cost of this service varies depending on the hotel, with rates starting from 25 euros per day. This fee will be included in the final room rate reserved through melia.com, making the booking process seamless and convenient for guests.
