Above and Beyond

Some Aloft properties take special pride in the welcome they give their four-legged guests. Among the most pet-friendly Aloft locations in the world are:

There's Aloft to like about this moment. Photo by Facebook.com/aloftasheville

Aloft Asheville Downtown

Several Aloft locations across the U.S. have partnered with local shelters to provide foster care for homeless pets. Aloft’s foster dog program began at the Aloft Asheville Downtown in 2014, and it’s been a guest (and puppy) favorite ever since. The hotel teamed up with Charlie’s Angels Animal Rescue, which works to save dogs from a high-kill shelter. The hotel is conveniently located within walking distance of many pet-friendly restaurants and attractions, and four-legged guests are welcome in the hotel lobby for games and live music. Two pets of any size are permitted for no additional fee.

Aloft Tallahassee Downtown

With no pet fee or weight restrictions and a pet adoption program, Aloft Tallahassee Downtown hits all the marks of a top-notch pet-friendly hotel. In addition to providing four-legged guests with an on-site greenspace with waste stations and a goodie bag at check-in, the hotel works with Leon County Humane Society, Tallahassee’s largest no-kill, non-profit animal welfare organization, to foster homeless dogs and place them in loving homes.

Aloft Greenville Downtown

Easily explore all the pet-friendly restaurants and attractions like Falls Park by foot when you stay with Fido at Aloft Greenville Downtown. Dogs receive loaner beds and bowls along with treats at check-in and can use the convenient dog run on the 6th floor for potty breaks. You might also meet one of the hotel’s foster pups from Lucky Pup Rescue hanging out in the lobby in a custom doghouse designed by a local architecture firm. If you decide to add the lucky pup to your pack, he’ll go home with a custom collar and leash. Two pets of any size are welcome to stay for no additional fee.
