Hotel chain pet policies
What each group states about travelling with an animal. Most of them set no chain-wide fee at all and leave it to the individual hotel, which is itself worth knowing before you assume a brand is uniform.

A blank cell means the chain does not publish that figure. Where the fee is set by each property, the figure is the chain's stated position, not any hotel's price. Pet policies and fees change. Confirm with the hotel when you book.
