Does Sonesta allow pets?

Part of Sonesta International Hotels.

Sonesta states that all of its hotels are pet friendly under its PAWS (Pets Are Welcome at Sonesta) program, welcoming dogs and cats, with most properties also accepting small domestic pets, and typically permitting up to two pets per room or suite with no breed or height restrictions. Sonesta states that pet fees vary by location and encourages guests to check with the individual hotel for applicable fees and policies, so no chain-wide fee amount or range is published. Sonesta states there is no fee for service animals as defined by the ADA, while emotional support animals are not treated as service animals and remain subject to PAWS terms.

This is the group policy, not one hotel's price

Sonesta lets each property set its own fee, so the figures above are the chain's position and not what any given hotel charges. Check the hotel's own page for its terms, and confirm with the front desk when you book.
