Pet Fees
Varies by brand/property. Many Marriott hotels charge a non-refundable fee of about $75–$150 per stay (some up to ~$200 at high-end locations) . A few brands (e.g. Aloft) have no pet fee at many locations . Refundable damage deposits are not standard chain-wide (some individual hotels may take a deposit).
Weight Limits
Often 50 lbs per pet is a common limit at Marriott hotels . (Some properties allow larger pets or set lower limits – it varies. Extended-stay brands sometimes allow dogs up to ~75–80 lbs.)
Breed Restrictions
None specified chain-wide. Marriott’s policy welcomes well-mannered pets of various breeds . (Individual hotels may exclude aggressive animals at their discretion, but there is no blanket breed ban.)
Max Pets per Room
Typically 2 pets per room max . (Some Marriott brands allow only one pet, others two.)
Types of Pets Permitted
Dogs and cats are accepted at most pet-friendly Marriotts. Official guidelines also allow birds and fish , but exotic pets are generally not accommodated (service animals excepted).
Required Documentation
Generally no special paperwork required. Guests must sign a pet waiver/acceptance form at check-in. Proof of up-to-date vaccinations is not routinely required (though it’s wise to have vet records on hand in case asked).
Pet Friendly Amenities
Many Marriott properties offer pet perks, especially upscale brands. Common amenities include pet beds, food bowls, and treats for guests with pets . Some brands provide special services – e.g. Aloft’s ARF program provides a dog bed, bowl, and goodie bag of treats and toys at no charge .
Other Restrictions
Pets must be leashed or crated in public areas and are not allowed in restaurants, pools, or fitness centers at Marriott hotels (standard policy). Pets should not be left unattended in the room, or only for short periods if crated and the front desk is informed. Housekeeping won’t service a room with an unrestrained pet inside.
Additional Notes
Varies by brand: Many Marriott brands are pet-friendly (e.g. Westin hotels often welcome dogs up to ~40 lbs with no fee, providing Heavenly Dog beds). Other Marriott brands allow pets at some properties but not all – always confirm individual hotel policy . Service animals are allowed at all Marriott hotels with no fee. Marriott has 1,500+ pet-friendly hotels worldwide , so options are extensive, but policies (fees, size limits) can differ widely by location – checking ahead is essential.
