A LUXURIOUS Hotel opens its doors to welcoming pets as guests for the holiday season.
Like human beings, these furry, four-legged pets would be charged per night, but pit bulls are not welcomed.
This week, the Southern Sun group has announced the first SunPet friendly hotel in Cape Town.
The SunSquare Cape Town Gardens is the new SunPet friendly hotel.
On arrival, pets will be welcomed with a treat, pet bedding and access to a selection of bowls, mats as well as toys among other conveniences during their stay, the hotel said.
It said several rooms were selected for the pet-friendly conversion.
“These were refurbished and fitted with hygienic vinyl flooring to provide both comfort and practicality for guests and their pets to ensure a relaxed and enjoyable stay,” said the hotel.
The hotel’s general manager, Richard Keet, said
his team is ready to welcome pets as new guests.
He said: “We understand that for many people, their pets are part of their family, so travelling without them is unthinkable. The location and facilities at SunSquare Cape Town Gardens lend themselves to welcoming pets, so the decision to convert it to a pet-friendly hotel has been quite natural and involved a simple refurbishment,” said Keet.
He said the conversion also included attention being given to the dining experience.
“SunPets are invited to join their families on the terrace for breakfast, lunch or dinner, and everything in between at our trendy Zepi restaurant. Pet meals can also be ordered from the SunPet gourmet menu, which offers a range of nutritious and delicious individually packaged dishes made with real ingredients,” said Keet.

Operations director for Southern Sun’s Western Cape region Samantha Clingham said: “The SunSquare Cape Town Gardens team has done a great job of opening to the pet-friendly market, and we are excited to welcome a new profile of guests to what could soon become the most popular pet-friendly destination in Cape Town.”
SunPet friendly rooms are available at an additional surcharge of R250 per room per night, with a once-off R500 non-refundable payment per stay.
