    Best hotel on our trip

    This was an excellent hotel. The room was quite nice, and access to the rooms were all indoors. It had a very nice fitness center and knowledgeable staff.

    Good stay

    Great location, especially after a long day out exploring the Great Lakes. The staff made our our two little dogs feel so welcome, especially the doggy treat checking in.

    Very dog friendly

    Very nice BW, dog friendly and clean. Employees are really nice and helpful. Room was clean and the AC was excellent. Dog walking area was cleaned up and was a nice size with very nice grass.

    Great stay!

    Very clean room with a super comfortable bed! Our little dog enjoyed his “vaycay." There’s a neighborhood behind the motel that was really nice to take our dog for walks. We had breakfast outside on the deck. The location is also great close to downtown and the Village of Traverse City Commons where dogs are welcome in the shops. We’ll definitely stay at the Best Western the next time we visit TC!

    Great Hotel

    Friendly check-in. Clean and comfortable room. K-Cup coffee in room and a fun fancy latte machine in the breakfast area. Would definitely stay here again if in the area.

    Great Hotel, Awesome Staff!

    While I didn't end up bringing my pouch as originally planned, I was so impressed with the service of the staff. I would definitely stay here again, with or without dog.

    We love it when our room has a back door to the dog walk area. Plus, the people were very friendly!

    Highly recommend

    We visited for a night and had the absolute best experience. At check-in, staff was welcoming and very friendly! They were excited to talk about our pup and even gave us dog-friendly restaurant recommendations. We got room 125 which has its own private driveway on Davis St. With this, our room had two doors, one going into the hallway and one going directly outside to the pet walk area and our car. Our room was clean, spacious and the bathroom was great! Complimentary breakfast was good as well. We will definitely be coming back to stay here again in the future!

    Autumn in Northern MI

    The property is a welcome destination for dog-owners. The entire staff (and I mean this) loves dogs! They talk to them, they offer treats. It made traveling with our Beagle so much easier. Located close to downtown and the easiest access possible to Mission Point, this is a must-use property.

    Enjoyable visit for all

    We stayed 2 nights and felt comfortable. Nice neighborhood to walk the dog behind the hotel and pleasant, accommodating staff. No issues. We’ll be back 🙂🐶

    Very comfortable stay

    We had a spacious queen room with a loft with bed for our 3 person family. That setup had plenty of room. Room was clean and comfortable. The hotel has a great indoor pool that was kept very warm. There is plenty of sidewalk walking area especially to the west. I walked our dog to Lake Michigan for a swim. Staff was very helpful regarding the pet policy. We would stay here again.

    Great Stay

    Personable staff who are very dog friendly and hotel includes an area to walk dogs with clean up bags and disposal can provided. Front desk also gave our dogs a treat after getting our permission. Would stay here again.

    Very friendly for dogs

    We checked in mid-week with our BIG puppy and reserved a suite on the second floor. The staff was friendly and welcoming. There were patio areas and the common area to sit during breakfast. Dogs were not allowed in the dining area where food was being prepared but seating for us was just a few feet away. We were close to downtown during the film festival and there is no shortage of dog-friendly places in Traverse City.

    Wonderful staff

    We have avoided staying at hotels with our dog for years due to a bad experience. I can’t speak highly enough of this place-especially the staff! The room was sort of secluded so our dog wouldn’t get disturbed by random people walking by & had a little look out for him. The staff gave him all kinds of attention & was kind enough to ask before petting or giving him treats. They were always smiling & telling him what a good boy he was. The dog area was spacious & I could access it through the hotel-which was great or at night or when it was raining. They also had baggies (in case you forgot or yours ripped) & a trash can right there for disposal. Would definitely recommend.

    Better than expected

    The room was very clean, didn't smell like other pets as pet friendly places sometimes do, and it is within walking distance of the lake. Staff was great.

    Very nice!

    Our first hotel trip with a dog and it was great! We had a room very close to the outside doors and a short walk to the dog run. Very clean and quiet. We would definitely go back.

    Great dog friendly hotel

    Great location. Very clean and comfortable rooms. Plenty of outdoor space for dogs to do their business, as well as sidewalks for dogs who need a walk. Poop bags on site if needed. Staff was all very friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay there again

    Only real complaint I have is the small square pillows. Invest in some full size pillows

    Great location, fantastic room!

    We had room #132, which has an upstairs and downstairs with a spiral staircase and a moon window upstairs. This room was sparkling clean with a new bath and sink area, coffee maker and fridge. Both levels have a queen bed and television. Full, grab and go breakfast available in the morning: eggs, toast, oatmeal, fruit, etc. coffee and tea 24 hours and cookies at 6pm! Dog relief area directly outside our door and outer door, complete with doggie disposal bags. You can walk to downtown. (It was 1.6 miles to an outdoor food truck and bar place called Fleet)

    Was a good place just over priced

    Has far as dog friendly the place was good. We were located by the door so we had a great potty area! The staff was nice and loved seeing our puppy .

  • Rick

    Almost a 5

    Almost everything about this hotel is a 5. It’s close enough to downtown while still being in a great neighborhood to walk your best friend and a great place to run. It’s located on a busy highway, but just a block or two behind is a wonderful quiet neighborhood. Staff during Covid was wonderful. If your buddy just goes out and takes care of business they have an area for that, including bags and a waste can. The only area (in my opinion, I’m a rule follower) that doesn’t give them a 5, you can not leave your pooch in the room. Not even when crated. A solid 4.75 out of 5.

    Wonderful Place To Stay!

    We were a little unsure about staying here but we are so happy we did. We even extended our stay a night! Clean rooms, amazing breakfast with some gluten free options, very friendly staff, natural toiletries, and just a comfortable place to rest after exploring.

    Best Dog Friendly Hotel

    The Best Western Plus in Traverse City has excellent customer service, extremely kind and friendly staff. Our room was nice, recently remodeled, and clean. We had a room with its owns entrance which made it wonderful for taking our Labs out late at night. Highly recommended!
