FAQs for you & your furry friends
Planning your pet-friendly route in Los Angeles
Travelling with your pup in LA? Here are some insider tips to keep things smooth and sniff-friendly:
Public Transport: Dogs are allowed on Metro buses and trains if they’re in a carrier. Service animals are welcome at all times, but for pets, stick to off-peak hours when it’s less crowded.
Taxis & Rideshares: Most Lyft and Uber drivers will allow dogs, especially if you message ahead. For guaranteed pet access, use Uber Pet when booking.
On Foot: Our Downtown LA hotel is in a walkable area with access to Grand Park, LA State Historic Park, and shady sidewalks — ideal for morning walkies or an evening sniffari.
Day Trips: Heading to the beach? Rosie’s Dog Beach in Long Beach is worth the drive — it’s off-leash and totally tail-wag approved.
