SAN FRANCISCO — For anyone guilty of hugging strangers’ dogs on the streets, or cancelling plans to stay home with their pooch, there’s a hotel in San Francisco that will make their dog-loving hearts melt.
Hotel Nikko, a pet-friendly hotel, is offering cuddle time with its resident dog, Buster Presutti Posey, as part of its room service. Hotel guests simply need to call down to reception to see if Buster’s free for a hug.
The adorable pooch has been living at the hotel since 2015 as its official COO (Canine Operating Officer). As written on the hotel’s website, Buster knew from the moment he was born that he was destined for a career in hospitality. “I get to spend time with guests doing what I love – making people smile!”, he ‘writes’.
Buster is just chomping at the bit to take selfies with guests, and judging by his Instagram account (yes, he has his own account), tons of people have already signed up for some Buster time. Check out some of our favourite photos:
Guests are also invited to bring their own lovable pups (60 pounds or less) to the hotel for US$50/night. Four-legged guests will receive dog beds, bowls and treats. The hotel also recently renovated its patio area with a dog-run open from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m.
We give this hotel four paws up!
