“No expense has been spared catering for the needs of pampered pooches set to check-in to New York City’s first luxury hotel for dogs. Set to open in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood next month, the plush accommodation aims to ensure man’s best friend ‘gets the same quality [hotel] as a human being does’. Cared for canines can trade in their kennels for a comfy night’s sleep in a double bed, or wind down by catching a film in their room on a bespoke flat-screen TV. ‘As a New Yorker, when you go on vacation, and you stay in a fabulous hotel, with fabulous services, your dog is staying in a fabulous hotel with fabulous services,’ explained investor Shawn Hassanzadeh.” w/ photos
