Although it’s possible to find several attractive dog-friendly Las Vegas hotels close to The Strip, until now the only dog-friendly hotel on The Strip was the Four Seasons. Mandalay Bay’s THEhotel has changed that, however, with an announcement that it too will accept dogs as guests (when I called, the customer service rep told me that the designated rooms are in the “800 wing of the 22nd floor”).

The new THEhotel pet policy allows up to two pets (with a combined weight of less than 30 lbs.) to stay with you, for a fee of $50 per day, per dog. That’s a pretty stern policy — the Four Seasons, by contrast, has no pet fee — but I thought you should know about the option.
