Pet friendly hotels in Tokyo

Pets usually travel only inside a carrier. JR East requires small pets to remain fully enclosed in a dedicated carrier, including their heads, within its size and combined weight limits. Present the carrier at the gate and obtain a hand luggage ticket.

No. The shared registration for these metropolitan park dog runs requires the current Japanese rabies vaccination tag. Other vaccination documents do not replace that tag, so check eligibility before arranging a visit.

Many pet friendly hotels charge a small cleaning fee, per stay or per night, while others welcome pets for free. Any fee, plus size or number limits, is shown on each hotel before you book.

Every hotel and stay listed here has a pet policy we have checked in our supplier data: room types marked as pets allowed, or a written hotel pet policy. Hotels that only take pets on request are left out. Any size limit and fee is shown on the hotel page before you book.

Bring your pet vaccination and microchip records, a familiar bed or blanket, food, bowls, a lead and waste bags. For international trips, check the entry and pet passport rules for your destination well ahead of travel.

Policies vary. Some hotels allow it if the dog is crated and quiet, others do not. Check the hotel pet policy, and consider a local dog sitter for longer days out.
