The Castle Hotel is right in the heart of the Orlando’s tourism district. International Drive is a bustling strip, but feel free to take your pet for a walk in the early morning or late afternoon. Afterwards, spend some time refreshing by the pool with your furry friend. The hotel’s pet policy allows two pets per room – there is a 40lb weight limit and $150 non-refundable fee for the first animal and $50 for the second – meaning everyone can come along and enjoy sunny Orlando.

You’ll love how close the DoubleTree is to some of Orlando’s top attractions, such as SeaWorld, Aquatica and Discovery Cove. This pet-friendly Orlando hotel allows medium-size pets up to 70 pounds. There is a $25 fee to bring your pet, but it’s worth it knowing your dog or cat is nearby.
