Brighton is one of the UK's most dog-welcoming seaside cities, with many hotels allowing well-behaved pets indoors and providing amenities like dog beds, bowls, and welcome treats. Hotels along the seafront offer easy access to beach walks, while city-centre options keep you close to parks and pet-friendly cafés in the Lanes. Budget travellers can find good-value stays at The Brighton Hotel (Best Western, rated Good), while those seeking luxury can opt for historic properties with spa facilities. Typical nightly rates range from £70-£200, and most hotels charge a small extra fee per dog per night.
Top-rated pet-friendly hotels include The Grand Brighton (Fabulous, 89) with its new thermal suite and hydrotherapy pool steps from Brighton Pier, and DoubleTree by Hilton Brighton Metropole (Very Good, 82) offering an indoor pool, sauna, and Victorian grandeur. For marina-side tranquility, Malmaison Brighton (Very Good, 84) provides free parking and outdoor terraces, while Hotel du Vin & Bistro Brighton (Fabulous, 86) features a wine-tasting room and beachfront location. Maldron Hotel Brighton City Centre (Fabulous, 88) delivers modern city-centre comfort with a fitness centre. Always confirm pet policies and book early as dog-friendly rooms fill fast.
