It can be difficult to travel with a pet in tow, and one of the most complicated steps to planning a pet-friendly vacation can be finding a hotel that will allow them. In Las Vegas, this is as difficult as ever, as most of the well-known hotel properties on the strip and Fremont Street have firm no-pet policies. However, if you have no option but to take your pet along to Las Vegas, there are several pet-friendly budget hotels in town that are close to the city's most famous casinos and golf courses.
Residence Inn Las Vegas Convention Center
The pet-friendly rooms at the Residence Inn Las Vegas Convention Center are all bungalow-style suites with full kitchens, ergonomic work stations, sofa beds, free wired and wireless Internet access and complimentary daily newspaper delivery. The hotel is a short walk from the strip, and its major amenities include an outdoor pool, a whirlpool tub and free continental breakfasts and evening receptions. The Wynn Golf Club is just over a half-mile from the Residence Inn Las Vegas Convention Center.

Pets are welcome, and hotel amenities include an outdoor pool and a restaurant that offers room service. Some rooms have compact refrigerators and microwaves, and all rooms receive daily newspaper delivery. The Las Vegas Country Club is a mile and a half from the Howard Johnson Las Vegas Strip.
