Canine Gramercy

On the heels of all the hotel REITs that have picked up the pieces multifamily dropped in your stock portfolio, cue the entrance of another boutique hotel chain: Wag Hotels. Notably, they've adopted the second-trendiest element in the hotel industry: calling suites condos ("Our feline guests stay in our two story Cat Condominium.").

(For the latest human hotel trend equivalent, check out Barry Sternlicht's 1 brand venture.)

The third Wag Hotel in California opens its doors this weekend in San Francisco. They "invite you and your dogs to come and see Wag Hotels new location in San Francisco on May 12th and 13th from 10am to 8pm both days. There will be hors d'oeuvres, music, treats and we are giving away 1 year free stay for the lucky dog, and many more free nights."
