Get Outside
Central Park offers 23 dog-friendly areas, including the North Meadow Dog Run and the Great Lawn. Dogs can run off-leash in enclosed spaces and enjoy walking trails throughout the park. It's the perfect destination for pet owners looking to enjoy the outdoors with their furry companions, steps from the Empire.
Dine with your Pup
Located just across the street from the Empire Hotel, The Smith is an American brasserie that offers a wide selection of comfort food and welcomes furry friends on its outdoor patio. While enjoying the vibrant atmosphere, you and your four-legged companion can take in the scenic views of Lincoln Square.
Grooming Services
Biscuits and Bath is a top-notch dog grooming facility just a few blocks away, offering services such as bathing, haircuts, and nail trimming, as well as daycare, training, and boarding services. This Upper West Side dog groomer is dedicated to providing high-quality care for dogs of all breeds and sizes.
Pet Policies
To make our pet-friendly hotel as comfortable as possible for both your pet and our staff, we ask that humans be in the room during housekeeping services. You can leave your pet in the room unattended while housekeeping is present as long as your dog or cat is secured in a crate. All pets staying at the Empire Hotel must be leashed in public areas. Service animals are exempt from our pet policies and from any pet deposit charge or fee that is in place. Emotional Support Animals do not qualify as Service Animals under this policy. If you have specific questions about staying with your pet or service animal, please reach out to us.
Pet Fees: One-Time Non-Refundable Fee of $100 + $25 per night (Nightly fees are waived when you book the Empire Hotel Pet Package)
