Don't leave your best friend behind. At the Crowne Plaza - Berkshires we pride ourselves on being a pet friendly hotel. 

Both Fido and Felix are welcome here at the Crowne Plaza. The hotel charges a $50.00 flat pet fee. To make it more affordable the pet fees are per stay, not per night so that you do not have to break the bank when bringing your best friend with you on vacation or business.

Below is a short list of our favorite places to hike with a dog in Berkshire County.  For more information see “Doggin’ The Berkshires by Doug Gelbert, The 33 Best Places To Hike With Your Dog In Western Massachusetts”.
