Fees, counts and size limits — what to expect
Hewing Hotel applies a pet fee per stay; published amounts vary by booking source. Some listings show $75 per stay while others list $100 per stay. Bookings through third-party sites may display different fee rules.
Most sources allow up to two pets per reservation. One listing cites a maximum weight of 125 pounds per pet while another source states there are no size or breed restrictions. Because policies differ by source and over time, confirm the fee and weight rules with your booking channel or the hotel before arrival.
- Pet fee: quoted at $75–$100 per stay depending on booking source.
- Number of pets: up to two per reservation (per listing).
- Size/breed limits: sources conflict — one lists 125 lb max, another lists no size/breed restrictions.
- Service animals: exempt from pet fees.
| Policy item | What sources say |
|---|---|
| Pet fee (per stay) | $75–$100 (varies by booking source) |
| Number of pets | Up to two per reservation (listed) |
| Weight/breed limits | Conflicting info — 125 lb max cited by one source; another lists no restrictions |
What the hotel provides for dogs
Hewing Hotel supplies basic pet amenities so you don’t need to pack bowls for short stays. The property specifically provides food and water bowls for traveling dogs.

- Provided: food and water bowls.
- Not listed: guaranteed in-room dog beds, grooming, or pet-sitting (ask front desk).
- Service animals are accommodated throughout the property without fee.

Rules and common-sense expectations
Hewing Hotel is a 100% non-smoking property; pet owners should follow the same no-smoking and no-vaping rules and keep pets off smoking-designated areas (unless otherwise posted). Keep dogs leashed in public areas and under control.
Cleaning fees or damage charges may apply if a pet causes damage or excessive cleaning is required; those charges are handled at check-out or billed to the card on file. Service animals are treated separately and are not subject to pet fees.
- Keep dogs leashed and supervised in public spaces.
- Do not leave pets unattended for extended periods — check with the front desk for housekeeping arrangements.
- Damages or excessive cleaning may incur additional charges to the guest’s card on file.
| Behavior | Hotel expectation |
|---|---|
| Leashed in public | Yes |
| Left alone in room | Permitted but manage noise/housekeeping; contact front desk |
| Excessive damage/soiling | May result in extra charges |
Rooftop, pool and wellness access with dogs
The Rooftop at Hewing Hotel — including the heated year-round spa pool, sauna, fire pits and bar/lounge — is restricted to registered guests 21 and older. That restriction applies regardless of whether a guest is traveling with a pet.
Pets are not described as permitted in the Rooftop pool, sauna, or indoor bar areas. If you plan to visit Rooftop spaces during your stay, arrange pet care off-site or leave dogs in the room while an adult guest who is 21+ uses the Rooftop amenities.
- Rooftop access: guests 21+ only (spa pool and sauna reserved for registered guests 21+).
- Day passes: limited day passes are sold for non-overnight public access (Thurs–Sun, 11 AM–5 PM) — those passes are for people, not pets.
- Pool/sauna: no information indicates pets are allowed in the pool or sauna; assume pets must remain off those areas.
| Amenity | Pet access |
|---|---|
| Rooftop spa pool | Not indicated as pet-friendly |
| Rooftop sauna | Not indicated as pet-friendly |
| Rooftop bar/lounge | Restricted to guests 21+; pet access not listed |
