Whether your canine traveling companion is named Rex, Bowser, Spot, Asta, Toto, Lassie, or Tramp, Hotel Viking has just started a new program to pamper your "pup-on-vacation" as much or better than you do at home. Doesn't every dog deserve organic gourmet food when he enjoys hotel living in Newport?

		Hotel Viking, located at the top of Newport's Historic Hill and a member of Historic Hotels of America, is convenient to Newport's many attractions, including Newport Harbor and Waterfront. With the character and service of a small boutique hotel, it showcases 209 rooms and suites resonating Old World charm, yet updated with modern amenities. Hotel Viking features the luxurious SpaTerre; fine dining at One Bellevue; over 14,000 square feet of meeting and special occasion space; an historic chapel on property; a 24-hour business center; an indoor pool/whirlpool; and fitness center. With this new service, Hotel Viking welcomes dogs in its Newport Wing and also treats its canine guests to a bag of complimentary organic dog biscuits that can be replenished during their stay at the hotel's front desk. After all, it's a dog's life, isn't it?

Hotel Viking's Canine Room Service available at your fingertips/paws, served daily from 7 to 10 pm. Gourmet food, comfy doggy bedding and accoutrements such as outerwear and leashes are provided for sale by Newport's ritzy dog boutique, Cricket & Riley. It's all a bit of a splurge, but hey -- Rover is your best friend.

Organic offerings that your dog will find chop-licking good are: Dr. Harvey's Veg-to-Bowl and Dr. Harvey's Canine Health Timber Wolf Dry Kibble Food, Nature's Variety Canned Foods using all natural delectable ingredients.

For the fun and peace of mind associated with bringing your best friend along to the Hotel Viking, there is a service fee of $75 per dog, per stay. The good news is that your furry friend can weigh 100 pounds and be 3 feet high, or not.
