The Mercure Hotels 'Happy Tails' Package is a newly created option for pet owners in order to let them bring their furry friend with them when they travel. The package enables travelers to stay at one of the brand's 42 selected hotels that comes at a cost of £15 per night with optional dinners such as Beef Tartare and Salmon Sashimi available for an additional charge.
The Mercure Hotels 'Happy Tails' Package was explained by the Marketing Director Midscale Brands, Uk & Ireland, Laila Abdin, when she said, "We know how important pets are to our guests, and how hard it is to leave them behind so we hope that both canine and human guests will love the new menu. We love having dogs to stay at our pet-friendly properties, but of course also welcome humans too!"
