    logo_elportalsedonaSedona AZ (September 9, 2013) – El Portal Sedona Hotel has been voted “Best Pet Friendly Hotel in the United States” by USA Today and 10.best.com readers, users and travelers. This pet friendly hotel is located in the arts and crafts district of Sedona, Arizona and caters to discerning guests and their pets.

    The property was designed with pets in mind, and pets are always welcomed as a part of travelers’ families. This pet friendly Sedona hotel welcomes pets with a treat basket and there are no fees for pets. Owner Steve Segner says, “We are thrilled with being voted as America’s best pet friendly hotel! We actually want all our guests to have a ‘non-hotel’ kind of experience, where they can meet other guests and locals for a true Sedona experience.”

    20130909_elportalTo celebrate this achievement, El Portal is offering guests the second night free when they stay one night Sunday-Thursday for the month of September. This package also includes a $100 credit for a two hour jeep excursion with Safari Jeep Adventures. Take an incredible sight-seeing tour of Sedona – magical place! Remember, there are no pet fees at El Portal – Sedona’s and now the U.S.A’s best pet friendly hotel. (Please call for details 1.800.313.0017).
