Dog-Friendly B&Bs/small hotels??
Does anyone know of any dog-friendly B&Bs, small hotels France/Spain? We're driving down through France and Spain at the end of February and wondered if anyone had any experience/recommendations besides the Campaniles? We have quite a few in France but Spain seems to be more of a problem. Thanks.

Ibis hotels have rooms where you're allowed to take dogs, and all the Alistair Sawday books (Special Places to Stay France/Spain) have info about which ones take dogs.

Thanks for those replies. We've sat down with our route today and seem to now have it pretty well covered with Campanile and Ibis all the way through.

I may be too late to help the original poster, but I understand these people pawsforawalkhave a list of dog-friendly places in France (and are building up a list of other places in Europe). If nothing else, it's a nice catchy name!

In France : "Je voyage avec mon chien" is THE book ( preface by Brigitte Bardot ) ;
on the other hand , accommodation notwithstanding : the Spanish are very much less dog-friendly than the French , from my own experience .
Good Luck !

I have the theory that it may be because , on the whole.. generally speaking The Spanish people don't train their animals & therefore expect them not to behave ? ( I have no intention to offend, it is just from observation. )
Germany, Switzerland, Austria, France have all been most welcoming in my experience.
