Going on a trip is especially hard for pet owners who have to succumb to leaving their furkids behind. But now that we’ve got options, we’re taking our fur-children to these pet-friendly hotels when we get a chance:
Seremban
1. The Dusun – Located within the Berembun Forest Reserve, The Dusun served a family as a quiet retreat away from the city. The family now shares this experience by refurbishing the place into a serene getaway for weekenders who want a break from the hustle and bustle. The Dusun is pet-friendly but be sure to call in advance to ensure that they can accommodate your pet.
The Dusun, 3437, Kampung Kolam Air, Mukim Pantai, 71770 Seremban, Negeri Sembilan.
2. Awanmulan – Awanmulan is another nature retreat we love, only a short distance away from Kuala Lumpur. The private retreat is basically a collection of small homes in the hills of Negeri Sembilan, and it’s the perfect place to log off after a long week in the city. If you’re planning on bringing a pet, Awanmulan has a couple of houses that can accommodate pets with prior arrangements.

Ipoh
3. Sekeping Kong Heng – The latest addition to the Sekeping family of retreats, Sekeping Kong Heng is a 3 storey neo-classical building located in the charming old town of Ipoh. Testimony to Ipoh’s decadent past, Kong Heng was used as a hostel to for theatre performers in the adjacent theatre building in the 50s. Guests with pets are restricted to certain rooms, so be sure to call ahead to make arrangements.
