Pet-Friendly Hotels in Frisco Texas

The best pet-friendly hotels Frisco TX are the Hyatt Regency at Stonebriar Centre, the Westin Dallas Stonebriar, the Omni Frisco Hotel at The Star for small dogs, and a run of Hilton-family suite hotels, from Homewood Suites to Hampton Inn & Suites. Fees, weight caps and pet counts differ a lot, so the real decision is your dog’s size.

This guide is for anyone bringing a dog (or, less often, a cat) to Frisco for a game, a tournament, a shopping weekend or a move-in week. The one caveat that matters: pet rules change by property and by season, so confirm before you pay. Checked September 30, 2026. If you are still choosing a base, start with our complete guide to where to stay in Frisco.

How pet policies really work at Frisco hotels

A “pet-friendly” label on a booking site tells you almost nothing. It means the hotel accepts at least some animals in at least some rooms, and that is where the useful information ends. The details that decide whether your stay goes smoothly sit in the policy page, and a few of them are worth understanding before you compare prices.

Fees: per night, per stay or one time

Hotels in the Dallas area charge for pets three different ways. Some charge a flat amount per night, which is painless for a single night and expensive for a week. Some charge per stay, often with a cap, such as a fee that covers up to seven nights. And some charge a single non-refundable fee per reservation. The same $100 looks very different depending on which model it belongs to.

Do the math on your actual length of stay. A $50 nightly fee is cheaper than a $250 flat fee for a four-night trip, and more expensive for a seven-night one. A fee that covers a block of seven nights is a bargain if you are staying a week and a little steep for a single night. Add the taxes on top: Frisco’s hotel occupancy tax is 7% and the state adds 6%, for 13% combined, and hotels with 75 or more rooms also pass through a 2% tourism assessment under Frisco’s Tourism PID. Whether a given hotel adds tax to the pet fee is something the front desk can tell you, and it is an easy question to ask.

Weight limits, pet counts and breeds

Two pets is the most common cap in this market. Weight limits come in two flavors: a limit per animal, or a combined limit for everything in the room. A 100-pound combined cap lets you bring a single large dog or two medium ones. A 25-pound cap, on the other hand, rules out most labs and shepherds and anything with a big-dog frame. A few brands also keep breed restrictions, so if you have a bully breed, a husky mix or anything a front-desk clerk might squint at, ask in plain words and ask by email so you have it in writing.

What “unattended” means

Almost every hotel on the list says pets may not be left alone in the room. Some allow it if the animal is crated and you leave a cell number. Some do not allow it at all. If you plan to go to a Cowboys practice, a long dinner or a full day at a tournament, this line in the policy matters more than the fee. We come back to the practical solutions further down.

Which pet-friendly hotels Frisco TX visitors should actually book?

The numbers below come from each hotel’s published policy as found in September 2026. Treat them as a starting point and confirm them directly, because pet fees are among the things hotels adjust without announcement.

Hyatt Regency Frisco-Dallas

The Hyatt Regency is attached to Stonebriar Centre by an indoor breezeway, which is a bigger deal for dog owners than it sounds. It opened on June 1, 2020 as an 18-story, 303-room tower at Preston Road and the Sam Rayburn Tollway, and its published policy welcomes dogs at roughly $100 per stay for up to seven nights, with two pets and a combined weight cap of 100 pounds.

That combined cap is the useful part. It covers a single 90-pound lab, or a pair of beagles, without anyone measuring your dog at check-in. A rooftop pool and several restaurants and bars are on site, but the pool is for people, so the dog-specific amenities come down to what the surrounding sidewalks and lawns give you. On a cool morning, the tower’s neighborhood is easy to loop. In July, plan your walks for before 8 a.m. or after sunset.

Verdict: the best all-round pick for a big dog or two medium ones, particularly on a stay of a week or less. You pay once, not nightly, and the hotel sits among things to do that do not require you to drive.

The Westin Dallas Stonebriar Golf Resort & Spa

The Westin sits on roughly 400 acres next to the Fazio course at Stonebriar Country Club. Its published policy charges about $50 per night for pets, accepts dogs only and allows two. The nightly structure makes it the more expensive choice for a long stay and a fair one for a weekend.

What you get for that money is space. There are more grounds than at most hotels in town, and for a dog that has spent the day in a car, open lawn matters. The resort also has a pool area with cabanas, a waterslide and a splash pad, and a spa. None of those are for the dog, but they are good for the rest of the family while the dog naps in the room (assuming the hotel allows that, which you should confirm for this property before you rely on it).

Verdict: worth it for a golf or resort weekend, less so for a week-long stay where the nightly fee stacks up. If you’re weighing this against the PGA property, the luxury hotel roundup compares the two.

Omni Frisco Hotel at The Star

If your trip is built around The Star, this is the closest hotel, and it is also the strictest in this group. The published policy accepts animals under 25 pounds, charges a one-time non-refundable fee of about $250 per reservation and requires a kennel at check-in, with the pet staying in the kennel whenever it is unsupervised in the room.

That is a policy written for small dogs, and it works well for them. A terrier or a Chihuahua with a travel crate is fine. A retriever is not. The fee is also the highest here, but because it is a one-time charge it becomes competitive on a longer stay. Drive time from here to AT&T Stadium in Arlington is about 35 miles, roughly 39 minutes without traffic, and game days run much longer, which is worth remembering if your plan includes a Cowboys home game. Our Omni Frisco Hotel guide covers rooms and what the stay is like beyond the pet terms.

Verdict: a good fit for a small dog and a Star-centered weekend. Skip it if your dog weighs more than a carry-on bag.

Omni PGA Frisco Resort

The Omni PGA Frisco is a 500-room resort on a 600-acre campus that includes the PGA of America’s headquarters, two championship courses and an entertainment district. It is the most dog-walkable property on this list in terms of ground covered, with paths and open space you can use before breakfast. We could not confirm the resort’s current pet terms from a primary source, so we are not quoting a fee or a weight limit here. Call the hotel, or check the pet policy on the resort’s page, and get the answer in writing before you book. Our Omni PGA Frisco review covers the rooms, pools and restaurants.

Verdict: ask first. If the terms fit your dog, the campus suits a dog owner well. If they do not, the Westin and the Hyatt give you similar golf-and-resort energy for less paperwork.

The Hilton-family suite hotels

Hilton’s own pet-friendly page for Frisco lists a long run of properties: Hampton Inn & Suites Legacy Park-Frisco, Homewood Suites by Hilton Dallas-Frisco, Home2 Suites by Hilton Dallas-Frisco, Hilton Garden Inn Frisco, Embassy Suites by Hilton Dallas Frisco Hotel & Convention Center, Tru by Hilton Frisco Dallas, Canopy by Hilton Dallas Frisco Station, Hampton Inn & Suites Dallas/Frisco North-Fieldhouse, and Hilton Dallas/Plano Granite Park just across the line in Plano. The page does not list fees, so those are a phone call or a booking-page check away, and they can differ from one property to the next.

Why they matter: suites. Homewood Suites has complimentary breakfast and sits about two miles from the Dallas North Tollway, with Stonebriar nearby. Home2 Suites is off SH 121 near the tollway, next to the mall, with daily hot breakfast. Hampton Inn & Suites Legacy Park is about two miles from the Ford Center at The Star and includes free hot breakfast and WiFi. If you are staying more than two or three nights, a room with a kitchen, a separate sleeping area and a free breakfast makes life with a dog much easier. Verdict: the practical choice for week-long stays, and the best value if you need room and a fridge. Confirm the exact fee and pet cap when you book, and ask for a ground-floor room or one near an exit.

Can you stay with a big dog, two dogs or a cat?

Yes, with a bit of homework. The answer depends on which of the three constraints you are up against.

Big dogs. The Hyatt Regency’s 100-pound combined limit is the most generous of the published policies we found, and the Westin’s two-dog allowance works if your dogs are not huge. Suite hotels are the next best bet. Skip the Omni at The Star entirely for any dog above the 25-pound threshold. If your dog is over 80 pounds, call the front desk and describe the dog, not only the number on the scale.

Two dogs. Most policies cap at two, and some charge per animal, so ask whether the fee and weight limit are per room or per pet.

Cats. Rules vary more. Some hotels that say pets are welcome mean dogs only, and the Westin, for example, is listed as dogs only. If you have a cat, call and ask before you book, and have a carrier, a travel litter box and a plan for housekeeping. Cats are also much more likely than dogs to bolt through an open door, so use the do-not-disturb sign.

What about service animals and emotional support animals?

The rules for service animals are different from pet rules, and they come from federal law rather than hotel policy. Under the Americans with Disabilities Act, a service animal is a dog individually trained to do work or perform tasks for a person with a disability. A hotel cannot charge a pet fee or a deposit for a service dog, and staff may ask only two questions: whether the dog is a service animal required because of a disability, and what work or task it has been trained to perform.

Emotional support animals are not service animals under the ADA, which means hotels can treat an emotional support animal as a regular pet, including applying the usual fee and limits. If you travel with an emotional support animal, book as you would for a pet, and do not assume the fee will be waived. If you travel with a service dog, you do not need a “pet-friendly” room, although a call to the front desk to arrange a room near a relief area is a courtesy that pays off.

Which Frisco hotel fits the trip you’re taking?

The right hotel depends on where your days will go, since a dog changes how much driving you want to do.

Game days at The Star. The hotels near The Star are the obvious choice, but small dogs are the only ones the Omni can take. For a bigger dog, stay at a pet-friendly hotel on the Stonebriar side and drive over. The Stonebriar cluster to The Star is typically 10 to 15 minutes off-peak, more around an event.

A shopping weekend. The Hyatt Regency connects to the mall, and Home2 Suites and Homewood Suites are a short drive away. Bear in mind that most of the mall’s indoor spaces do not welcome dogs beyond service animals, so this is a weekend where your dog spends more time in the room than on the trip, and the no-unattended rule matters again.

Golf. The Westin at Stonebriar or the Omni PGA campus, pets permitting. Golf rounds run four to five hours, and that is a long time to leave a dog. If your plan involves a long round, arrange dog care first.

Tournaments and youth sports. Frisco hosts a steady stream of these, and the hotels fill up well ahead. Book a pet-friendly room early, since a limited number of rooms are set aside for animals. A suite with a separate living area helps when the whole team family is squeezed into one room. The best time to visit Frisco guide helps you avoid the busiest weekends.

What do you do with your dog while you’re out in Frisco?

This is the question most pet-friendly hotel guides skip, and it is the one that ends up deciding whether the trip is fun. You have found a room that accepts your dog. Now comes the matter of your days.

Treat Texas heat as a planning constraint

From roughly June through September, afternoon highs in the Frisco area regularly climb into the upper 90s and sometimes above 100. Pavement is much hotter than the air, which is a problem for paws. Walk at dawn or after dark, carry water, and never leave a dog in a parked car, even with the windows cracked and even for a quick errand. Spring and fall are kinder to everyone.

Day care, sitters and boarding

For golf, a long game-day schedule or a sit-down dinner, the most reliable plan is a daycare or a sitter booked in advance. Frisco has no shortage of daycare and boarding businesses, but they fill up around holidays and big events, and most require proof of vaccinations, often including Bordetella. Your hotel’s front desk will know the nearby providers and the ones guests actually use.

Parks, trails and patios

Frisco Commons Park, which travel listings describe as having a designated dog area, is a simple place to burn off energy, and the city’s trail network is a good bet for walking a leashed dog. Visit Frisco also publishes a dog-friendly Frisco guide worth a look before you go. Patio dining is the other easy win: many restaurants that allow dogs do so only on outdoor patios, and policies are set by each restaurant, so check before you sit down. Indoor spaces, including most shops at the big malls, are off limits except to service animals.

Pack like the hotel will not have anything

Do not count on a loaner bed or bowls. Pack:

1. The dog’s own bed or blanket, which smells like home and protects hotel bedding.
2. A collapsible bowl and enough food for the entire trip.
3. A crate if your dog is used to one; some hotels require it when you leave the room.
4. Waste bags, plus a few extra.
5. Vaccination records, stored on your phone.
6. A towel for muddy paws after a rainy walk.
7. Any medications, and the name of a 24-hour emergency vet you found before you arrived.

Hotel, rental or something else?

If your dog is big, you are staying a week or more, or you want a yard, a vacation rental can beat a hotel. Hosts set their own pet rules and fees, which means the range is wide, from free to a hefty cleaning charge. Read the listing’s pet section, then message the host before you book. Frisco regulates short-term rentals through a city ordinance and collects the 7% local occupancy tax on them. Our guide to Airbnbs and vacation rentals in Frisco lays out the trade-offs, including how to spot a listing that is pet-friendly in name only.

Verdict: hotel for a weekend, suite hotel for a week, rental if you have a large dog, several dogs or a long stay.

Planning your stay: getting there, parking, timing and what to skip

Getting there

Most visitors fly into DFW Airport, which is typically 30 to 45 minutes from Frisco off-peak and an hour or more in rush hour. If you fly with a dog, check the airline’s pet rules well ahead, and plan your dog’s relief break before the rental-car trip north. Driving in from Oklahoma or Dallas means the Dallas North Tollway, SH 121 (the Sam Rayburn Tollway) or US 380, and all of them get crowded at rush hour. Budget for tolls.

When to go

Fall is the easiest season for dog owners in Frisco, with comfortable mornings and fewer heat warnings. Winter is generally mild, with the occasional cold snap. Late spring can bring heavy storms, and some dogs panic at thunder, so pack a calming plan. Summer works if you accept the early-morning and after-sunset rule. The Frisco travel tips and safety guide covers weather and other local things to keep in mind.

What to book and what to skip

Get the pet policy in writing, book daycare for any all-day plan, and take a suite for stays over three nights. Skip a hotel that will not commit to its policy, and skip leaving a dog alone in the room: one barking complaint can end a stay. Our Frisco vacation planning guide pulls together the rest of the itinerary, and our upcoming articles on the best hotels with pools and the best neighborhoods to stay in will help you narrow the area once you know the dog’s size. If you want the broader view of the market, the Frisco hotel guide sorts every district by trip type.

Frequently asked questions about pet-friendly hotels in Frisco

Are there pet-friendly hotels in Frisco TX?

Yes. The Hyatt Regency Frisco-Dallas, the Westin Dallas Stonebriar and the Omni Frisco Hotel at The Star all accept dogs under their published policies, and Hilton lists a long run of pet-friendly Frisco properties including Homewood Suites, Home2 Suites and Hampton Inn & Suites. Terms differ, so confirm the fee and weight cap before you book.

How much do pet-friendly hotels in Frisco charge?

It depends on the hotel. As of September 2026, published policies ranged from roughly $50 per night at the Westin and about $100 per stay at the Hyatt Regency to a one-time fee around $250 at the Omni at The Star. Fees can change, and some hotels charge per animal, so ask what the total will be for your dates.

Which Frisco hotels allow large dogs?

The Hyatt Regency Frisco-Dallas lists a combined weight limit of 100 pounds for up to two pets, which is the most generous published cap we found. The Westin accepts dogs, and suite hotels often work for bigger dogs too. The Omni at The Star limits pets to under 25 pounds, so it is not an option for a large dog.

Can I leave my dog alone in a Frisco hotel room?

Often not. Many hotels say pets may not be left unattended, and some allow it only if the dog is crated. The Hyatt Regency and the Westin both state that pets cannot be left alone. Check the rule before you book, and line up a sitter or daycare for long outings.

Do hotels charge fees for service dogs?

No. Under the Americans with Disabilities Act, a hotel cannot charge a pet fee or deposit for a service dog, which is a dog trained to perform tasks for a person with a disability. Emotional support animals are not covered by the same rule, so they are usually treated as pets and charged the standard fee.

Are there pet-friendly hotels near The Star in Frisco?

Yes, the Omni Frisco Hotel at The Star accepts dogs under 25 pounds for a one-time fee and requires a crate when the pet is alone in the room. For a larger dog, stay at a pet-friendly hotel in the Stonebriar area and drive about 10 to 15 minutes to The Star. Event days can add time.

Are dogs allowed at Frisco restaurants and shops?

Mostly on patios, at the restaurant’s discretion, and rarely inside. Shops and malls generally allow only service animals indoors. Call ahead to confirm a restaurant’s patio policy, and bring water for your dog. Outdoor spaces like parks and trails are the better bet, but keep your dog leashed.

Final thoughts

Choose the hotel by your dog, not the other way around. A big dog points you to the Hyatt Regency or a suite hotel, a small dog opens up the Omni at The Star, and a golf weekend makes the Westin worth the nightly fee. Whatever you pick, get the policy and total fee in writing and book daycare before you need it. Once you have narrowed it down, the Frisco hotel guide and our luxury and budget roundups will help you with the rest.
