Aloft Hotels Celebrate International Dog Day 

From August 26-September 1, pups & their people can enjoy a drink special at select Aloft Hotels’ W xyz bars for International Dog Day. The brand is offering a deal in which anyone who purchases a drink for themselves will receive a free Busch Dog Brew for their dog, served in an ArfSM (Animals R Fun) dog bowl. The doggie “beer” is made with vegetables, herbs, spices, water and pork bone broth. For humans, the beverage experience and cocktail menu at W xyz bar includes a variety of alcoholic and non-alcoholic choices. This offer runs August 26th-September 1st, while supplies last. 

“Our furry best friends are hard-working as service, therapy, military and guard dogs, or simply cuddle-buddies and ball-fetchers,” said Brian Jaymont, Senior Director and Global Brand Leader for Aloft Hotels. “We’re inviting them to take a break and enjoy a drink at our hotels, where dogs are always welcome and treated like VIPs.”
