In Shenzhen, pet-friendly apartments are extremely scarce, but playing with the Akita Corgi is so exhilarating

Finding a pet-friendly hotel in the vast city of Shenzhen is really too difficult. Among the few pet-friendly hotels, most of them charge an extra cleaning fee for staying in a pet-themed room, making it tough to take a furry friend on vacation 🐕🐕🐕 I have stayed at the Shenzhen Airport Hilton Hotel twice since its opening, and to my surprise, the building also houses apartments of the same brand. Most importantly, this is one of the very, very scarce pet-friendly apartments in the Shenzhen market. The hotel pet is a little milk corgi named 'Cookie', who steals the show in the official promotional video with its cuteness. Three months have passed, and it has grown quite a bit, attending 'receptions' when there are any, and otherwise chilling in its air-conditioned 'villa' with a large garden 🏡🏡🏡 This time I stayed at the 'Hilton Garden Inn Shenzhen Airport' because a beautiful friend brought my dream dog, an Akita named 'Hamburger', to play. The big silly-faced Akita is really my type, and I seriously want to raise one myself. Since I like it so much, I treated it to a big meal at the 'OPUS All-Day Dining Restaurant' first. It loves shrimp shells and beef like crazy. The restaurant's outdoor dining area is specifically for guests with pets, and in cooperation with Qingdao Beer official, it's also a great place for all types of guests to enjoy a beer outdoors 🍺🍺🍺 The apartment rooms are fully equipped with home appliances like induction cookers, washing machines, and refrigerators. The pet rooms even have special little houses and bowls for pets, although the little house can't fit the large Akita The apartment has its own lobby and pet-walking platform. If you observe carefully, the art paintings on the walls of the public areas are made of wire plastic skins, and some of the artworks are composed of circuit boards and motherboards, which is a very rare industrial style presentation 🔧🔧🔧 Apartment guests can also use the swimming pool and gym for free, and breakfast is served at the 'OPUS All-Day Dining Restaurant' 🍞🍞🍞 This is not your average airport hotel/apartment. Enjoying a staycation here is really fantastic. In short, I will always remember this summer when I made friends with the hotel pet 'Cookie' and the Akita 'Hamburger' and had a great time 🐶🐶🐶 No. 66 Hangcheng Avenue, Bao'an District, Shenzhen (near Gushu Subway Station), 650 yuan per room night 💰💰💰
