Dog paradise
The brainchild of Barry Karacostas, this luxury hotel is nothing less than a dog paradise. Karacostas, a.k.a. @thedogjogger, wanted to create a lavish space for canines to have their own pet-friendly sleepaway camp experience while their owners might be exploring the world.
Urban Mutts caters both to local, London-based dogs and jet-setting canines. The initiation fee covers the lifetime of a dog and allows liberty to choose any services the owner wants for his pooch.
