If you're road-tripping up to Nainital and need a pet friendly stay in Sukha, Uttarakhand, Dostel Bhowali sits right on the Bhowali-Nainital Road, close to the Punjab National Bank landmark, making it an easy stop for pet parents heading into the hills. It's a hostel-style property that keeps things simple: dogs and cats are welcome, and there's no extra cost for bringing them along. For anyone planning travel with dogs in Sukha, that clarity upfront matters more than most amenities.
🐾 For pet parents
Pets stay free, no extra charge, at Dostel Bhowali, and both dogs and cats of all sizes are allowed with no breed restrictions confirmed. This was checked directly with the property: our verifier Gaurav called the hostel on 25 September 2026 and spoke with Surendra Pedi, the owner, who confirmed pets are welcome without any additional fees or conditions attached. If you're travelling with a large dog or a mixed group of pets, this is one of the few spots in the area where you don't need to negotiate or explain yourself at check-in.
The Stay
Dostel Bhowali functions as a hostel along the Bhowali-Nainital stretch, a route most travellers heading toward Nainital or the surrounding hill towns will pass through anyway. Its location near the Punjab National Bank makes it easy to find and a practical base if you're breaking up a longer drive with your dog or cat rather than pushing straight through to Nainital.
For pet parents doing a hill-station run from the plains, a stop like this in Sukha works well as either an overnight halt or a base to explore Bhowali and nearby Nainital without worrying about pet charges eating into the budget.
Pet Policy
Dostel Bhowali allows both dogs and cats, with all dog sizes accepted and no breed restrictions confirmed. Pets stay free, no extra charge, and the on-property confirmation from owner Surendra Pedi noted no additional restrictions beyond the standard welcome. Specific details such as designated pet areas, food or bedding arrangements were not part of the confirmed information, so it's worth confirming these directly with the property when you book.
