Stay like a local when you lodge at Residence Inn Chico. This extended-stay hotel offers spacious suites with modern amenities that make a real difference if you’re spending more than a night or two in town. Each suite comes with a fully equipped kitchen, so you can prepare meals for yourself and your dog without worrying about restaurant schedules or limitations. Complimentary Wi-Fi keeps you connected, and the daily breakfast buffet means you can fuel up before heading out to explore.
The location works well for dog owners. Bidwell Park is nearby and offers plenty of trails where dogs can stretch their legs. Sierra Nevada Brewery and downtown Chico are also close by, though you’ll want to check which businesses allow dogs on their patios or in their spaces. If you need to run errands around town, having a suite with a kitchen gives you flexibility that typical hotel rooms don’t.
The hotel itself has amenities beyond the basic room setup. There’s a 24-hour fitness center if you want to work out while your dog rests in the suite, an outdoor pool for warmer days, and a Sport Court for various activities. The property is designed with longer stays in mind, so you’ll find the space and setup more residential than hotel-like.
One thing worth noting: the complimentary breakfast is served daily in the hotel, so you don’t need to search for a dog-friendly cafe in the morning. You can grab food, head back to your suite if needed, and plan your day from there. Small dogs are welcome, which is the main thing to confirm when booking. The combination of kitchen access, spacious suites, and proximity to Bidwell Park makes this a practical choice if you’re staying for several days and want flexibility around your dog’s routine.
