Generally, we review hotels
through the eyes of our staff based on personal visits. But in
the case of the Affinia Manhattan, we decided the best way to
review this pet-welcoming hotel, was through the eyes of Downtown
Winston Brown, an English Springer Spaniel who is a frequent guest
at this well-located New York City gem. Winston, also know as
The Pants, due to the “cowboy chaps” coif created
by his groomer, is a well-traveled pooch with his own frequent-flyer
miles well over six-figures! We chatted with Winston to get the
low-down on the Affinia Manhattan to give you the inside Scoop.

If you’ve ever sailed into the harbor at Portofino, Italy,
or seen a photo of that charming Italian town, you will be awestruck
by the detailed precision with which this European destination
has been recreated at Universal Orlando Resorts’ Portofino
Bay Hotel, a Loews-managed luxury hotel. If you stand at the Portofino
Bay dock area, where water-taxis transport guests from the hotel
to the Universal Orlando theme park and Universal’s City
Walk amusement areas, and look at the panorama of the buildings
and waterfront area created at the Loews Portofino Bay Hotel,
you will find an exact reproduction with the only missing elements
being the tree-covered hills that are part of the background scenery
in Italy!
