this movie is very good. and almost 100% kid friendly. however, the workers at the pound treat dogs like they are just nothing more than some mangey muts of trouble, and they act as if they must be eliminated. the kids sneek out food from thier foster parents home without permission. they also "cheat" by selling fake cell phones at a pawn shop. towards the end of the movie, the foster parents discover the hotel for strays and use the word "crap" a couple times. also at the end, two of the teenage characters share a lovely kiss. on the good side, the kids and the guy searching for thier new homes, would often remind everyone that the dogs are not just mangy muts of trouble, but they are also family. but because of the use of "crap", i recommend it for kids 8+.

Don Cheadle does his best (as do the kid actors), which help Hotel for Dogs maintain decency
Hotel for Dogs will probably go down in history as the first pet movie to be entertaining (unlike Marley and Me, which was rubbish). Unfourtunately, it doesn't make a stride to be unpredictable or truly comedic. For instance, the jokes are clean and funny enough, but they don't quite feel like they belong in a comedy. More like slapstick actionier. Still, Hotel for Dogs features some great performances (most notably from Don Cheadle) and gives kids a great message. Content issues: There are some kisses, as well as a few flirty remarks towards girls. But I am scraping the barrel, since there really isn't anything (technically) wrong with this movie. Kids might get scared at a tense part in the beginning, so this is best left for ages 6+.

Cute, but a bit boring...
My title says it all. I mean, it's not like I hated the movie. But, I've seen wayyyy better dog movies then this. There was good messages in it though. The acting was pretty bad. If you like cute, short dog movies watch this. Otherwise, don't.

Great storyline!
Hotel for dogs is a great movie for dog lovers. It has some really sad parts in it but has a really good storyline. There are two kids that live in this foster home. They cause all sorts of trouble. Also they have this secret dog, he wonders the streets sometimes, his name is Friday. The three of them are being chased by the police and run into this run down hotel. There, they find lots of other dogs and decide to take care of them. This is a must see movie and i really enjoyed it.

quite good but there are better dog films.
This film isn't the best ever dog film made, there are better dog movies out there, but, it's not exactly the worst either. Hotel For Dogs is funny and cute but I have seen better.

Best movie for all ages!!!
This movie is actually appropriate for all ages, and I can accept that kids of all ages can watch this, cause these kids in the film helps the dogs to make a big home for the dogs. Weh, there are some consumerism shown, such as Pedigree dog food. And the language they say is "stupid", "idiot", "shut up", "crap", and "sue (such as suing people)". And there are alot of slapstick violence, Romeo and juliet (dog versions) kissed in some parts, teenagers flirt and kiss. And its all right though, please alot of toddlers, children, teenagers, and adults will enjoy watching this over and over again!! =D
