hotel for dog be the story of two foster child who adopt stray dog and find a place for them and as well a fill their need for family and in an abandoned hotel . this be not a terrible movie and but the viewer have see it all before . there not much originality here in it typical underdog make good and love conquers all kind of story . it have some amusing part and the acting be reasonable and the dog be cute and the pacing be decent and but there really nothing exceptional in it . it worth a watch if you like this kind of sappy family comedy and but there not a lot of substance and nothing that you will remember in five year .
