You won’t be able to check into this ‘Hotel for Dogs’ until next year, but Hollywood veteran photographer David Strick gives us an exclusive sneak preview in the latest installment of his ‘Hollywood Backlot’ series.

Based on Lois Duncan’s novel, ‘Hotel for Dogs stars Emma Roberts, Jake T. Austin, Lisa Kudrow, Kevin Dillon and Don Cheadle, and is directed by Thor Freudenthal.

The comedy’s plot: When their new guardians forbid 16-year-old Andi (played by Roberts) and her younger brother Bruce (played by Austin) to have a pet, Andi has to help find a new home for their dog, Friday. So the kids stumble upon an abandoned hotel and transform it into a haven for Friday and his friends, although some neighbors aren’t happy with the situation.

The movie is scheduled to open in January.
