Ashinomaki prince hotel Dog Friendly Review
Ashinomaki Prince Hotel, tucked away in Aizuwakamatsu, offers a modest but genuine welcome to travelling dogs. Dogs are permitted in the lounge, giving owners somewhere to relax with their companion rather than being confined to a room, and if needed dogs may be left alone in the room, which suits owners who want to nip out for a meal or explore nearby without their dog in tow. Real food and water bowls are provided, a small but appreciated touch, and cats are also welcome, so multi-pet households need not worry about being turned away.
There are real limitations to be aware of. Only some rooms are designated as dog friendly, so availability is not guaranteed across the whole hotel and it is worth confirming this in advance. A weight or size limit also applies, which means larger dogs may not be accommodated at all. The dog fee is stated plainly as 3,300円, and the hotel allows one dog per room, so this is not a venue geared towards travelling with multiple dogs.
On the plus side, the pet policy itself is public, so owners can check the terms before booking rather than discovering restrictions on arrival, and there is no damage deposit required, which removes one layer of financial worry. That said, dogs are not welcomed in the bar, restaurant or on any terrace or patio, so shared dining or outdoor lounging with your dog is not really on offer here, and owners hoping for a garden, dedicated dog space or nearby green spaces will not find them.
Given the mix of a genuine, if limited, welcome alongside a fair number of missing extras, Ashinomaki Prince Hotel earns its Roch Rank of F. It suits owners with a single, appropriately sized dog who want basic comfort and honesty about costs, but it will not satisfy those seeking a fuller dog friendly experience with dedicated facilities or extra amenities.
