Best Western Inverness Palace Hotel Dog Friendly Review
Best Western Inverness Palace Hotel holds a disappointing D Roch Rank. Most rooms take dogs, up to two to a room, and there is no weight limit, so a big dog is treated the same as a small one. Green spaces and parks are close by, with staff on hand to point you to the good walks.
The dog fee is £15 per dog, per night. There is no dog bed, treats, toys or poo bags, no garden or dedicated dog space, no dog walking or sitting service, and staff have not been trained for canine guests.
Dogs cannot be left alone in the room, so your dog stays in the bedroom and comes with you. This is a bare stay that suits an owner who wants a modest central base and packs their own kit, with little beyond a roof.
Roch Score: 14/77. This hotel does not meet the Roch Dog Friendly Standard. This hotel has been evaluated, ranked and reviewed using the Roch Standard, the world’s first dog friendly standard for the hotel industry. We gathered data directly from the hotel and benchmarked it against thousands of other hotels to accurately and fairly derive its rank.
