No Weight LimitBest Western Ramkota Hotel Dog Friendly Review
Best Western Ramkota Hotel holds an acceptable C Roch Rank. Dogs are welcome in the garden and there is a dedicated dog space on site, the room comes with a dog bed and poo bags for walks, and there is no weight limit, so a big dog is as welcome as a small one. Dogs can be left alone in the room, which makes an evening out straightforward, and the hotel supports pet charities.
The dog fee is $20 a night, capped at 5 nights for $100, which is fair. What you do not get is extras or service: no treats or toys, no dog walking or sitting, and staff have not been trained for canine guests. Dogs are kept out of the bar and the lounge, so the public rooms are not shared.
This is an acceptable stay for an owner who wants a dependable, dog-ready base with somewhere on site for their dog and the freedom to head out for the evening, and who does not need the dog at the table. Green spaces and parks are close by for the walking.
