F Roch Rank

Best Western The Westerly Hotel Dog Friendly Review

Best Western The Westerly Hotel holds a failing F Roch Rank. A number of rooms take dogs, up to two to a room, yours is welcome on the terrace, and there is no weight limit. The hotel supports pet charities and green spaces and parks are close by.

The dog fee is $20 per night, to a maximum charge of 5 nights, with a damage deposit of 100. 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.

Bring your own bowls and it does the job. Dogs cannot be left alone in the room, so your dog stays with you; this is a bare stay lifted by a terrace and a capped fee, best for an owner who keeps the dog close.
