Casa Tropicana Dog Friendly Review
Casa Tropicana holds a disappointing D Roch Rank. Most rooms take dogs, and yours is welcome in the lounge and on the terrace, so you are not shut away upstairs. There is no weight limit, so a big dog is treated the same as a small one.
The dog fee is $40 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 with you, though green spaces and parks are close by. This is a thin stay that suits an owner who wants the lounge and keeps the dog close, and who packs their own bowls.
Roch Score: 13/77. 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.
