Dorsett Kai Tak Dog Friendly Review
Dorsett Kai Tak holds a failing F Roch Rank, which is a shame given some genuine strengths for dog owners. All three hotel restaurants welcome dogs, as does the bar, and the Kai Tak Promenade is within walking distance for daily walks, making this one of the few hotels where a dog can join you at nearly every meal.
The hotel arranges a room set-up with dog bedding, feeding bowls and a pee pad, so you need not bring your own. A daily room deposit of HK$200 is required, alongside a dog fee of HK$500 plus 13% service charge and tax. Dogs may accompany you in the restaurants and bar, kept on a leash no longer than 1.5 metres and confined to the designated dog areas.
Only some rooms are designated as dog friendly, so you cannot simply book any room, and dogs may not be left unattended anywhere on the premises, including the guest room. A weight limit of 44 lbs applies, with a maximum of two dogs per room. This suits an owner with a small, calm dog who plans to keep him close at all times and who is happy to pay for the privilege; those wanting a garden, dog-walking service or the freedom to leave their dog resting in the room should look elsewhere.”
Roch Score: 10/77. Meets 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.
