Fairmont Austin Dog Friendly Review
Fairmont Austin is not certified. Assessed against the Roch Dog Friendly Standard, it failed to meet our minimum requirements: it does not provide dogs with food and water bowls, and does not welcome dogs in its bar, lounge, restaurant or terrace. That caps the rank at F.
Fairmont Austin offers a genuinely open approach to four-legged guests, with a public pet policy that sets out clearly what is expected. There is no weight or size limit on dogs staying, and up to two dogs are permitted per room, which is generous for owners travelling with more than one companion. Cats are also welcome, useful for multi-pet households. Poop bags are provided for walks, and the hotel runs dog friendly activities. Owners can also take comfort in there being no damage deposit required for their dog's stay.
Set against this, there are notable gaps. A fee of $100 per pet applies, and only some rooms are designated dog friendly rather than the whole hotel, so owners need to check availability when booking. Dogs are not welcome in the bar, restaurant, lounge or terrace, which limits where owners can spend time with their dog on site. There is no garden or dedicated dog space, and no dog wash or shower area. Practical extras such as a dog bed, food and water bowls, and dog food for sale are absent, and the hotel does not offer a dog walking or dog sitting service. Dogs may not be left alone in the room, which is an important consideration for owners planning to dine out or attend meetings during their stay.
