Fairmont Chateau Laurier Dog Friendly Review
Fairmont Chateau Laurier holds a respectable B Roch Rank. This historic hotel offers a decent experience for dog owners, with most rooms welcoming your four-legged friends. However, don't expect to bring your dog to the bar or restaurant; they're only allowed on the terrace and in public areas. A major downside is that dogs can't be left alone in the room, which can be a real hassle if you plan to explore the city without them.
The hotel provides the basics like dog beds and bowls, but don't count on any free treats or food. On the plus side, the nearby parks offer great walking options, which is a relief given the lack of a dedicated dog space on-site. The $50+ per stay fee is reasonable, especially since there's no weight limit or restriction on the number of dogs per room. This is a big win for owners of larger breeds like Labradors.
One standout feature is the hotel's Canine Ambassador, Stewart, who adds a unique touch to the stay. While the hotel doesn't offer dog-walking or sitting services, they do provide guidance on local walk routes, which is a helpful perk. Overall, Fairmont Chateau Laurier is a solid choice for dog owners, but be prepared for some limitations.
