No Weight LimitFairmont Hotel Vancouver Dog Friendly Review
Fairmont Hotel Vancouver is not certified. Assessed against the Roch Dog Friendly Standard, it missed one of our minimum requirements: it does not welcome dogs in its bar, lounge, restaurant or terrace. That caps the rank at F.
Fairmont Hotel Vancouver offers a genuinely useful range of provisions for travelling dog owners. Dogs can make use of a garden on site, with green spaces and parks nearby for walks, and staff provide guidance on suitable walking routes. Rooms are equipped with a dog bed along with proper food and water bowls, and the hotel runs both a dog-walking and a dog-sitting service, alongside grooming for guests who need it. Up to two dogs are permitted per room, and there is no weight or size limit imposed on canine guests, which suits larger breeds as well as small ones. The hotel has attracted dog friendly media coverage, supports a dog or pet charity, welcomes cats as well as dogs, and does not charge a damage deposit for guests bringing pets.
That said, there are meaningful gaps for anyone weighing up this hotel with a dog in tow. Only some rooms are designated as dog friendly, so choice within the hotel is limited and this needs checking before booking. Dogs are not welcomed in the bar, restaurant, terrace or lounge areas, which restricts where owners can spend time with their pets beyond the bedroom. There is no dedicated dog space or dog wash and shower area on site, and the hotel does not supply dog food, free treats, poop bags or toys for guests to use. Staff are not specifically trained for canine guests, and there are no dog friendly activities, events or awards associated with the property. Dogs are also not confirmed as suitable to be left alone in the room, and the pet policy itself is not made public, leaving some practical details unclear for prospective guests.
