Dog WalkingFairmont Royal York Dog Friendly Review
Fairmont Royal York holds a respectable B Roch Rank. This downtown Toronto hotel offers a decent experience for dog owners, with most rooms welcoming your four-legged friends. However, dogs are restricted to rooms and public areas, so don't expect to enjoy a meal with your pup in the restaurant or bar. The ability to leave dogs alone in the room is a major convenience, especially in a bustling city like Toronto.
The hotel provides essential amenities like dog beds and bowls, but don't expect any free treats or food. If you're planning a longer stay, there's a pet store about 20 minutes away and a supermarket just a five-minute walk for any dog food needs. The $50 per stay fee is reasonable, but the 20-pound weight limit is a significant downside, excluding popular breeds like Labradors. With a two-dog limit per room, it's not ideal for those with multiple large dogs.
While there's no on-site garden, the nearby off-leash areas are a plus for city walks. The hotel doesn't offer dog-walking or sitting services, so plan your outings accordingly. Overall, Fairmont Royal York provides a solid option for dog owners, but be prepared for some limitations.
