Fairmont Washington Dog Friendly Review
Fairmont Washington holds a failing F Roch Rank, which is a poor start for any dog owner weighing up a stay here, though there is still something to weigh. The hotel lets your dog stay free of charge, with no weight or size limit and no damage deposit to worry about, which takes some of the usual financial sting out of travelling with a dog. Up to two dogs per room are allowed, so owners with a pair need not book separate spaces. For a hotel with such a low overall rank, these headline terms are genuinely useful, even if the wider experience does not quite live up to them.
Day to day, the practicalities are straightforward but bare. There is no fee to bring your dog, and with no deposit required either, checking in is simple enough. However, only some rooms at the property are designated as dog friendly, so you will need to confirm this at booking rather than assuming any room will do. Once you are settled, your dog cannot be left alone in the room, which means your plans around meals, meetings or sightseeing need to factor in constant company. There is no dog bed, no bowls, no dog food for sale and no treats provided, so you will want to bring your own kit for feeding and settling in, since none of it is supplied here.
The restrictions stack up once you look past the free stay. Dogs are not welcome in the bar, restaurant, lounge or on any terrace or patio, so shared spaces and dining are off limits throughout your visit. There is no garden or dedicated dog space, no dog wash area, and no green space or park guidance offered nearby, so exercise and toileting will need to be planned entirely on your own initiative. Services such as dog walking, dog sitting, grooming and poop bag provision are all absent, as is any staff training for canine guests, dog friendly activities or an emergency vet number. This stay best suits an owner with a well settled, quiet dog who is happy to stay close by at all times and who needs no extras beyond a free room. Owners wanting shared spaces, amenities or any support services should look elsewhere.”
