Hotel Falknerhof Dog Friendly Review
Hotel Falknerhof holds a failing F Roch Rank, which is worth knowing before you set your expectations too high, yet there are still some genuine points in its favour for owners travelling with a dog. There is no weight or size limit, so whether you are travelling with a small terrier or a large hound, your companion is welcome regardless of stature. Your dog may also be left alone in the room, which gives you the freedom to step out for a meal or an excursion without arranging anything in advance. Taken together, these two facts suggest a hotel that has at least thought about the practical needs of dog owners, even if the wider picture, reflected in that low ranking, is decidedly patchy.
Day to day, the practicalities are refreshingly simple in some respects. There is no damage deposit required, so you are not left calculating what portion of a payment you might see back at the end of your stay, which takes one layer of stress out of checking in with a dog in tow. Your dog can be left in the room unaccompanied, meaning you are not tied to your dog's side for the whole visit and can plan your days with a little more flexibility. However, you will not find a dog bed, bowls, dog food for sale, treats or poop bags waiting for you, so you will need to bring your own kit for feeding, settling and cleaning up after your dog, as none of this is provided by the hotel.
The clearest restriction to bear in mind is that only some rooms are designated dog friendly, not all of them, so you will need to confirm you are booked into one of these rather than assuming any room will do. There is no garden, dedicated dog space, dog wash area or terrace access for dogs, and the bar, restaurant and lounge are all off limits to your dog, which means most of your time together will be confined to the bedroom rather than shared communal spaces. There is no dog-walking or dog-sitting service, no staff trained for canine guests, and no guidance on local walking routes, so you will be entirely self sufficient in planning your dog's exercise. This stay suits an independent, low-maintenance dog and an owner who mainly wants a straightforward room base without extra frills; owners hoping for sociable communal areas or on-site canine services should look elsewhere.
