Hôtel Hermitage Dog Friendly Review
Hôtel Hermitage holds an acceptable C Roch Rank, and for a dog owner considering Monte Carlo it still has plenty going for it. This is a hotel that lets your dog join you well beyond the bedroom, with dogs welcome in the bar, the restaurant and the lounge, so you needn't leave your companion behind while you socialise or eat. There are green spaces and parks nearby, and staff will give you guidance on walking routes, which matters in a dense city where finding somewhere pleasant to stretch your dog's legs isn't always obvious. Cats are also welcome to stay, which speaks to a generally accommodating attitude towards animals even if the practical extras for dogs specifically are limited, as the following paragraphs make clear.
Day to day, the hotel takes some of the pressure off you: a dog-walking service and a dog-sitting service are both available, useful if your plans don't always include your dog, and there's an emergency vet number on hand should you need it. Your dog may be left alone in the room, which gives you the freedom to dine or explore without arranging cover every time. There's no damage deposit to worry about, which softens the overall cost of bringing a dog along, though a dog fee of 60 euros still applies and, with no in-room extras such as bowls or bedding included, that fee buys you convenience and access rather than any kit for your dog. It's a fee worth weighing against the access you're getting to public rooms rather than expecting any material provisions in return.
The main restriction to know before booking is that only some rooms are dog friendly, not all, so you'll need to confirm the right room type rather than assume any will do. A weight limit of 33 lbs also applies, and with one dog permitted per room, this stay simply won't work for owners with a larger breed or with more than one dog in tow. There's no terrace or garden for your dog to use, no dedicated dog space, no wash area, and no toys, treats or bowls provided, so this is very much a hotel that offers access and services rather than pampering. This suits an owner with a single small dog under the weight limit who wants central Monte Carlo access, sociable communal areas and a reliable walking or sitting service; owners with larger or multiple dogs, or those wanting a garden or in-room extras, should look elsewhere.
