Hotel Le Soleil Dog Friendly Review
Hotel Le Soleil in Vancouver holds a disappointing D Roch Rank, which is a shame given how much thought seems to have gone into welcoming dogs through the front door. You and your dog can settle into the lounge together, and with green spaces and parks nearby you will not have to travel far to stretch your dog's legs, especially with staff on hand who can point you towards decent walking routes. Most rooms here are dog friendly, and there is no weight or size limit, so whether you travel with a small terrier or a much larger companion you should find a room that suits. Staff are trained for canine guests, which takes some of the anxiety out of travelling with a dog to a new city, and it sets a warmer tone than the overall rating might suggest.
Once you are in your room, the practicalities are reasonably well handled: a dog bed is provided, so you will not need to bring your own bulky bedding, and free treats are a nice touch on arrival. If your plans mean you need a few hours away from your dog, a dog-sitting service is available, which is a genuine convenience for owners who want to explore Vancouver without their dog in tow. You will pay $25 per night for the privilege of bringing your dog along, and on top of that a refundable incidental deposit of $100 per night is taken, so budget for both before you arrive. Up to two dogs are permitted per room, so travelling with a pair need not mean booking two separate rooms.
Set against those positives are some real limitations worth knowing before you book. Dogs may not be left alone in the room, so any outing without your dog in hand will need to involve the dog-sitting service rather than simply popping out. There is no bar, restaurant or terrace access for dogs, no garden or dedicated dog space, and no dog wash area, food or water bowls, dog food for sale, dog-walking service, poop bags, grooming or toys on site, so you will need to bring your own essentials and manage exercise and mealtimes largely yourself. There are no dog friendly activities, events, awards or media coverage attached to this hotel, dogs do not stay free, and the pet policy is not shared before booking, which leaves some uncertainty until you arrive. This stay suits an organised owner with one or two well behaved dogs who is happy to be self-sufficient on food, walking and grooming; owners wanting a fuller dog friendly package with clearer costs upfront should look elsewhere.
