Hotel New Akao Dog Friendly Review

Hotel New Akao is not certified. Assessed against the Roch Dog Friendly Standard, it missed one of our minimum requirements: it does not welcome dogs in its bar, lounge, restaurant or terrace. That caps the rank at F.

Hotel New Akao allows dogs to be left alone in the room and provides a garden for dogs to use, with green spaces and parks nearby for walks. Owners are given guidance on suitable walking routes, and real food and water bowls are supplied for canine guests. Dogs stay free of charge, and the pet policy is publicly available, with no damage deposit required, which offers a degree of reassurance and straightforward planning for visiting dog owners.

Not every room at Hotel New Akao is dog friendly, so owners need to check availability carefully, and a weight limit of 33 lbs applies, alongside a cap of two dogs per room. Beyond the garden, there is no dedicated dog space, no dog bed, and no dog wash or shower area provided. Dogs are not welcomed in the bar, restaurant, terrace or lounge, limiting where owners can bring them around the property. There is no dog-walking or dog-sitting service on offer, and practical extras such as poop bags, dog food for sale, free treats and toys are absent. Staff are not trained for canine guests, and there is no emergency vet number provided, no dog friendly activities or events, and cats are not welcome to stay.
