InterContinental Houston Dog Friendly Review
InterContinental Houston holds a disappointing D Roch Rank. Most rooms take dogs, one to a room, and yours is welcome in the lounge and the garden, so you are not shut away upstairs. Green spaces and parks are close by.
The dog fee is $150 per stay, and a weight limit of 50 lb applies, so check ahead with a larger dog. There is no dog bed, treats, toys or poo bags, no dog walking or sitting service, and staff have not been trained for canine guests.
Dogs cannot be left alone in the room, so your dog stays with you and you pack your own bowls. This is a thin stay for the fee, lifted by the run of the lounge and garden, best for an owner who keeps the dog close.
Roch Score: 13/77. This hotel does not meet the Roch Dog Friendly Standard. This hotel has been evaluated, ranked and reviewed using the Roch Standard, the world’s first dog friendly standard for the hotel industry. We gathered data directly from the hotel and benchmarked it against thousands of other hotels to accurately and fairly derive its rank.
