No Weight LimitKimpton Marlowe Hotel Dog Friendly Review
The Kimpton Marlowe Hotel has attained our highest A+ rank, placing it among the small handful of hotels worldwide that hold it. This is dog friendly hospitality the way Kimpton built its name on, with most of the rooms open to dogs, no weight or size limits of any kind, and no limit on how many dogs can share your room. Best of all, dogs stay completely free, with no fee and no damage deposit, which is genuinely rare at this level of hotel and makes the Marlowe an easy choice for anyone travelling through Boston and Cambridge with their dog.
The inclusivity runs right through the property. Dogs are welcome in the public lounge and in the hotel garden, and they can stay in the room on their own, a huge convenience when you want to visit somewhere your dog cannot go. Massachusetts law keeps dogs out of the bar and restaurant, which is outside any hotel's control, but everywhere the Marlowe is free to welcome your dog, it does. Cats are welcome too, so multi-pet households are covered.
The amenities are exactly what you want to see from an A+ hotel. Dog beds, proper food and water bowls, free treats, toys, and poop bags are all provided, so you can pack light. The hotel offers guidance on local walking routes, and there are green spaces and parks close by for those frequent calls of nature. The services go further still, with dog walking available, third party dog sitting arranged on request, and even dog grooming, and the front desk keeps an emergency vet number on file in case the worst should happen.
The Marlowe also runs dog friendly events and activities, supports pet charities, and its canine hospitality has earned media coverage, all signs of a hotel that treats dogs as part of the community rather than a tolerated extra. Put simply, this is one of the best dog friendly hotels in New England, and its A+ rank is thoroughly earned.
