Kingsmills Hotel Dog Friendly Review
Kingsmills Hotel holds a disappointing D Roch Rank. A number of rooms take dogs, and yours is welcome in the lounge and the garden, so you are not shut away upstairs. Dogs can be left alone in the room and the hotel puts out free treats.
The dog fee is £25 per dog per stay, and the weight limit of 88 lb means even larger dogs are fine. There is no dog bed, toys or poo bags, no dog walking or sitting service, and staff have not been trained for canine guests.
Bring your own bowls and green spaces and parks are close by. This is a thin stay lifted by the run of the lounge and garden and the freedom to leave a settled dog, best for an owner who packs their own kit.
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.
