L'oscar London Dog Friendly Review
L'oscar London holds an acceptable C Roch Rank for dog friendly stays, and it earns that mark through a genuinely welcoming approach rather than token gestures. Every room in the hotel is dog friendly, dogs are welcome in the Butterfly Lounge for all day dining and drinks, and the cosy patio is open to dogs depending on the weather. The hotel also points guests towards Lincoln's Inn Fields as its closest recommended park, with further walking routes through Bloomsbury Square, Montague Street Garden and around Russell Square, so there is no shortage of green space nearby for a city stay.
Day to day, your dog is given a complimentary bed, a real bowl and treats on arrival, and he can settle into the Butterfly Lounge with you throughout your stay, kept on a leash as required. He may be left alone in the room for short periods, at your own responsibility. There is a £60 pet fee, and reassuringly no damage deposit is taken for the dog's presence, only that flat fee. Up to two dogs are permitted per room, provided each falls within the small to medium size bracket the hotel accepts.
The main restriction is size: the hotel accepts dogs up to 44 lbs, so larger breeds are not catered for here. There is no garden for dogs to use, no dedicated dog space, no dog wash area, and dogs are not allowed in the bar. The hotel does not provide poop bags, dog food, grooming arrangements or toys, so you will need to bring the essentials yourself. This makes L'oscar London a strong choice for owners with a small to medium dog who want proper dining and lounge access and a central London base for park walks, but owners of larger dogs, or those wanting dedicated dog facilities on site, should look elsewhere.
