Dog WalkingMandarin Oriental, Vienna Dog Friendly Review
Mandarin Oriental, Vienna holds an outstanding A+ Roch Rank, reflecting a notably thorough approach to welcoming dogs. Dogs are welcome in all room categories, which is a genuine rarity at this level of hotel, and the breadth of public areas open to your dog is impressive. Your dog may join you in the bar, the lounge, on the terrace and in the garden, giving you real flexibility throughout the day. There are numerous green spaces and walking opportunities in the surrounding area, so you will never be short of places to stretch your legs together.
In the room, the hotel provides a dog bed, food and water bowls, and toys, so there is little you need to bring beyond your dog's own food. Treats are offered subject to availability, a small but welcome touch. The concierge team can provide personalised walking route recommendations, organise an external dog walking service, arrange a third party dog sitter, or book an appointment with a local dog groomer. You may leave your dog alone in the room for short periods, for example while you go to dinner. There is no damage deposit, though the dog fee is EUR 70 per dog per night, which is steep and worth factoring into the overall cost of your stay. The hotel also keeps an emergency vet number should you ever need one.
There are real limits to note. A weight limit of 66 lbs applies, ruling out larger breeds. Dogs are not allowed in the fine dining restaurant Le Sept, so you will need to plan meal times accordingly or make use of the bar, lounge or terrace where your dog is welcome. The hotel does not provide a dedicated dog space, a dog wash area or poop bags. Given the fee and the weight restriction, this stay suits owners of small to medium sized dogs who want a luxury base in Vienna with genuine freedom to keep their dog beside them for most of the day. Owners of larger or heavier dogs, or those unwilling to pay a premium nightly fee, should look elsewhere.
Roch Score: 46/77. Meets 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.
