Sandman Signature Ottawa Airport Hotel Dog Friendly Review
Sandman Signature Ottawa Airport Hotel received a failing F Roch Rank. This place is a tough sell for dog owners. With only a few rooms allowing dogs, you better call ahead if you’re planning a stay. Dogs are restricted to rooms, so forget about bringing your furry friend to the bar, restaurant, or any public areas. Leaving your dog alone in the room isn’t an option either, which means you’re tethered to your room unless you have a plan for your pup.
The hotel charges a steep $30 per night or $150 per week per dog, and with a weight limit of just 20 pounds, it excludes popular breeds like Labradors. You’re also limited to two dogs per room. For that price, you’d expect some amenities, but don’t hold your breath. No dog beds, bowls, or treats are provided, so pack your own gear. There’s no garden or dedicated dog space, and nearby parks are non-existent, making walks a hassle.
On the plus side, dogs stay free, which is a rare perk. However, the lack of services like dog walking or sitting, and no emergency vet access, shows a lack of commitment to being truly dog friendly. The $50 damage deposit per stay adds to the upfront cost, making it even less appealing.
In summary, unless your dog is a tiny breed and you’re prepared for a lot of restrictions, this hotel doesn’t offer much for dog owners. Look elsewhere if you want a more welcoming experience for you and your canine companion.
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.
