No Weight LimitSherbrooke Castle Hotel Dog Friendly Review
Sherbrooke Castle Hotel holds an acceptable C Roch Rank, and for a dog owner arriving in Glasgow that is a fair reflection of a stay that genuinely tries to make room for your dog without going overboard. Most of the rooms here are dog friendly, and with no weight or size limit imposed you needn't worry whether your dog is too big or too heavy to be welcome. The terrace, the lounge and a garden are all spaces your dog may use, which gives you somewhere to sit outside or unwind indoors together rather than being confined to the bedroom, and with green spaces and parks nearby there is somewhere further afield to stretch your dog's legs. It is a hotel with a proper sense of scale behind its dog welcome, even if some of the finer touches are missing.
Day to day, the practical side of the stay is handled reasonably well. Your room will come with a dog bed and real food and water bowls, so you won't need to pack the full kit from home. Your dog can be left alone in the room if needed, which matters if you have plans that don't include them, though you should still weigh that against how settled your dog is in new surroundings. A refundable damage deposit of £20 is charged, taken by chip and PIN on a physical card, so bring one with you. On top of that there is a flat £30 deep clean charge per dog, which is a straightforward cost rather than one bundled with extras, so it buys you the room's cleanliness after your stay rather than any additional perks.
The gaps are worth knowing before you book. Your dog is not welcome in the bar or the restaurant, so mealtimes and drinks will mean leaving them behind, and there is no dedicated dog space, dog wash area, or dog food for sale, so you'll need to bring your dog's own supplies and manage cleanup yourself since poop bags aren't provided either. There's no dog-walking or dog-sitting service, no grooming, no toys, and no staff specifically trained for canine guests, so this isn't a hotel geared towards pampering your dog beyond the basics. There are no dog friendly activities, events, awards or charity ties to speak of, and the hotel doesn't share its pet policy before booking, dogs don't stay free, and cats aren't accommodated either. This suits an owner with a calm, self-sufficient dog who mainly wants comfortable, flexible access to indoor and outdoor space; owners wanting pampering, transparency on costs upfront, or dining together should look elsewhere.
