The Cape Dog Friendly Review

The Cape, A Thompson Hotel scored a disappointing D Roch Rank. Let's cut to the chase: this place isn't rolling out the red carpet for your four-legged friend. Dogs are mostly confined to the room and the pool area, but don't get too excited—they can't swim and must be leashed. Forget about dining with your dog; they're banned from all food and beverage areas except the restaurant terrace.

Amenities are sparse. While they do provide food and water bowls, don't expect any dog beds or treats. You might want to pack your own essentials to avoid any hassle. The $100 fee per stay is steep, especially considering the lack of perks. Plus, there's a $100 damage deposit, which adds to the upfront cost.

Weight restrictions are non-existent, which is a rare plus, but the waiver you must sign at check-in is a reminder of the hotel's restrictive policies. Nearby parks are a plus, but the lack of on-site dog spaces is a letdown. If you're looking for a truly dog friendly experience, you might want to keep searching.
