The Dolder Grand Dog Friendly Review

The Dolder Grand has earned an awesome A Roch Rank. This place is a haven for dog owners who want to enjoy the best of both nature and city life. Dogs are welcome in all of their bars and restaurants, which is a rare treat. The only place your dog can't tag along is the spa area. The hotel provides a dog bed, bowl, and treats upon arrival, making canine guests feel right at home. The CHF 50.00 per night fee is reasonable given the five-star amenities.

While there isn't a dedicated dog space on-site, per se, the surrounding nature more than makes up for it. The entire vicinity is truly a dog walking paradise, with guidance available for routes like the Zollikerberg–Burgwies path and other woodland hiking trails with great views.

The option to arrange dog-walking and sitting services for CHF 50.00 per hour adds a layer of convenience, especially for those planning a city excursion. There's also a specially compiled dog menu to look forward to, adding to the hotel's comprehensive canine hospitality.

The absence of weight limits or restrictions on the number of dogs per room means you can bring along multiple canine companions without a hitch. The lack of a damage deposit is a pleasant surprise, reducing upfront costs. Altogether, The Dolder Grand combines luxury with genuine dog-friendliness, making it a destination choice for dog owners visiting Zurich.
