Dog FoodThe Douglas Hotel Dog Friendly Review
The Douglas Hotel holds a disappointing D Roch Rank. Most rooms take dogs, one to a room, yours is welcome in the garden, the room comes with a dog bed, and dog food is sold on site.
The dog fee runs $50 for a regular room, $100 for a suite and $200 for luxury suites, with a damage deposit of $100 per day, and a weight limit of 35 lb applies, so check ahead with a larger dog. There are no treats, toys or poo bags, no dog walking or sitting service, and staff have not been trained for canine guests. Dogs are kept out of the bar and the lounge.
Dogs cannot be left alone in the room, so your dog stays with you. This is a stay lifted by a dog bed, dog food and a garden, held down by layered fees, best for the owner of a smaller dog who keeps it close.
Roch Score: 16/77. This hotel does not meet 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.
