The George
Cheltenham, United Kingdom · 4 Star Hotel
The George Dog Friendly Review
The George holds a respectable B Roch Rank. This hotel offers a decent experience for dog owners, with most rooms welcoming your four-legged friends. Dogs are allowed in the restaurant and lounge, but not in the bar or terrace, which might limit your dining options if you want to keep your pup close. A big plus is that dogs can stay in the room on their own, giving you the freedom to explore the town without worry.
Amenities are a mixed bag here. While they provide food and water bowls, you'll need to bring your own dog bed. The hotel does offer poop bags and doggy shampoo, which is a nice touch. However, the lack of a dedicated dog space or garden means you'll need to venture out for walks. Fortunately, nearby parks make this less of a hassle.
The fee is £15 per night, which isn't too steep, especially with no weight restrictions and no limit on the number of dogs per room. This is great news for owners of larger breeds or those traveling with multiple dogs. The hotel also supports a local charity, Dogs For Good, through an annual charity dog walk, which is a commendable initiative.
Overall, The George provides a solid option for dog owners visiting Cheltenham. While it lacks some high-end amenities, the reasonable fee and flexibility in dog policies make it a worthwhile choice.
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.
