The Hi-Lo
Portland, United States · 4 Star Hotel
The Hi-Lo Dog Friendly Review
The Hi-Lo is not certified. Assessed against the Roch Dog Friendly Standard, it missed one of our minimum requirements: dogs are not provided with food and water bowls. That caps the rank at F.
Up to two dogs can share a room, and dogs are welcome in the lounge and the garden, so you are not shut away at mealtimes. There is no weight limit and dogs can be left alone in the room. Green spaces and parks are close by.
The dog fee is $50 per stay. No dog bed, treats, toys or poo bags are provided, there is no dog walking or sitting service, and staff have not had formal training for canine guests. Bring your own bowls and it does the job, and certification needs only that gap closed.

The Hi-Lo With Your Dog · Good To Know
Is The Hi-Lo dog friendly?
No. The Hi-Lo allows dogs, but being allowed to bring a dog and being genuinely dog friendly are not the same thing. We assessed it against the Roch Dog Friendly Standard and it failed to meet even our minimum requirements, so it is not certified and holds our lowest rating. The review above explains where it falls short.
Is there a pet fee at The Hi-Lo?
Yes. The Hi-Lo charges a pet fee of $50 per stay. There is no additional deposit. It is always worth confirming the current pet fee when you book, as charges can change from time to time.
How many dogs can stay per room at The Hi-Lo?
Up to 2 dogs are permitted per room at The Hi-Lo. It is always worth confirming the details with the hotel when you book.
Is there a weight limit for dogs at The Hi-Lo?
No. The Hi-Lo has no weight limit, so dogs of any size can stay.
Can I leave my dog alone in the room at The Hi-Lo?
Yes. Dogs may be left unattended in the room at The Hi-Lo. We would still suggest letting reception know and making sure your dog is calm and settled before you head out, so housekeeping and other guests are never caught by surprise.
Where are dogs allowed in The Hi-Lo?
Dogs are welcome in several public areas at The Hi-Lo, including the lounge and garden. We would always suggest keeping your dog on a lead and settled in these shared spaces, out of courtesy to other guests.
Are cats welcome at The Hi-Lo too?
Yes, The Hi-Lo allows cats as well as dogs. It is not certified under the Roch Dog Friendly Standard though, so confirm the current cat policy with the hotel directly before you book.
