No Weight LimitThe Hoxton Dog Friendly Review
The Hoxton holds an acceptable C Roch Rank, a fair grade for a London hotel that welcomes dogs at no charge. There is no pet fee at all, only a fifty-pound daily hold for incidentals, and a settled dog may be left in the room while you are out. Your dog is welcome in the restaurant and the lounge, and cats are accepted on the same terms. In London it is an easy, low-cost base for a dog who travels well.
The room comes with a dog bed and bowls, the hotel keeps an emergency vet contact, and the team points you to the green spaces nearby for walks. The welcome is warm and refreshingly free of the usual surcharges that pile up elsewhere. It does not sell dog food, provide treats or run a walking service, so those fall to you, but for a short city stay the essentials are handled and a genuinely no-fee policy is rare in London.
Dogs are not welcome in the bar or on any terrace, so evenings lean on the restaurant and the room, and the daily hold is worth noting even though it is returned at the end of the stay. Against a no-fee welcome in central London, the value here is genuinely strong. The Hoxton suits a well-mannered dog and an owner who wants an affordable, fuss-free London base and is content to keep to the restaurant and room.
