No Weight LimitThe Joule Dog Friendly Review
The Joule holds a respectable B Roch Rank. This hotel offers a decent experience for dog owners, with most rooms being dog friendly, making availability a breeze. Dogs are welcome on the terrace and in public areas, but not in the bar or restaurant, which might limit your dining options. However, the ability to leave your dog alone in the room is a major convenience, especially for those looking to explore the city without their four-legged friend.
While the hotel doesn't provide dog beds or bowls, they do offer free treats, which is a nice touch. The nearby public green spaces are a plus for those necessary walks, though the lack of an on-site garden is a bit of a letdown. The Joule doesn't offer dog-walking or sitting services, so plan accordingly if you need these extras. The staff is trained to handle dogs, which adds a layer of comfort for any potential issues.
The one-time non-refundable $100 cleaning fee is on the higher side, especially since it doesn't cover any additional amenities. However, there's no weight limit, and no limit on the number of dogs per room, which is great for owners with multiple or larger breeds. The waiver for damage liability is standard, but it's worth noting that service animals are exempt from the fee and have more access around the hotel.
Overall, The Joule provides a solid stay for dog owners, though it could improve with more amenities and services. It's a good choice if you're looking for a central location with basic dog friendly features.
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.
