The Nest Dog Friendly Review

The Nest 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.

A number of rooms welcome dogs, and dogs are welcome in the bar, the restaurant and the lounge, so you are not shut away at mealtimes. There is no weight limit. Staff have been trained to look after canine guests, and green spaces and parks are close by, with staff on hand to point you to the good walks.

The dog fee is $40 per night. No dog bed, treats, toys or poo bags are provided, there is no garden or dedicated dog space on site, there is no dog walking or sitting service, and dogs cannot be left alone in the room. Pack a set of bowls and this is a comfortable stay for a dog, and certification needs only that gap closed.

The Nest With Your Dog · Good To Know

Is The Nest dog friendly?

No. The Nest 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 Nest?

Yes. The Nest charges a pet fee of $40 per night. 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.

Is there a weight limit for dogs at The Nest?

No. The Nest has no weight limit, so dogs of any size can stay.

Where are dogs allowed in The Nest?

Dogs are welcome in several public areas at The Nest, including the bar, restaurant and lounge. We would always suggest keeping your dog on a lead and settled in these shared spaces, out of courtesy to other guests.
