The Old Ship Hotel Dog Friendly Review

The Old Ship Hotel received an acceptable C Roch Rank. While most rooms welcome dogs, the hotel falls short in several areas. Dogs are allowed in the lounge and public areas, but not in the restaurant or terrace, which limits dining options with your furry friend. The absence of a garden or dedicated dog space means you'll need to venture out for walks, though nearby parks offer some relief.

Amenities are basic, with beds and bowls provided, but don't expect any free treats or dog food. The £12.50 per dog, per night fee is reasonable, but without standout perks, it feels like you're paying for the basics. On the plus side, there's no weight limit, so larger breeds like Labradors are welcome, and there's no cap on the number of dogs per room, which is great for multi-dog families.

The hotel doesn't offer dog-sitting or walking services, so plan to keep your dog with you. Staff are accommodating and willing to help with special requests, but the lack of trained dog-specific services is a downside. Overall, The Old Ship Hotel is a decent choice if you're looking for a place that allows dogs, but don't expect any frills or exceptional 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.
