The Pheasant Hotel Dog Friendly Review
The Pheasant Hotel scored a disappointing D Roch Rank. While the hotel allows dogs in the Orangery for meals, the overall experience is underwhelming for dog owners. Dogs are restricted from most public areas, which means your four-legged friend will spend most of their time confined to the room. The ability to leave dogs alone in the room is a plus, but the lack of a garden or dedicated dog space is a letdown, especially for those who enjoy a quick romp outside.
The £20 per night fee is on the higher side, particularly since the hotel doesn't provide basic amenities like dog beds or bowls. Owners should be prepared to bring their own essentials. The absence of nearby parks or green spaces further limits outdoor activities, making it less appealing for active dogs. The hotel does not offer any dog-walking or sitting services, which could be a hassle for those planning a full day out.
With a two-dog limit per room and no weight restrictions, it accommodates multiple dogs, but the lack of additional perks or services makes the fee feel steep. The Pheasant Hotel needs to step up its game to truly cater to dog owners looking for a welcoming and convenient stay.
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.
