The Sutton Place Hotel Vancouver Dog Friendly Review
The Sutton Place Hotel Vancouver holds a failing F Roch Rank, which is a shame given how much thought has plainly gone into welcoming dogs here. You will find a hotel that lets you and your dog use the terrace or patio together, which is a genuine pleasure on a fine day, and it sits close to green spaces and parks that make for easy exploring once you have settled in. The hotel is also upfront about its pet policy before you book, so you know largely what to expect, and cats are welcomed too, which speaks to a broader ease with animal guests. For a first impression, it strikes a warm note, even if the overall rank suggests the finer details let it down elsewhere.
Once you arrive, your dog is given a proper bed to settle into along with real food and water bowls rather than anything makeshift, and there are free treats waiting too, a nice touch that costs you nothing extra. Staff can point you toward decent walking routes nearby. There is no dog-sitting or grooming service, though the concierge can recommend a local groomer. Poop bags are provided for your walks, and there is an emergency vet number kept on file, which matters if anything goes wrong. All of this comes at a cost of $40 per night, capped at $175 for a week, a fee that feels reasonable set against the bed, bowls and treats it helps cover. A refundable damage deposit is also charged, though the hotel would not tell us the figure, so budget for an unknown extra.
Not every room here is dog friendly, so you will need to confirm at booking that yours is one of the ones that allows dogs, rather than assuming. There is a weight limit of 50 lbs, which rules out larger breeds, and you are capped at two dogs per room, so a larger pack will need to look elsewhere. Your dog cannot be left alone in the room, which means your plans need to keep him with you rather than slipping out solo. There is no access to the bar, restaurant or lounge with your dog, no dedicated dog space or garden, no wash area, no dog food for sale, no walking service, no toys, and no specially trained staff, awards or events to speak of. This suits an owner with a smaller, well behaved dog who values solid practical basics and doesn't mind a modest deposit uncertainty; owners of larger dogs or those wanting a fuller dog friendly social scene should look elsewhere.
