Renaissance Montreal Downtown Hotel

Renaissance Montreal Downtown Hotel received a failing F Roch Rank. This place is not where you want to bring your four-legged friend. With only a few rooms allowing dogs, you better call ahead if you’re even considering it. Dogs are restricted to rooms, so forget about enjoying a drink with your pup at the bar or lounging together in public areas. Leaving your dog alone in the room isn’t an option either, which is a real headache if you plan to explore the city without them. The hotel charges a $75 CAD fee per stay, which is steep given the lack of amenities. No dog beds or bowls are provided, so pack your own gear. While they do offer free treats, it hardly makes up for the other shortcomings. The weight limit is 77 pounds, which excludes many common breeds like Golden Retrievers, limiting the hotel's true dog-friendliness. You can bring up to two dogs, but with these restrictions, why would you? On the plus side, there’s a nearby park for walks, but the absence of a dedicated dog space on-site is a letdown. The hotel doesn’t offer any dog-walking or sitting services, so flexibility is out the window. Staff training for handling dogs is non-existent, and there’s no emergency vet access, which doesn’t inspire confidence. In summary, Renaissance Montreal Downtown Hotel is not worth the hassle or the fee for dog owners. Look elsewhere for a truly welcoming experience for you and your canine companion. This hotel has been evaluated, ranked, and reviewed using the Roch Standard, the world's first dog friendly standard for the hotel industry.
