ARC HOTEL Washington DC, Georgetown

Arc Hotel received a failing F Roch Rank. This place is a tough sell for dog owners. With only a few rooms open to dogs, you better call ahead if you're planning a stay. Dogs are confined to rooms, so forget about bringing your furry friend to the bar, restaurant, or any public areas. Leaving your dog alone in the room is allowed, which is a small mercy, but the overall vibe is more 'tolerated' than 'welcomed.' Amenities are bare-bones—no dog beds, bowls, or treats. You'll need to pack your own gear. The $50 fee per stay isn't outrageous, but given the lack of perks, it feels like you're paying for the privilege of having your dog ignored. The weight limit is a paltry 40 lbs, which rules out popular breeds like Labradors. Only two dogs per room are allowed, so families with multiple dogs might find this limiting. On the plus side, there's a nearby park for walks, but don't expect any on-site gardens or dedicated dog spaces. No dog-walking or sitting services are offered, and the staff isn't specially trained to handle dogs. This hotel is more about the basics, with little to make a dog owner's life easier. In summary, Arc Hotel is not the place for a memorable dog-friendly stay. The restrictions and lack of amenities make it a poor choice for those traveling with their canine companions. 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 in order to fairly derive its rank.
