Ranked By Roch™

Dog friendly hotels ranked regionally using the Roch Standard.

When a hotel has been Ranked By Roch, it means that we have formally certified and verified a hotel's level of dog friendliness. We do this by taking them through a comprehensive certification process which awards them points based on their answers, with different weightings depending on the question, in order to produce a final rank from A+ to D.

rank hotels are well above average in terms of the services, amenities, and ancillaries, while they may not provide as many perks as A+ hotels, you can still expect a very high level of comfort and convenience for you and your pet during your stay.
