Top 10 Dog-Friendly Hotels in Canada
Hotels across Canada that genuinely welcome dogs — with pet menus, beds, and no surprise weight limits.
"Pet-friendly" can mean anything from a $150 cleaning fee to an actual dog bed turned down for your pup. This list features hotels with a documented, generous policy — but always re-confirm pet fees, weight limits, and breed restrictions at booking.

The Fairmont's Canine Ambassador program is the gold standard — most properties welcome dogs with beds, bowls, and treats on arrival.
2. Kimpton Saint George (Toronto)
No size, weight, or breed restriction; no pet fee.
3. The Drake Hotel (Toronto, Drake Devonshire, Drake Motor Inn)
Dog-welcoming across all properties.
4. Hotel Le Germain (multiple)
Pet-friendly across most Canadian locations; pet menu at select properties.
5. Loden Hotel (Vancouver)
Welcomes dogs of all sizes; pet amenities on request.
6. Opus Hotel (Vancouver)
No weight limit; treats and walking maps at check-in.

Before you book
- Ask about pet fees per night vs per stay.
- Confirm whether dogs can be left unattended in the room (most say no).
- Request a ground-floor or quiet-corridor room.
