Luxury hotels, judged for small dogs.

Truly Dog-WelcomingSmall Dog ApprovedRoom-Service Friendly

Park Hyatt Toronto

Toronto, Ontario

3/4 Cheerio Paw Rating

Verified Stay / Visit

A genuinely dog-welcoming Yorkville hotel where the staff sincerely like your dog and you can leave him in the room — held to three paws by dog exclusions from its best spaces (the rooftop bar and Joni) and a dog program that trails its warmth.

The Ritz-Carlton, Toronto

Toronto, Ontario

Cats and dogs to 13.6 kg per room, two maximum, on a $150 non-refundable fee plus a $150–450 cleaning charge set by room type — and the hotel runs two separate patios, LANO's small one at the front and EPOCH's large one at the back. It publishes nothing about leaving a dog alone, so confirm that directly.

The Ritz-Carlton, Montreal

Montreal, Quebec

Two pets per room, each to 22.6 kg, on a flat $150 non-refundable fee per stay — no cleaning charge published, where the Toronto Ritz-Carlton lists $150–450. Quebec closes every indoor dining room to pet dogs, so Maison Boulud and tea at the Palm Court are out, and nothing is published about leaving a dog alone.

Langdon Hall

Cambridge, Ontario

No weight limit is published — dogs stay only in designated terrace-level Cloister rooms, on a $50 per-pet fee, and are excluded from the spa, pool, fitness centre and every dining area. Whether that reaches the outdoor tables is unstated, so confirm directly.

Fairmont Le Château Montebello

Montebello, Quebec

No weight limit is published, and a dog may be left in the room if crated — the hotel lends a metal cage when one is free. The $55 cleaning charge is per night, not per stay, and pets are barred from the lobby, every restaurant and bar, the pool and the health club. Whether the river terraces count is unstated.

Shangri-La Toronto

Toronto, Ontario

The hotel publishes only that pets are welcome for a fee — the $125 figure, the 50 lb ceiling and the one-pet limit all come from third-party listings, which contradict each other on whether the fee is charged per stay or per week and on whether a dog may be left in the room at all. Confirm every number directly.

Four Seasons Hotel Montreal

Montreal, Quebec

The hotel publishes no pet policy at all. A 2019 Four Seasons release says dogs and cats to 25 lb; three booking sites say 20 lb; every version is fee-free. Quebec closes Marcus's indoor rooms to pet dogs, and its third-floor terrace needs the restaurant's own yes. Confirm the limit with the hotel.

Four Seasons Resort and Residences Whistler

Whistler, British Columbia

Dogs of any size, two per room, no pet fee — the resort publishes its whole pet policy itself, which most entries here do not. It also states a dog should not be left unattended in the room, and with indoor dining and the lifts closed to pet dogs, that shapes the day. Nothing separate is published for the residences.

Fairmont Chateau Whistler

Whistler, British Columbia

Dogs stay for $50 a night and arrive to a bed, bowls and kibble, and the hotel keeps a resident dog of its own. They are barred from every restaurant here, the pool deck and the Gold lounge — and whether a dog may be left alone in the room is never stated, which is the thing to ask first.

Cheerio Checks InManoir Hovey — imagery coming soon

Manoir Hovey

North Hatley, Quebec

Dogs stay in the detached cottages, not the main house, and Le Hatley is closed to them — though a property representative says the Tap Room's lower terrace is not. The hotel publishes no pet policy at all, and the listings that carry one disagree on the fee and on whether a dog can be left alone.
