We all love our four-legged friends. One of the hardest things to do is to leave our lovely dogs behind as we nervously try to remember if we’ve mentioned every possible detail to your dog-sitter to ensure our canine is safe and happy.
You can skip all that worry now though, as here is a list of the best hotels you and your pup can go to for a quick city break in Dublin.
The Five Most Dog-Friendly Hotels in Ireland
The Mont Hotel, Merrion Street Lower
The Mont Hotel, situated right in the heart of the city, only a stone’s throw from Merrion Square is a perfect base for you and your bowwow. On arrival at the Mont you may be lucky enough to be greeted by Monty, the guest relations ‘pawfficer’ at the Mont Hotel.
The Mont hotel has dedicated multiple rooms as their ‘doggie rooms’ for small to medium-sized dogs. The rooms include all that you would expect with any hotel booking with the inclusion of some dog toys and a dog mat for your furry friend.
The food at the Mont is also a reason to stay in itself. Its Italian-styled restaurant Speranza is quite a hit with the locals. Unfortunately, your four-legged friend can’t join you in the restaurant under hotel rules but they can meet you in the bar afterwards for a nightcap as the bar is dog friendly.

The Hilton, Charlemont Place
The Hilton is very nicely located overlooking the Grand Canal. A quick 10-minute stroll to St. Stephens Green is a great adventure for you and your pup where I’m sure he or she will meet many other furry friends along the way.
When you and your companion arrive at the Hilton your friend will be greeted with a treat. During their stay, they receive their own doggy bed and water bowl.
If you want to treat your furry friend to a special experience you can attend a high tea with your dog that includes some gourmet treats for your loyal friend.
