A bed that's actually theirs
An orthopaedic bed sized to your dog, made up with washed linen and left in a quiet corner away from the door. Raised water bowls in every room.
Kingsgate Yard · City centre · 38 rooms
Plenty of hotels allow dogs. We built this one around them. Every room, menu and member of staff starts with the dog. You still get a proper city break, a good dinner and a room you'd want to stay in anyway.
“Not dog-friendly. Dog-first.”
For dogs
An orthopaedic bed sized to your dog, made up with washed linen and left in a quiet corner away from the door. Raised water bowls in every room.
Going to a gallery, a meeting or the theatre? Your dog spends the day in our supervised club with a garden, nap pods and small groups matched by temperament.
Fresh-cooked meals written with a canine nutritionist. Bring their usual food and we'll serve that at their usual times. Every allergy is logged when you arrive.
Our in-house groomer does a wash and blow-dry, a nail trim, or the full spa if they've earned it. Book it at check-in and they come back to the room smelling better than you.
Three set walks a day through the parks and the river path. You can join in, or leave it to us and enjoy a lie-in.
We have a partner practice four minutes away, a trained first-aider on every shift, and your dog's records on file before you arrive.
The floors are soundproofed, the corridors have soft corners, and we keep a quiet wing for anxious dogs and older ones. Pheromone diffusers come on request.
When they're at Day Club you get a photo and a short note on your phone. It covers how they ate, who they played with and how long they slept.

Downstairs there's a small spa with treatment rooms for people. Your dog can be in the Parlour next door having their own treatment while you're in yours.
A day at Wagstaff
“Hotels usually put up with Monty. This one was clearly delighted he'd come. Then they did the same for us.”
Hannah & Monty, Irish wolfhound
“Pickle has anxiety and we've never managed a city break with her. The quiet wing and the Day Club team made it possible.”
Raj & Pickle, rescue whippet
Book a stay
We ask for your dog's details before we ask for your card. That way the bed, the meals and the walk times are sorted before you arrive.
