Hotel Indigo Gloucester - The Forum

Gloucester, Gloucestershire

Yes. Dogs can stay overnight, up to 2 dogs per room.

A boutique hotel in Gloucester city centre, steps from the Cathedral and the Docks, welcoming up to two dogs per room with a 15kg limit, on a lead.

Steps from the Cathedral and Gloucester Docks, Hotel Indigo Gloucester is a boutique hotel where historic character meets the city's creative energy, down to a vintage Cotton Motorcycle reworked in bright hand-stitched thread. It is a dog friendly hotel made for exploring the city on foot, side by side, from short strolls to café stops around the neighbourhood.

A room here can take up to two dogs, with a 15kg limit, and they should be kept on a lead and never left unattended. Book the pet package and your dog is looked after with a dog bed, a bowl, treats and a custom guide to dog friendly spots in Gloucester; without the extras, dogs are just as welcome. The hotel doesn't state which rooms take dogs, so tell the front desk about yours at booking.

West Window is the ground-floor bistro, cooking bright, wholesome food from locally sourced ingredients from morning bites to evening plates, while up on the roof Crimson Spire pours inventive cocktails on an outdoor terrace with views of the Cathedral, and Terraé serves coffee and light bites. The hotel doesn't mention dogs at any of these, so check ahead before planning a meal or a drink with yours.

Rooms have walk-in showers, coffee machines and air conditioning, and many look out over the city or the private courtyard garden. The Forest of Dean and the Cotswolds are within easy reach when you want a day in the country with your dog.
