Puppy Love
The Fitzwilliam Hotel is dog-friendly, and our new policy is sure to set tails wagging!
We have a selected number of dog-friendly bedrooms; but please note that we can only allow small dogs into the hotel and a maximum of one dog per room.
To book your dog to stay with us, please email reservations@fitzwilliamhotelbelfast.com or call our reservations team on 02890 442080. Dogs must be pre-booked and confirmed in advance with our reservations team.
Dogs will be charged at £40 per night and we ask for an additional £100 pre-authorisation on check in.
