1. Fairmont Hotel Macdonald, for fairytale architecture

The rooms are similarly dreamy – with classic marble bathrooms and access to a lounge with evening canapes and an honor bar.

2. Element Edmonton West, for spacious studios

Pet-friendly hotels in Edmonton don’t get much better than this one, where even the entry-level rooms are studio apartments with their own kitchenettes and plenty of space for you and your fur babies. Nearby La Perle Park is a favorite among dog walkers – while wilderness areas within reach include the wetlands, boardwalks and nature trails of Lois Hole Centennial Provincial Park.
3. The Westin Edmonton, for city panoramas

The sleek guest rooms at this downtown Edmonton hotel have a classic look – all dark wood and grey textiles. Your pooch will love looking out the large windows at the sweeping city views and taking zoomies around the deluxe suites’ large living areas. When they’re worn out, curl up together on the comfy leather corner sofas. An indoor pool and fitness studio allow you to keep on top of your own workout routine when you stay, too.
5. Matrix Hotel, for urban pooches
Boutique Hotel, Hotel
Travelers with an eye for aesthetics will appreciate the sleek, contemporary design of this downtown hotel – with guest rooms decked out in voguish shades of grey and dark wood and bathrooms carved from granite. Ascend to the loft each morning for a feast-like breakfast-spread before heading out with your pets to enjoy Edmonton’s buzzing town center and the Alberta Legislature Grounds – an attractive city park packed with water fountains, just a short walk away.
6. Metterra Hotel on Whyte, for walk-out patios and riverside parks
Boutique Hotel, Hotel
Burgundy and ochre feature walls and dark wood furnishings make a grand impression at this Edmonton hotel. Opt for a room with a walk-out patio so your four-legged friend can get some fresh air while you relax in the spa shower or whirlpool tub. When you’re ready for a bite and they’re itching to stretch their legs, stroll over to the buzzing Strathcona Farmers Market en route to the riverside walking trails of Nellie McClung Park.
7. Coast Edmonton Plaza Hotel, for Japanese-inspired design
Hotel
Attention to detail is everything at this downtown hotel in Edmonton. Origami cranes welcome you into your room in a nod to the hotel company’s Japanese heritage – also reflected in the minimalist, earthy aesthetic of the rooms and the TOTO high-tech washlet toilets. Despite being over 1,000mi (1,609km) from the coast, the indoor saltwater pool brings a taste of the ocean. Although your pooch won’t be able to dive in with you, they can always have a splash in the pond at Beaver Hills House Park right next door.
8. Sandman Signature Edmonton South Hotel, for understated cool
Hotel
A cool grey color palette and minimalist design await in the guestrooms of this popular hotel – with kitchens for you to self-cater in the suites and whirlpool baths available in the Jacuzzi Suites. An indoor pool means you can take some lengths regardless of the weather outside and pets are very welcome by arrangement – be sure to take them to nearby Blackmud Creek for riverside walks.
