  • How do I book?
    Our online portal is an easy fast way to book and secure your dog’s suite. For new guests your reservation is pending until a confirmation email is forwarded to you.
  • Do you require a deposit to book?
    Yes. The purpose of a deposit is to guarantee the accommodation dates you have reserved. This is especially relevant in a small boutique facility such as The Langley Luxury Dog Hotel. We offer a consistent and premium level of service that meets our customers and guests’ expectations. This cannot be achieved without trained and experienced staff whom we value and would not retain if we were to cut their shifts at short notice. A deposit of 50% of the total applicable fees for each suite booked is to be paid once you receive your email confirmation of your booking. Due to the number of enquiries received and the small number of suites available we request that this deposit is paid within 48 hours otherwise the booking will be cancelled. This deposit is refundable if thirty days’ notice in writing is given for cancellation of the booking. A non-refundable deposit of 50% for each suite booked is required for Easter, Christmas and the New Year, once you receive confirmation of your booking.
  • What are your admission requirements?
    It is a legal requirement that our guests are fully vaccinated and have a current C5 vaccination. These must be renewed yearly. Please ensure that your dog is up to date before their stay as we will be unable to admit them if they are out of date. We recommend that you provide evidence of their status at the time of booking. Please bring your dog’s vaccination card with you at check in. Canine Cough is a disease caused by several different organisms which typically causes a dry hacking cough. All guests staying at The Langley must have a current Canine Cough vaccine to be able to attend. Unfortunately, the Canine Cough vaccination, like the Influenza vaccination is not 100% effective and there is always a slight chance of guests contracting Canine Cough. We take every measure to minimize the risk including deep cleaning and sterilising of all vacated rooms, and daily cleaning of occupied rooms with F10/Safe4 veterinary disinfectant. If any guest arrives displaying signs of Canine Cough they will not be admitted. All guests must be flea free, and treatment must have been given not more than one month prior to admission. All guests must have had intestinal worm treatment not more than three months prior to admission. We pride ourselves on being a parasite free facility and documentation must be provided for flea and worm treatment at check in. If documentation is not available appropriate flea and worming treatment will be administered at an additional cost. Unsterilised female dogs and intact male dogs are accepted at the Manager’s discretion. Aggressive dogs are not welcome at The Langley Luxury Dog Hotel.
