Where can my dog actually go?

Piedmont splits neatly in two for a dog. Turin is the easy half, a city of arcades and river paths with Parco del Valentino on the Po, and eleven four- and five-star hotels on our list that take dogs on clear published terms. The Langhe and Roero are the reason to come, with vineyard lanes, hazelnut groves and the Barolo Trail, which is dog friendly on a lead. Add two hotels on Lake Orta and there are nineteen on the list in all.

The access stories are out in the hills, not in the city. Il Boscareto at Serralunga d'Alba lets dogs into its rooms and public areas, everywhere except the spa, which is the most open rule of any luxury hotel in the Langhe. Whether that includes La Rei restaurant and the bar isn't published, so ask. Casa di Langa at Cerretto Langhe gives every room its own door onto the garden, so there are no lifts or corridors, and hands over a welcome kit, bowls and walking routes that start from the door. Relais San Maurizio at Santo Stefano Belbo puts dogs in rooms and suites with private gardens and lets them walk in the park. In Turin, dogs stay in the rooms and no hotel publishes restaurant access.

Fees in Turin are gentle. Grand Hotel Sitea and the Concord charge nothing, but take one small dog up to 10 kg. Hotel Indigo charges EUR 20 a stay, the Hilton EUR 25 a stay, Turin Palace and Principi di Piemonte EUR 30 a stay and Starhotels Majestic EUR 40 a stay for up to two pets. The two NH Collection hotels are the dearest in the city at EUR 35 per dog a night. In the hills, Il Boscareto and Villa d'Amelia charge EUR 25 per dog a night, Castello di Guarene, Calissano and Relais San Maurizio EUR 30, and Casa di Langa EUR 50 per dog a night with a 20 kg limit. For a big dog, Turin Palace takes one of any size for a flat EUR 30 a stay, opposite Porta Nuova station. In the Langhe, Castello di Guarene takes dogs of any size, and Villa d'Amelia takes two dogs up to 35 kg each.

Two things to know before you plan. Monferrato has nothing on our list, because none of its resorts publish a dog policy. And many of the boutique hotels around La Morra only take dogs on request, with no terms published, so they aren't here either. Much of the region's dog-friendly reputation comes from farm stays and B&Bs rather than its luxury hotels.

Daisy's picks

Where Daisy would book

  1. 01
    Il Boscareto Resort & Spa

    Dogs are allowed in the rooms and the public areas, everywhere except the spa, the most open rule of any luxury hotel in the Langhe. Vineyard lanes run straight out onto the Serralunga ridge. EUR 25 per dog a night, up to two dogs, and a published limit of 35 kg that's worth confirming when you book.

    EUR 25 · max 35 kg

  2. 02
    Casa di Langa

    Every room opens onto the garden, so no lifts or corridors, with a welcome kit, bowls and trails through woods and hazelnut groves from the door. The hotel even publishes its own guide to walking the Langhe with a dog. EUR 50 per dog a night, the highest in the region, and dogs up to 20 kg.

    EUR 50 · max 20 kg

  3. 03
    Relais San Maurizio

    Dog rooms and suites with their own private gardens, and the estate park is open to dogs. No weight limit. Around EUR 30 per dog a night with a refundable deposit on top, and ask whether the bed, bowls, blanket and evening biscuit are still part of the welcome.

    EUR 30 · max no limit kg

Before you go

What happens when you get there

Trams, buses and the metro
GTT, which runs Turin's buses, trams and metro, carries dogs with no fee, but they need a lead and a muzzle, or a carrier. Dogs can be refused when it's packed, and on the metro keep your dog clear of the doors while the closing signal sounds. Carry a muzzle even for a calm dog.
Parks in Turin
Parco del Valentino on the Po is the big one, with the Murazzi riverside walk leading to it. The Giardini Reali behind Palazzo Reale are central, and the Giardino Sambuy sits right in front of Porta Nuova station.
Weight limits
Grand Hotel Sitea and the Concord take small dogs up to 10 kg. Casa di Langa caps at 20 kg and the two NH Collection hotels at 25 kg. Principi di Piemonte gives a limit of 20 to 25 kg depending on where you look, so confirm it. The Hilton takes dogs up to 34 kg and Villa d'Amelia up to 35 kg. Turin Palace, Castello di Guarene and Relais San Maurizio take any size.
Two dogs
The Hilton, the AC Hotel, both NH Collection hotels and Starhotels Majestic take two in Turin. In the Langhe, Il Boscareto and Villa d'Amelia take two. Principi di Piemonte, Turin Palace, Sitea and the Concord take one.
Wine tastings
Casa di Langa says tasting with your dog is now standard practice at many Langhe estates, with outdoor spaces set aside. Ask each winery before you go, particularly whether your dog can join the cellar tour or only the terrace tasting.
Truffle season
The Alba International White Truffle Fair runs from 10 October to 6 December 2026. Whether dogs can go into the indoor market isn't published, so ask before you go. Truffle hunts use the hunter's own trained dog, so check with the operator whether yours can come along on a lead.
Getting there
Turin Airport at Caselle has flights from London, Manchester, Edinburgh, Bristol and Dublin, many of them seasonal, so check this year's schedules. For Lake Orta, Milan Malpensa is nearer. With a dog, the practical route from the UK is driving via the Channel and the Fréjus or Mont Blanc tunnels, and from Ireland it's the ferry to France and then the drive.
Heat and closures
Turin and the lower Langhe get hot in July and August, so walk early and late. Castello di Guarene closes from 8 January to 9 February, Il Boscareto does works in January and February, and Villa d'Amelia's restaurant, spa and pool close from 8 to 26 December.
Best walks
In Turin, Parco del Valentino and the Murazzi along the Po, the Giardini Reali behind Palazzo Reale, and the Parco Archeologico around Porta Palatina. In the Langhe, the Barolo Trail on a lead, the Big Bench (Panchina Gigante) hikes of the Alta Langa, the vineyard lanes on the Serralunga ridge and the hazelnut groves round Benevello and Santo Stefano Belbo. In the Roero, the sandy woodland lanes from the edge of Guarene. At Lake Orta, the wooded Sacro Monte above Orta San Giulio and the lakeside path at Pettenasco.
When to go
Spring and early autumn are best for walking with a dog, with September and October bringing the harvest and the Alba White Truffle Fair from 10 October to 6 December 2026. July and August are hot in Turin and the lower Langhe, so plan walks for early morning and evening. Winter is quiet but several of the Langhe hotels close or run works in January and February.

Yes, with walking to match. Six luxury hotels on our list take dogs, the Barolo Trail is dog friendly on a lead, and many wine estates now have outdoor space for tasting with a dog.
