Bring your dog if
- You're happy with a standard hotel-room stay where the property explicitly welcomes dogs
- You're basing yourself in Perth / the Scotland and want a pet-friendly anchor for day trips
- The wider guest experience is strong - guests rate this 8.7/10 overall on booking platforms
Worth knowing
- Paw rating is based on 2 reviews - limited sample, treat as directional
- Pet fee: £25 per pet per stay (max 2 pets) - research-verified; confirm at booking
- Shared corridors and common areas mean nervous or vocal dogs may find it harder to settle
How this review was built Evidence, sources, refresh cadence
- Evidence: 2 pet-mention guest reviews sourced from major booking platforms - guests who explicitly mentioned travelling with a dog. Each review is screened for pet-relevance, then judged for sentiment to compute the paw rating.
- Not a personal visit. We don't stay at every hotel we cover - we summarise patterns from real guest reviews, paraphrased and never quoted verbatim. Full standard on our editorial policy page.
- Wider context: The property has 193 guest reviews overall across booking platforms, averaging 8.7/10 - the paw rating reflects only the pet-mentioning subset.
- Last refreshed: October 2026. Policies and pricing drift; we re-check on a rolling basis. Confirm specifics with the property at the moment you book.
- How the paw rating works: Full detail on the methodology page, including the three verification gates and known limitations.
Pet policy at a glance
- Pet fee: £25 per dog, per stay.
- Up to two pets per booking.
- Dogs are specifically listed as allowed (not all pet-friendly hotels include cats - check directly if travelling with a non-canine pet).
Pet-friendly summary
Travelodge Perth Broxden Junction is a straightforward, low-cost place to break a journey with a dog, and it does the thing that matters most on a driving day: it takes the dog without making it complicated. Dogs are specifically allowed here, up to two per booking, and the charge is a flat £25 per dog for the whole stay rather than a nightly rate - so a three-night stop costs the same as a single night.
What dog owners consistently pick out is the welcome at reception. Staff treat the dog as a guest rather than a problem to be processed, and for people who cannot leave a dog at home for more than a night or two, that matter-of-fact hospitality is what makes the trip possible at all.
The site itself helps. It sits on open ground at the Broxden trunk road service area, where the A9, M90 and A93 meet, with a strip of grass beside the car park that is enough for a leg-stretch on arrival and last thing at night. There is a pub next door and several fast-food outlets within a minute's walk, and Perth city centre is a couple of minutes' drive away - close enough to be useful, far enough back from the streets that nights stay quiet.
Set expectations accordingly. This is a budget roadside hotel, not a country retreat: there are no pet amenities on site, the outdoor space is a verge rather than a garden, and the walking from the door is service-area walking. With two dogs the fee doubles to £50, which is worth factoring in.
Best suited to drivers heading north or south on the A9 who need a clean, cheap overnight where the dog is genuinely welcome, and to anyone visiting Perth who would rather park easily on the edge of town than negotiate the centre. It earns a 4.6/5 paw rating.
