About This Guide
Sydney has embraced pet-friendly travel with open arms, and these hotels lead the pack. Whether you're traveling with a Great Dane or a Chihuahua, each property on our list has been vetted for genuine pet welcome — not just a grudging 'pets allowed' policy, but thoughtful amenities that make your companion feel as pampered as you. Our top pick, Bondi Beach House, stands out for its dedicated pet concierge service and custom pet beds. Adina Apartment Hotel Sydney offers a particularly impressive pet menu, while The Old Clare Hotel provides a private garden area perfect for morning walks. When choosing a pet-friendly hotel in Sydney, location matters as much as pet policy. We've prioritised properties near parks, walking trails, and pet-friendly restaurants so you and your companion can explore together without constant taxi rides back to the hotel.

Call the hotel directly to confirm current pet policies — size limits and breed restrictions can change.
Pack your pet's favourite bed or blanket to help them settle in unfamiliar surroundings.
Ask the concierge for pet-friendly restaurant recommendations near the hotel.
Research Sydney's parks and green spaces before arrival for exercise options.
Our Picks
6 hotels · Updated February 2026
Bondi Beach
A boutique guesthouse two blocks from Bondi Beach offering a genuine beach house atmosphere in Sydney's most famous seaside suburb. Communal outdoor spaces, surfboard hire, and the Bondi café scene on your doorstep.
Central
Spacious, serviced apartments in a well-positioned modern building near Central Station, ideal for longer stays, families, or those who need kitchen facilities. Excellent value for central Sydney and excellent transport connections via Central Station.
Chippendale
A 62-room boutique hotel within two heritage buildings — a former Carlton United Brewery administration building and a 1930s pub — at the gateway to Sydney's most design-forward suburb. Its rooftop pool, Clare Bar, and proximity to the Sydney Museum of Contemporary Art make it a strong creative traveller choice.
The Rocks
A bastion of old-world luxury near Circular Quay with Sydney's most celebrated hotel spa, an exceptional Michelin-calibre kitchen, and rooms of timeless elegance. The Langham's afternoon tea is possibly the finest in Australia.
Overlooking the Opera House and Circular Quay from its elevated CBD position, the Four Seasons Sydney delivers 531 rooms of pure luxury with a rooftop pool, award-winning spa, and multiple restaurants. The Opera House and Harbour Bridge views from upper floors are sensational.
Millers Point
A beautifully restored heritage hotel in the quiet, historic Millers Point neighbourhood above the Rocks with a rooftop bar that offers some of Sydney's most unexpected and spectacular harbour views — a hidden gem at notably lower prices than the waterfront giants.
