Dog Friendly Stay at The Blue Hotel Bondi

Bondi buzz, boutique style and pups treated like rockstars.

The Blue Hotel is Bondi through and through: bold, fun and built for a new generation of travellers who want more character than a chain and more comfort than a sharehouse. With no stiff lobbies or overpriced extras, it delivers luxury beds, superfast WiFi, chesterfield couches and co-working spaces at a price point that makes sense. And if you’re bringing your dog, the Pawsome Package makes sure they’re as pampered as you are.

Here’s what it looks like checking into The Blue Hotel Bondi with a pup – from rockstar welcomes to balcony hangs.

Staff Friendliness

The team leans into the pet welcome, with staff who are used to dogs and happy to help make their stay (and yours) easy.

Our Take

The Blue is a little disruptive, a little cheeky, and a lot Bondi. The rooms are stylish without being over the top, the rates are smarter than most boutique hotels, and the pet policy is simple. The Pawsome Package gives dogs their own bed, bowls and treats, while the neighbourhood gives you Bondi Beach and coastal walks to fill your days. It’s fun, flexible and unapologetically modern.

Staying at The Blue Hotel Bondi

The Blue is designed for the “entrepreneurial class” – travellers who don’t want someone to carry their bags but do want stylish suites, chesterfield couches, huge TVs and great wifi. With no lobby small talk and no overpriced minibar, the focus is on comfort, design and connection. Suites give you space to work, sleep and socialise and the communal areas encourage mingling with locals or fellow travellers over a cocktail. The location means you’re right in Bondi’s mix: cafés, nightlife, the beach, and that famous cliffside walk.

Why We Recommend The Blue Hotel Bondi

Because it nails the sweet spot between boutique indulgence and Bondi lifestyle. The dog-friendly policy is generous, the vibe is playful, and the location is unbeatable. For travellers who want a hotel that feels more like a local hub – with their dog welcomed along – The Blue is the one to book.
