Allawa Motor Inn

Allawa Motor Inn is a straightforward, owner-run motel in Albury that takes dogs in a limited number of designated pet-friendly rooms. Book ahead, confirm a pet room, and it is an easy, no-fuss base for crossing the Murray or stopping over on the Hume with the dog on board.

Dogs at the motel

Dogs are allowed in the Pet-Friendly Queen Rooms on request, and you need to book in advance because there are only a few of them. The limit is up to two dogs per room, with an additional charge of $30 per night per pet. Dogs are not permitted in the apartment-style room or inside the pool area. Confirm the pet room at the time of booking rather than assuming availability on arrival.

Max: two dogs and $30 a night each is the headline. Lock in a Pet-Friendly Queen Room when you book, because the apartment and pool areas are off limits.

The place itself

It is an older-style motel with comfortable queen beds, some rooms with a small kitchenette, and owners guests regularly describe as friendly and helpful. Expect a tidy, practical stay rather than polish, with the outdoor pool as the main shared facility. For a motel stop where the dog is genuinely catered for in-room, the setup is about right: easy parking at the door, rooms you can clean up after a muddy dog, and an easy run into central Albury for dinner and supplies.

Close by with the dogs

If Allawa is full, Albury Central Tourist Park is the caravan-park alternative in town, and The Albury Regent Motel is another central motel option. Public House is a dog-tolerant city pub worth knowing, and House of Ivy is a local cafe for a morning coffee run.
