What visitors mention
Pet policy
Yes, the Brassey Hotel in Barton, ACT, allows dogs to stay overnight in its accommodation. Pet Policy Details: - Size Limit: One dog up to 20 kg per room. - Fee: An additional fee of AU$80 per night, plus a refundable deposit of AU$150 per stay. - Restrictions: Pets cannot be left in the room unattended. - Amenities: Food and water bowls are provided in the room. - Other: Sorry, no cats. If you are looking for specific room types or want to confirm availability for your dates, I recommend checking with the hotel directly.
The Brassey Hotel is a heritage property in Barton, close to the Parliamentary Triangle, with a dedicated "Pooch Package" that makes it one of the more genuinely dog-friendly stays in Canberra rather than a place that merely tolerates pets.
The pet policy. One dog up to 20 kg per room, with a second dog for an extra fee. Expect an additional AU$80 per night plus a refundable AU$150 deposit per stay. Dogs must not be left unattended in the room, and need to be on a leash in all public, non-room areas. Cats are not accepted, and dogs are not permitted in the indoor dining areas. Confirm current rates and room availability directly with the hotel before booking.
The place. The Pooch Package includes a dog bed, food and water bowls, and a treat minibar in the room. The hotel itself is a quiet, heritage-style property with manicured gardens, set apart from the busier parts of central Canberra. There's an onsite spa, though it's off-limits to pets.
Location and nearby. The hotel sits on Macquarie Street in Barton, an easy walk from the Parliamentary Triangle and the leafy streets around it, with a grassy public walkway behind the building for a quick loop on the lead. Free onsite parking is available for guests. Barton and neighbouring Kingston have a handful of cafes with outdoor seating suited to a dog waiting at your feet, though check individual venues on the day.
Who it suits. Good for owners after a quiet, well-appointed base near the parliamentary precinct rather than a party strip, with one dog under 20 kg and a straightforward daily walk in mind.

Book direct and mention the dog when you do. Confirm the pooch package is running for your dates, and check the deposit and per-night fee before you arrive so there are no surprises at check-in.
