Argyle Accommodation

Argyle Accommodation is a budget stay on Argyle Street in the Hobart CBD, and the pet policy is unusually simple: dogs of any size are welcome for an additional fee, with cats sometimes allowed on request. If you travel with a large dog, that no weight cap matters, because plenty of city properties quietly exclude bigger breeds.

Dogs at Argyle Accommodation

Dogs of any size are allowed, and third-party listings report a fee of around $40 per pet with a maximum of two. Pets need to be requested and approved in advance, so flag it when you book rather than turning up with the dog and hoping. The exact fee and pet-friendly room availability are not published in detail, so confirm both directly with the property before you lock in your dates.

The rooms are practical rather than plush: air conditioning, heating, flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi, with a communal kitchen and laundry on site. Guest feedback regularly mentions comfortable beds, tidy rooms, modern bathrooms and welcoming staff, and some rooms have a balcony view. Note that a few configurations use shared or external bathrooms rather than an ensuite, so ask for what suits you when booking.

The location

You are in the middle of Hobart, with shops, supermarkets and the waterfront all within walking distance. That makes on-lead strolls easy straight from the door, and the Queens Domain is a short drive away when your dog needs a proper run. Bring your own dog bed and bowls, as you would for any city motel stay.

Make a day of it

Hobart is an easy city to explore with a dog on lead. The Knocklofty Summit Loop in West Hobart gives you a bushwalk with city views, while Brewwich and the Rendezvous Cafe in Battery Point cover coffee and a meal nearby. If you want to compare other pet-friendly stays in the city, The Alabama Hotel is another central option.
