What visitors mention
Pet policy
Designated pet-friendly rooms only, flagged ahead so the hotel can allocate. $50 cleaning fee per stay; no published size limit.
The Alabama Hotel is a boutique stay on Level 1 at 72 Liverpool Street in central Hobart, a characterful, good-value property with a relaxed pub-heritage feel a short walk from the North Hobart dining strip and the CBD. It takes dogs, but only in specific rooms arranged ahead, so this is a confirm-first booking rather than a turn-up one.
Dogs at the Alabama
Dogs are accommodated in designated pet-friendly rooms, not the standard rooms, and an additional cleaning fee of $50 per stay applies. There is no published weight or size limit, so you must tell the hotel about your dog in advance: that lets them confirm your dog suits the room and set the right one aside. Booking platforms vary in how they present the policy, so make the arrangement directly with the hotel rather than relying on a general reservation. Bring your own bed and bowls.
Pepsi: A boutique hotel with shared facilities is a people-dog arrangement, not a kennel run. Confirm the room, then enjoy having the whole city at the door.
The vibe
Guests consistently mention comfortable beds, a balcony in some rooms, an in-room fridge, welcoming staff and spacious shared facilities. Some rooms share bathrooms, which is part of how the price stays friendly. The building is central and walkable rather than a resort, so the setup suits a couple or solo traveller using Hobart as a base.
Getting there and parking
The hotel sits on Level 1 at 72 Liverpool Street, between the CBD and North Hobart. Parking is on-street or at nearby paid lots rather than on site, so plan a short walk with the dog from the car. The airport is about 20 minutes away.
Close by with the dogs
The Queens Domain's green edges are within walking reach for an on-lead leg-stretch, and better is a short drive out. The John Turnbull Park Fenced Dog Park in Lenah Valley has separate zones for big and small dogs, the Hobart Rivulet Park is a lead-friendly corridor running from the city edge toward kunanyi/Mount Wellington, and the Knocklofty Summit Loop offers bushland walking above West Hobart. Abercrombie Coffee on the North Hobart strip is the morning stop.
