Gladstone Motel

Gladstone Motel at 83 Toolooa Street, South Gladstone, takes dogs overnight, but on a tight policy: it is set up for one small dog rather than a couple of big ones. If your dog fits the size limit, it is a straightforward town-side motel stop.

The pet policy. Listings put the limit at one pet up to about 6 kg, with a fee of roughly AUD 50 per pet, per night, plus a AUD 50 deposit per stay. Pets cannot be left unattended in the room, and service animals are exempt from fees. These figures come from booking platforms and can shift, so confirm the size cap, fee and which rooms are pet-friendly with the motel directly before booking.

The place. A standard roadside motel with a middling review score; expect functional rooms rather than anything special. Reviewers land around the average mark, so treat it as a practical overnight.

Location and nearby. Toolooa Street puts you close to South Gladstone cafes and food, so a coffee or a feed with the dog on the footpath is a short walk or drive away.

Who it suits. Best for travellers with one small dog under the weight cap who need a central, no-fuss overnight.

Before you book. Call to confirm the current pet fee, the deposit, the size limit and the unattended-pet rule, since the online figures may be dated.
