The Commercial Hotel Wallerawang

The Commercial Hotel, known locally as the Wang Hotel, is a traditional country pub on Main Street in Wallerawang that also runs pet-friendly cabin accommodation. If you are passing through on the way to Mudgee or Lithgow and want a dog-friendly overnight stop rather than a paddock, this is the practical option in town.

The pet policy. Dogs are welcome in the one-bedroom cabin accommodation, which is set up for small pets. A cleaning fee applies to pet bookings. The hotel does not publish a strict weight limit online, so confirm at booking whether your dog fits their idea of small, especially if you are travelling with a larger breed.

The place. The cabins have a queen bed, ensuite bathroom, kitchenette and living area, which gives you somewhere to settle a dog away from the main bar. The pub itself is a classic country hotel with cold beer and casual meals, and reviewers mention friendly staff and locals. Some outdoor areas around the pub have allowed dogs on a case-by-case basis, so treat the bar as staff discretion rather than a given, and stick to the cabin for anything overnight.

Location and nearby. The hotel sits in the centre of town on Main Street, a short walk from Wallerawang Railway Station, with free onsite parking. Lake Wallace, with its fenced off-leash dog area, is a few minutes away and makes an easy walk before or after check-in. Thompsons Creek Dam is also nearby for further exploring.

Who it suits. Good for a straightforward overnight stop with a small dog if you are travelling the Castlereagh Highway corridor and want a bed rather than a campsite. Less suited to larger dogs or anyone wanting resort-style pet facilities.
