Blazing Stump Motel & Suites Wodonga

Blazing Stump Motel & Suites on Anzac Parade is a modern, well-rated Wodonga motel that genuinely welcomes dogs, with a pub next door for dinner and free parking right outside the rooms. It sits just off the Hume Highway and only a few minutes from the Albury CBD across the border, which makes it an easy overnight stop for travellers and for dog owners crossing between VIC and NSW, but pet rooms are limited and can only be booked by phone, so plan ahead.

Dogs at the motel

Pet-friendly rooms must be booked by phone on 02 6056 3433, not online, and numbers are limited. An additional fee applies, often quoted around $20 to $25 per night, and a deposit or property inspection may be required. Size limits can apply - reports mention up to around 10 kg and one dog per room - and policies shift, so confirm the current rules on the booking call. Many pet rooms are non-carpeted for easy clean-up.

Pepsi: Phone direct and ask three things in one go - the pet fee, the deposit and the size limit. Then bring your own bowls and bedding.

The place

Rooms are spacious and modern, and the property has saltwater and conventional pools, a gym and a tennis court. It sits directly beside The Blazing Stump Hotel for bistro meals, so you can eat well without leaving a dog alone for long.

Close by with the dogs

Belvoir Park Dog Park is the local fenced run for stretching legs after a highway day, Blind Freddy's Cafe does morning coffee, and Church St Hotel is another dining option nearby.

More options are on the Wodonga destination page, and the full list is in the VIC stays index.
