Crystalbrook Albion

A 2025 Michelin Key recipient tucked down a Surry Hills laneway, Crystalbrook Albion is a former 1900s convent reimagined as one of Sydney's most stylish boutique stays — and one of its most dog-friendly. Dogs and cats of any size are welcome for a flat fee of $130 per stay, which covers a plush pet bed, bowls, and thoughtful welcome touches.

Pet guests are set up in ground-floor Urban rooms with hardwood floors and direct outdoor access — ideal for early morning walks. Step outside and you're in one of Sydney's most pet-permissive neighbourhoods, with Harmony Park, Frog Hollow Reserve, and Prince Alfred Park's off-leash areas all within easy walking distance.

With no size limit on pets and a neighbourhood built for exploring, it's one of the most effortless dog-friendly city stays in Australia.
