Watsons Bay Hotel

An east Sydney icon for over 180 years, Watsons Bay Hotel is a sprawling waterside institution where dogs are welcome in the lower Beach Club area. The Beach Club features a generous beer garden with striped umbrellas overlooking Sydney Harbour and the skyline beyond — some of the best water views available at any Sydney pub.

The venue encompasses multiple bars, dining options and boutique hotel rooms, managing to feel simultaneously casual and refined. The relaxed, dog-friendly approach throughout the Beach Club makes it less about finding a venue that tolerates dogs and more about discovering a legendary Sydney destination where your dog simply belongs.
