Blue Cattle Dog Hotel
Modern rooms and a big sports bar in one stop
About this stay
Blue Cattle Dog Hotel reads as a relaxed, no-fuss stop for families passing through, built around a large restaurant and sports bar rather than a quiet lobby. Free continental breakfast each morning takes one meal off the list before the day gets going, and the restaurant downstairs covers dinner without anyone needing to drive anywhere else. Rooms lean modern rather than dated, and kitchens in some rooms give longer-staying families the option to cook rather than eat out every night. The hotel sits a few minutes' walk from Mamre Road, an easy stop for families driving through western Sydney rather than a destination in its own right. Sydney Airport is a 43 minute taxi ride away, noticeably closer than many hotels in the Penrith area, and reasonably manageable on public transport too. Over 1,275 reviews back up a solid, dependable reputation for a straightforward family stay.

Our take
Blue Cattle Dog Hotel is a dependable, no-fuss choice for families and drivers in western Sydney. Free continental breakfast and free parking save time and hassle, some rooms add a kitchen, and the large restaurant and sports bar on site makes evenings easy. Its appeal is practical rather than scenic, with the sports bar as the main social space, so I would book it as a convenient base for the area rather than as a destination in itself.
- ✓Request one of the rooms with a kitchen if you are staying more than a night or two, since not every room includes one.
- ✓Take advantage of the shorter airport run here compared with other Penrith options, especially if you have an early flight to catch.
- ✓Eat free continental breakfast before checkout rather than stopping elsewhere, since it is included and saves time on a travel morning.
Why we love it
