About St Bernards Hotel

Perched high on Tamborine Mountain, this historic escape pairs sweeping Gold Coast valley panoramas with cold pints and fireside comfort. Road-trippers head up for a proper Sunday session—where the resident Saint Bernard dogs lounge in the foyer and terrace tables look clear across the hinterland. Inside, wood-burning fireplaces cut through the mountain chill. Out on the deck, patrons dig into flaky steak and Guinness pot pies, crisp barramundi, and hearty pub fare while native kookaburras dart among the open garden seats.

  • Sweeping Hinterland Views: Elevated rear terrace and garden seating open onto broad panoramas of the valley and Gold Coast hinterland.
  • Resident Saint Bernards: Beloved canine mascots greet visitors in the foyer and roam the grounds throughout the day.
  • Mountain Pub Fare: Hearty staples like steak and Guinness pot pie and pan-cooked barramundi served alongside cold draught beers.
  • Fireside Timber Rooms: Wood-burning hearths warm traditional timber dining rooms during crisp mountain afternoons.
