Whyalla is a coastal city full of spirited people and colourful contrasts found between the desert on Eyre Peninsula and Spencer Gulf.  Blessed with Mediterranean weather, a wonderful foreshore and home to a natural phenomenon – the annual Giant Cuttlefish migration between May to August. Whyalla is in the midst of a tourism renaissance – you will be in for a real surprise and understand why the locals love where they live.

The Eyre Hotel is a historic hotel centrally located on Playford Avenue. We are the first hotel you see when you enter from Port Augusta, and five minutes’ drive to the Whyalla foreshore.

Serving the community for over 60 years, the Eyre Hotel is a hotel packed with personality where families, mates, work colleagues and tourists are welcome to relax over pub classics watching their favourite team in the front bar or simply take their time grazing on our locally inspired menu in our spacious family bistro. In the warmer months many flock outside to enjoy the weather in our award winning beer garden, deck and private booths.

Since undergoing an extensive renovation, our distinctive spaces and hotel accommodation have a touch of luxury, a dash of nostalgia with a local industrial twist owing to the city’s rich steel history.

We have actively created a space of welcome and community that champions local producers - whether it be early morning breakfast, coffee, lunch or dinner – every dish pays homage to home-grown heroes mostly sourced from the Eyre Peninsula region, whilst providing a relaxed place to connect and engage over a vast selection of brews, wines and spirits.

Whether you are a local, visiting for work or travelling to the Eyre Peninsula we invite you take a breather in our great place. Relax, stay and unwind - enjoy our company and the best the Eyre Peninsula has to offer.

We love welcoming new people.
