A hydraulic bearing device that supports a rotating shaft comprises a bearing metal. On a surface of the bearing metal, a hydrostatic pocket and a land portion are formed. The land portion is defined by the hydrostatic pocket and generates hydrodynamic pressure. The hydraulic bearing device further comprises a pressure fluid supplying source and an oil-supplying hole. The oil-supplying hole is opened in the hydrostatic pocket and provides pressure fluid from the pressure fluid supplying source to the hydrostatic pocket. On the land portion, a drain hole that drains the fluid is formed. Since the fluid is drained through the drain hole, thermal expansion of the bearing metal due to heat generation of the fluid is restrained. Moreover, since the drain hole does not separate the land portion, deterioration of bearing rigidity is restrained.
