Incredible property, wonderful staff, tours of the zoo and sanctuary are great. A unique and beautiful as well as restful way to stay in Sydney. The ferry at the zoo is a convenient way to get directly to Sydney proper. Would stay again.

Truly a beautiful experience... Highly recommend it. The included tour was such an unforgettable experience to get closer with some of the animals and learn their names and histories. I would very much encourage you to also take the after hours tour which was so worth it as an add-on. Room was comfortable, quiet, well maintained, and had a great view of a koala. I loved that I could break up my walking at the zoo over 2 days, even though I had checked out already! Amazing view of the city from Me-Gal and the lounge area. Thank you to all the staff.

Unique hotel experience—we would have loved to have stayed longer. Our room overlooked the sanctuary area of the zoo and we watched a koala, echidnas, wallabies and other wildlife from our room. The rate included a tour of the sanctuary, which was excellent, entry to the zoo, parking, and a lovely breakfast buffet in the stunning Ma Gel restaurant. Service was excellent, staff members were friendly and helpful, the zoo is wonderful and bed was comfortable. A beautifully appointed room and special experience.

Staffs are super friendly and helpful. The room is beyond expectations (Treetop) You can enjoy walking around the zoo on the daytime and don't forget experience a nightwalk zoo tour after closeing hour (must try!) Excellent buffet breakfast, Dinner is average as what you pay for and not many choices (but you can order delivery from other sources outside) It's a great experience overall.

Service here was incredible and the rooms with sliding doors that open right up to your animal neighbours was awesome. Me-Gal was also an excellent spot for dinner.

This place was hands down amazing! Waking up every morning to see a koala bear out your window just brings happiness to your heart. The staff was kind and amazing. Having the zoo at your finger tips was the best. Worth every penny.
