Animal Experience: Guests frequently mention the unique opportunity to see animals like koalas and kangaroos right outside their rooms. The animal-themed rooms and guided tours, including night safaris, are highly praised. This immersive experience is a significant draw, particularly for families with children.

It's pretty good; we basically stay here once a year. Mainly, the kids love this hotel because they can get up close and personal with the animals. The night safari project, in particular, is great because it's less crowded and you can see the zoo at night.

Stayed three nights at this hotel in the wildlife park. It was very quiet at night, perfect for families with kids. I slept really well there. We were in room 521, the animal-themed room, and we could see a very cute kangaroo family right outside our window when we woke up in the morning. The hotel staff were also very friendly! I'd definitely stay here again next time!

This is a very interesting hotel, you can even go on a night tour. We booked an animal-themed room. The koala 🐨 was scratching its feet right below our room and then just fell asleep. This time was a bit rushed. Next time I'm in Sydney, I'm heading straight to this hotel to properly explore the zoo.

Was an incredible experience and will definitely return. Breakfast was amazing. Animals all around your room even more so. All the guided walks included were very enjoyable

Stayed 2 nights here in "animal view room". There are 4 rooms of such kind in our row and our room is 333 which is good as it is the second last on the row and the tree in front of our room is larger with thicker trunk which means the Koala usually chooses our tree to anchor. For other rooms on the row, I think it doesn't worth the higher room rate. King-bed was shown only online during booking but actually there are twin rooms available. One half-hour sanctuary walking tour per person is included in our package besides zoo entrance.

Picked animal room, but unfortunately I could not spot a lot of them. The sanctuary tour is fun.
