The room was clean and comfortable with a nice out look of part of the zoo with resident Kangaroos. It was nice to access to the Zoo and the location of being able to jump on the Ferry to get around and access to buses was great. Food at the Restaurant was beautiful and view amazing.

We got the animal view room and it was great. The koala was well in sight and felt very private besides just seeing a few people on the sanctuary tour but that was still fine. Facilities were nice and great access to the zoo

Loved the setting of Taronga zoo. The magical views. The peace and quiet. The bird and animal noises. The native vegetation and native animals especially. Also enjoyed the two guided tours by well informed engaging staff. The meal at the restaurant was absolutely delicious - with the best view in the house👏service by drinks waiter Scott was top class. Also by hospitality. The only thing we weren’t happy with was the truely awful ?musty smell in our room (242) which we reported to reception on checking-out! Also suggested having two small swivel chairs in the room as would make it easier to watch TV (news) instead of straining one’s neck.. Thank you for having us. Lorraine McGee-Sippel and Kevin Sippel
