The wildlife retreat was the highlight of our entire trip. We love visiting Taronga zoo and having enough time to explore over two days was great. The hotel is beautiful with amazing views and the staff are super friendly. Loved the little tour of the animals in the hotel grounds. Such a beautiful stay!

I just absolutely adore the whole idea of this property. I love the wonderful design, the peace in a huge busy city. It is like an oasis of green and blue. Looking over the most majestic harbor in the world. And I've seen plenty. The staff were simply amazing and so friendly compared to the big swanky hotels in the city. I just love, love, love it.

We loved staying in this beautiful retreat. We had a Koala right outside our window and it was the perfect way to spend our first two nights in Australia after a long flight. We got to have a private sanctuary tour and also a night tour of the zoo. Mostly everyone was very friendly too. We had breakfast in the upstairs restaurant one of the days and they offered many options to choose from. It's also very easy to get into Sydney's main harbour by taking the ferry. The rooms are nice and spacious and have amazing views. We would absolutely stay again.
