Excellent service from all the staff at the retreat. They seem really passionate about what they do. Stayed at the animal view room and we were able to see a koala right outside our room. There were echidnas and wallabies roaming around too. Guests at the hotel also get complimentary entrance to the zoo which was awesome. The view at Me Gal was superb as we were able to see Sydney bridge and the Opera House.

What a magical place! We loved watching a koala outside of our beautiful animal view room every day. The private tours were especially enjoyable and informative, led by guides who are clearly passionate about wildlife and global conservation efforts. The breakfast buffet was outstanding, as was the view of Sydney from Me-Gal. We were impressed with every part of our stay. I will be missing this special place and recommending it to everyone I know considering a trip to the area!

This was a wonderful hotel. Great staff and service. Unfortunately we had animal view rooms, but the koala never moved by the windows of either of our rooms. One suggestion would be more food options for kids on the menu.

Check in was quick and efficient. We arrived at 12.00 and was pleasantly surprised that our room was ready. The room was comfortable and clean. Access into the Zoo was via your room key and the retreat had its own entry so you could come and go as you pleased. We had a fantastic time and would highly recommend a stay.

Staying at the retreat was amazing and one of those core memories that we will forever treasure with our kids. I love what they are doing and how our stay is contributing to the zoo's conservation efforts. Every penny was worth it and for a great cause too. If you're still thinking, don't. Book it now. Very convenient location to the zoo and we feel special too because they recognize the lanyards given by the hotel. The sanctuary tour was a treat and the breakfast with a view was heaven on earth. We hope to be back soon. I heard it is hard to book when the locals heard us that we're staying at the property. We were more than lucky!

Views from the lounge are the best in Sydney. Decor is really modern for rooms and common areas. Staff really friendly and the guided walks through the zoo are exceptional.
