The Wildlife Retreat at Taronga is the best ever! We enjoyed zoo access, night time zoo tour, and sanctuary tour (inner courtyard of the hotel is an animal sanctuary with 2 or 3 koalas and a number of wallaby related marsupials, echidnas and birds. Staff at this non-profit wildlife facility are there because they are passionate, which comes across in ALL of their work. Facility is just 5 years old and brilliantly maintained. The room layouts are contemporary - not large, but brilliantly designed. We enjoyed an animal view room (looking into the sanctuary), but others with zoo views were similarly enthused by their accommodations. The lobby/lounge is breathtaking. Our booking included a great breakfast each day, zoo admission, zoo and sanctuary tours.

Hotel is super nice and the staff is super friendly. The highlight is the sanctuary where you can see Australian animals like echidnas, wallabies, and koalas running around. Highly recommend.

The reception lounge is a convenient central place to meet with others or wait to be collected for your tour, well equipped with bar, inside/outside areas and the most amazing view of the Sydney harbor. Our rooms were lovely with a great view over the Australian animals area, we had a koala outside the window and an echidna walking around in view outside. Well equipped rooms with quality features and fixtures. Staff were amazing.

Best place ever to stay!! The wildlife preserve was amazing and when staying there you got to go to animal feedings and tour at night with a guide using a red light that doesn’t hurt the animals eyes. Food there was wonderful. You could walk through the zoo to get a ferry to Sydney. Best views of Sydney from the zoo. 5 stars all around!

Great family overnight stay
This was an amazing experience from start to finish. The room was comfortable and we had a sanctuary view, we woke up to a koala in the tree outside our window! The lounge area had gorgeous views of the harbor and opera house and the direct access to the zoo was a huge bonus. We opted for a night tour which I highly recommend as some of the animals are more active at night. Overall this was an unforgettable experience and we'd highly recommend.

Beautiful Retreat in the Taronga Zoo
This is the most amazing place I have ever stayed at, and i travel a lot. It's just beautiful, everyone friendly & helpful, so modern & comfortable. It is inside the Taronga zoo & non profit so it supports the zoo animals. AND there is a koala sleeping right outside my window!!!
