The overnight experience was awesome! The views were amazing from various angles on the property and including the zoo. Lots of walking, tennis shoes will take you further than a sandal. The ferry at the bottom of the hill, will take less than 10mins to the Opera House and bridge. If your hoping to see a koala bear from your room, you need to be staying in a room with eucalyptus trees. The restaurant on the property had a limited and pricey menu. The night time experience at the zoo was unimpressive, with not one animal seen except an alligator in his tank with a red flashlight shined on it. Maybe the last night tour should be done before actual darkness for safety walking around in the dark and catching the animals before they retreat to their enclosures. Overall, coming from the USA and spending the night was a treat!!

……if your hoping to see a koala bear outside your window, you need to be on the eucalyptus tree side. They rest there, not just any tree!

If you're planning to explore the Sydney Zoo during your stay in the city, I highly recommend booking a stay at the Sydney Wildlife Resort. This exceptional resort offers an classy experience, providing guests with exclusive tours throughout the day, including morning, afternoon, and night. One of the highlights of the resort is its delicious dining options, offering a culinary experience that rivals any 5-star establishment. Guests can indulge in delectable dishes while enjoying breathtaking views of Sydney, both during the day and at night. Convenience is another major plus point of staying at the Sydney Wildlife Resort. With easy access to the zoo, you can easily immerse in the wildlife without any hassle. Also, the sounds of the wildlife enhances the overall experience. The accommodations at the resort are impeccable, modern amenities, and beautiful decor that adds to the charm of the stay. Whether you're relaxing in your room or exploring the resort grounds, you'll be surrounded by elegance and comfort. The Wildlife Resort offers a truly unforgettable experience for someone looking to combine luxury accommodation with wildlife adventures. It was a highlight of our Australia visit!

Booked the animal view room and it was totally worth it!!! saw a very active koala just outside my window. Zoo tour was also really lovely. You can't hold or touch any animals but you can get very close to them. The ferry to cross the harbour is also right next to the zoo, very convenient to get into the city
