Staff was very helpful and friendly. The tours are fantastic.

Beautiful and idyllic location with views of Sydney. The room was lovely and clean. MY 8 and 10yo granddaughters experienced their first Room service. Breakfast was good. I did think the dinner menu was limited and the pizza was a little disappointing. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Fantastic experience, room slightly small but everything else was amazing. Most beautiful view of the city

Wonderful experience highly recommend

Brilliant. Stay before and will stay again

This hotel was a once-in-a-lifetime incredible experience. I can’t recommend it enough. We woke up every day to a koala in front of our window, private tours, private entrance to the zoo, amazing restaurant… a must stay!

The overnight stay was fantastic. The accommodation was spacious and comfortable with awesome views of the koalas and the city of Sydney. The staff were helpful and friendly. The breakfast was delicious. The kids especially had a wonderful time.

Our second stay here and lovely room looking out to koalas. Recommend getting the animal view room especially if you have kids travelling with you. Night tour was really great on our first visit a couple of years ago but quite underwhelming this time as we didn’t really see anything at all, aside from the dingoes. Included sanctuary tour in the afternoon was great. The friendly staff are a highlight of the visit and the easy included parking, ability to catch a ferry into the city to do other activities around Sydney was great too. Amazing location for views from Me Gal (restaurant onsite where included breakfast was served). Breakfast options weren’t very good this time compared to our last visit with pretty limited choices for a 5 star hotel. Room service choices were pretty limited too but good quality. Well laid out, compact rooms with comfortable furnishings.

We came from Perth to spend 4 nights at the Retreat. I cannot imagine a more wonderful place to stay for couples, groups or solo travellers. Every aspect is thoughtfully designed and aesthetically pleasing; it makes great use of the natural surroundings and materials are eco-friendly. We enjoyed evenings in the lamp-lit lounge and on the wide balcony watching the big city across the harbour. The buffet breakfasts were generous and delicious; guests’ attention drifted off with the intoxicating panorama. I loved that we were always in a relationship with the zoo. We could come and go through the days and joined a night tour plus small group Sanctuary tour led by zoo staff & volunteers. We met lesbian geese, an overweight menopausal echidna, daughters of a lioness who chose brains over swagger, a capybara who snuck out of his enclosure to let loose on a kids’ playground…I am missing the koala brothers snoozing in the tree right outside our room. The staff are happy and so they are kind, generous with stories and information. This was a genuine retreat for my daughter and me; I feel calmer but also energised. You should go!

Vistas increíbles! Desde el cuarto del restaurant el lobby. Desayuno variado y muy rico. Persona muy atento.
