We had a lovely stay, sadly we didn't have long enough but next time we will make sure we have plenty of time to enjoy the facilities available for longer. on arrival there is plenty for kids, a big tv in reception with bean bags, plenty of arcades, animal theme throughout. The food albeit expensive was very good, the breakfast included with the stay was excellent, so much choice and to watch the giraffes have their breakfast whilst we ate ours was truly magical!

Hotel was nice but we stayed in an Aztec Monkey Wanyana view room, it could have been better for the price we paid. Just little touches like a big monkey bear in the room and animal biscuits for the kids would be nice. There was no entertainment on and we stayed a Saturday night, just a movie playing in reception. Wasn’t as special as the additional money we paid for a better room.

This is a fun place to stay. I booked a safari-themed family room to sleep 5 even though it was just me staying. Room rate included parking, breakfast and use of the pool. Room was a little tired but clean and perfectly fine for an overnight stay. There’s no overhead light in the bedroom area (just the corridor by the door) so it could be a challenge if you plan to read, etc. There’s a fridge in the room which can be a little noisy but I slept fine with my usual earplugs. The bunk beds had complimentary Freddo frog chocolates so I enjoyed those. The pool is a lovely bonus. It wasn’t busy when I stayed as it was a weekday during school term. There’s a bar and two restaurants. The food options are mostly burgers, pizzas and ‘from the grill’ options. Not much for a vegetarian so I chose the two cocktails for £18 option and had packed snacks back in my room. While this isn’t aimed at the single adult overnight stay, I’d definitely stay again. Nice people and a fun place to stay. It cost the same as a more standard B&B which wouldn’t have given me the chance to see giraffes and zebras at breakfast. I met other single travellers who also felt this was a bargain midweek and much better than a standard hotel. Everyone was leaving happy in the morning.

Nice night away with a good view. Just needs a bit

Check in staff and staff around the hotel were all helpful and friendly. Room was a good size with a great view, however it is in need of renovations. Dinner was nice but the service staff were slow and we witnessed multiple tables being served food before drinks, including ourselves.
