What our guests are saying

Soaking in a copper bath on the balcony while giraffes wandered nearby? It’s the ultimate post-zoo treat.

Cathy Toogood, The Times

Although I’ve been fortunate enough to stay in hotel rooms with spectacular views in the past - from oceans to mountains - I have never stayed anywhere quite like this.

This is one of my favourite places that we’ve ever stayed.

What makes the stay even more enchanting is that each booking directly supports Chester Zoo's pioneering work both here in the UK and globally.

Another unforgettable part of our stay was the Giraffe Keeper Kitchen Experience… Watching the giraffes stretch their necks to enjoy what the children had made was a moment none of us will forget.
