From start to finish the trip was amazing! The room was very clean and ridiculous for a three star! The bed was so comfortable and the hotel food was something else. No one should listen to those trip advisor reviews!

All Staff excellent, unexpected upgrade was a bonus, hotel itself very modern and all amenities catered for. However house keeping need to pay more attention to detail! hairs on bedding, room floors dirty/grimey, balcony glass needs algae removing and cigarette butts left on balcony (we don't smoke) which was a shame as everything else was perfect

We booked a premium family room with a balcony (park view) and a twin (park view) Staff were amazing, I contacted them to request if both rooms could be close together. I got a phone call back from a lovely lady (I wish I got her name) to offer a room upgrade for Twin to a Suite. Unfortunately it meant being on a different floor so I politely declined. Upon arrival they had managed to implement an even better upgrade as it was only 2 doors away. Having an autistic son who likes to visit his Grampa, this made him very happy. Can’t thank you enough! The rooms are always clean and bright. Love staying here, we always seem to get a balcony with a view of the Maned Wolves, which we love as they are quite active and playful. Got some great snaps and the children loved it! Food from the Bistro and evolution of was lovely and service both nights was spot on. This is an annual visit for us around Christmas and it’s amazing.

The family room with bunkbeds for the kids was well set out and had a lot of amenities such as iron and hairdryer and a bath. With windows at different levels so the kids could see out over the Park.

Excellent location for visiting Yorkshire Wildlife Park. There are many great amenities on the doorstep (restaurants, coffee, ice cream, shops, kids’ play facilities etc) and parking is free. Breakfast is pleasant with a suitable variety. All staff were so friendly and helpful! Check in was a breeze and restaurant staff couldn’t do enough. The cleanliness across the hotel, restaurant and Hive area was excellent. The communal ‘watering hole’ on each landing in the hotel was handy for use of microwave and cutlery (disposable). The only downside for us was that we opted for a park view room and were facing a gravel path, an assembly point and empty field. With enough peering, the maned wolves were visible early on a morning. Slightly disappointing compared to what I imagine the view is from other rooms. All in all, a lovely stay and we would return.
