A tech room isn’t much to look at considering it was nearly &300 for the nugjt. The view from as half blocked with the biggest tree Still cute The pool is small for the amount of grounds they have and you have to book we couldn’t get in the following day which was annoying. I’m assuming the more expensive rooms would be better but I do think it doesn’t need to be that expensive for a room period .

Used as accommodation for visiting Wimbledon. Very convenient with the station less then 15 minutes walk and trains direct to Wimbledon in another 15. Clean, well-themed hotel for youngsters. Excellent view from room into part of the zoo. Nice pool and breakfast buffet.

Great theming, chaotic communication ruined magic

We stayed 10–11 July 2025. The hotel is beautifully themed, and some staff were lovely—but poor communication and mismanagement really affected our experience. I pre-arranged a children’s Safari Pack by phone and email, confirmed again at check-in, and paid—only for it not to appear. After being told twice it would be in the room, I had to return to reception and re-explain everything. The evening team acted like I imagined the whole thing. I had to show proof and pay again before the pack was finally delivered late in the day. The pool was fully booked by the time we found out (no warning in the Hotels.com confirmation). One staff member blamed us, but another kindly let us in later. The Gruffalo ride was also down most of the day without updates, and the Pizza & Pasta restaurant in the park was closed to all but VIPs—no signage, just turned away at the door. Some staff were outstanding, others dismissive. We expected better for the price.

Ok visit to chessington.

We enjoyed our stay, but our room you could not see out of. There was stickers over the windows. It was disappointing we could not see the animals at all from our room. We could not move either as the hotel we were told was full. But we did not be relieve this as one of the restaurants did not open the whole time we were there. So everyone had to eat at the more expensive restaurant. The buffet restaurant never opened. we did enjoy breakfast as this was included in the price. It was nice you could walk around a little area after the park closed just for hotel guests. We also had a problem was paying for our meal s their machine was playing up so we ended up paying for it three times. We had to get this money back the following day. All very stressful. I also thought the park could have stayed open later than 5 pm.

Amazing safari view

The staff were brilliant, the room was lovely and clean and the Safari view from the room was unbelievable. We had the best time and even extended our stay. In the evenings hotel guests have access to up close walking around the Safari animals which was amazing.

Lovely hotel, and handy if you are visiting the world of adventures, or local area. Unfortunately, let down by the girl managing the check-in desk at check in, the lady managing the restaurant desk for breakfast and the fact that the staff don't care about issues raised about people shouting and banging about in the hallways at night
