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.

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.

Decent hotel rooms. Weird place overall. Went for business night stop with no Knowledge of the wildlife park. You have to park a short walk away from the hotel reception building. Fine as was dry but needs cover for if v wet. Then that building is quite disconnected from the room building which is a walk through various other theme park and retail buildings. The connected restaurant is poor. Staff and room itself are lovely. But the menu and quality of food provided for a fairly premium price is really very ordinary.

Room was immaculate, amazing view of the zoo. Fully stocked with tea coffee and hot chocolate and jammy dodgers were a win for my son. Staff are so friendly and helpful… I put a note in my booking comments that this was a surprise from Santa brought by the elf, asked if a note could be put in the room ( did not think it would be read) There was a card from Santa on the bed when we got in the room…Christmas magic

We had a lovely overnight stay at Hex. We had a resort-side room and it was spacious, comfortable and well-equipped. It was so nice to wake up and see the bush-dogs, tapirs and maned wolf from our window! Breakfast is great too, with good veggie and meat choices on the buffet. Staff are friendly and attentive. Overall I think it’s good value and we’d happily come back.
