9.2/10 Wonderful! (272 reviews)
This is a beautiful boutique hotel in the historic district. There are lots of restaurants nearby. The room was comfortable and luxurious with all the needed amenities. There isn’t much storage in the rooms so it’s better for short stays. My only issue was that the pool was really cold.

Worth it for the giraffe feeding and to see the pandas up close.
5/5 - Excellent
Verified traveler
The zoo was very large and I really liked being able to feed some of the animals, the hippos especially. The animals looked well cared for and I loved the Aquarium. Being a big fan of freshwater fish it was a real treat to see the huge Mekong catfish and the arapaima gigas.
3/5 - Okay

I don’t do Zoos.
