Port Lympne offers stunning views and the opportunity to experience wildlife up close, which is a major highlight. However, the service left much to be desired, with rude staff interactions being a common theme. The accommodations, while offering unique experiences, are in desperate need of refurbishment which detracted significantly from the overall value for money.

Our stay at Port Lympne was a blend of modern comfort and unique experiences. The treetop suite was exceptional with stunning views and luxury touches, making for a cozy getaway. However, we encountered a noisy wedding that impacted our peaceful experience in the later hours. Overall, it’s a fantastic place for wildlife lovers and families, but you might want to check for events during your stay if serenity is what you seek.

My stay at the hotel offered a mix of wonderful experiences amidst the stunning wildlife reserve. The rich history of the property and the engaging animal tours were definite highlights. However, the service had noticeable inconsistencies, and some aspects of the room could use updates. Overall, it was a memorable trip, but not without its flaws.

My experience at Port Lympne was quite mixed. The setting is absolutely stunning and we had a wonderful time during our animal interactions, but unfortunately, we felt let down by the service, which lacked the personal touch we were hoping for. While the accommodations were comfortable, the dining experience had its ups and downs. Overall, it’s a great place for a unique getaway, but there are areas that could use some improvement.
