Atura Blacktown
Modern hotel with a pool near Sydney Zoo
About this stay
The modern lobby restaurant and outdoor pool give this property a more contemporary feel than the pub stays and motels nearby, and the exercise room suits anyone keeping up a routine on a longer trip. Sydney Zoo sits a short taxi away, making this a workable base for families pairing a road-trip stop with a full day of wildlife viewing. The airport shuttle covers travellers flying in or out of Sydney without needing their own transfer, and free parking and breakfast keep the practical side simple. It positions itself a step up from a standard motel without becoming a full resort, useful for couples and families wanting a slightly more polished overnight.

Our take
Atura Blacktown is a practical choice for families and travellers heading to Raging Waters Sydney or Featherdale Wildlife Park, especially with a car. A kitchenette in every room is a real plus for self-catering, the garden or pool views are pleasant, and the swimming pool, bar and restaurant cover the evening. An 8.3 from almost 1,500 guests suggests a dependable stay. It is in Prospect, not in a busy city centre, so anyone wanting nightlife on the doorstep may prefer another area.
- ✓Book Sydney Zoo as a full-day activity if travelling with kids, it pairs well with this base.
- ✓Use the airport shuttle if flying rather than driving the last leg into Sydney.
- ✓Swim in the outdoor pool in the late afternoon after a day at the zoo or on the road.
