Frommer's Review

More than 125 years old, this 75-acre zoo is America's second oldest and one of its best. More than one million people visit the museum each year to see more than 500 animal and 3,000 plant species. Favorites include the exotic collection of felines (including some white lions); the creatures of the zoo's 75 acres include elephants, manatees, polar bears, and a children's zoo. New in 2008 were unusual red-crowned cranes and an adorable baby bearcat named Lucy.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
