MADISON, Ga. — Looking for a hotel room with stunning views for your next getaway? How about a view you’ve never experienced before—an 11-foot, 18-month-old reticulated giraffe right outside your window? That’s the scene from the Giraffe Suite at the Georgia Safari Conservation Park in Madison, Georgia.
“This beautiful suite is housing two different 10-foot pane windows, so one behind me in the living room and then we have one that is overlooking the bedroom location,” Jessica Malloy from the Georgia Safari Conservation Park said. “So, that gives you full access to view to basically spend the night with a giraffe.”
