It’s always a pleasure staying at The Star. Good facilities and amenities. Great hotel vibe and having its own light rail station is very handy when going around Sydney CBD. Also has plenty of dining options inside the hotel and around the area. I also love that they have a massive parking area and it’s free when you book a room there.

The room was absolutely state of the art. Wireless phone chargers built into the bedside tables. Floor lights and soft lights that turn on when you go to the bathroom at night. Electric drapes. Great technology that was simple to operate. Flawless!

Service was top class, room was perfect and the cleaners were exceptional, down to the little touches of how they left our belongings neatly and phone charger tucked under the pillow for easy access, dining options are excellent, especially black bar and grill. A short walk over the bridge and you have many more bars and restaurants also

Staff was helpful and it was quiet. I didn’t like the checkout procedure. I was unable to enter my room to get my bag because the key card was not functioning properly. We had to wait quite a while to get a manager to open my room.

I couldn’t find anything negative Their service quality is 💫 The staff went above and beyond . The breakfast was so good with a variety of food . So many restaurants around The bay is closed by and the rest of the transport I think is the best location to stay close to the city center.
