    I will always recommend The Star, I think it’s worth every penny. Maybe book early so you can save up for it but all in

    Can't relate loved everything

    Absolutely loved my stay, wish it was longer every detail was thought of, water bottles conveniently and generously everywhere, gift of a moisturising lip balm and cream on bedside table, spacious !! , clean , automatic toilet ( self heating; flushing and cleaning) etc ..., staff were very respectful and helpful ..etc , had unfortunately pre-booked most of my stay at Sofitel , due to ICC being across the road , biggest regret; I arrived a day earlier so had to pleasure to discover this stay, the Star hotel should be a 5 star hotel , Sofitel ( allegedly 5 stars ) was absolutely horrible, unhelpful staff, unhelpful rude receptionists and management, rooms are tiny for the price you pay, cleanness was terrible , every detail just horrible huge regret , will be staying at Star hotel next time

    The in room dining breakfast was horrible. We tried buffet last time and were extremely disappointed so we tried in room dining this stay and it was just as bad.

    Great location. Friendly staff. Easy self parking. 2 bed apartments are roomy, and was clean and comfortable.

    Everything was perfect with perhaps a minor exception, although there are many free to air channels on the tv, $19 for a movie was a little rich, so we did not watch movies.

    Very clean, tidy and quiet. The king mattress was perfect as were the pillows. We opted for a package that included breakfast, $50 spending and free parking which made it a fabulous deal. The room was spacious and the wife was able to enjoy the spa bath with a bit of bubbly. Room service was fast. The accomodation was perfect for us as we were catching a show at the Lyric Theatre and there were many restaurants and bars that we made use of in our short stay. We stayed here last year on my birthday as we did this year. This is fast becoming our “city stay” place.

    The stay was too short .

    The Star Grand Hotel was more than expected. The Lady who checked us in gave us a surprise upgrade. It was penthouse worthy and such a great gift especially since it was my wife's birthday. We attended the MJ musical at the Lyric theatre so the location was perfect. Thank you to the Star Grand Hotel for making our stay so memorable.

    Buffet breakfast was a little dismal compared to the rest of the facility… hated the coffee machines and no barista coffee, food was average. Also thought there could be more alcohol choices at the poolside, as well as better glasses (not plastic) when you pay $30 for a glass of wine you expect quality not served in plastic.

    Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, we were pleasantly upgraded a room upon arrival which was absolutely stunning! All staff was lovely, professional and accommodating , the check in protocol was exceptional, felt like royalist arriving. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back!
