Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Star Grand Hotel impresses with its stunning decor and spacious rooms, especially the upgraded suites offering Harbour Bridge and Darling Harbour views from the 12th floor. Guests appreciate the proximity to the light rail downstairs and various food options nearby. The rainfall showers are a highlight for many, as is the luxurious comfort of the beds; however, a few guests have mentioned issues with the air conditioning in some rooms. Buffet breakfast with a good selection, and available coffee machines are also appreciated.

The rooms were amazing and very clean. I found the staff very accommodating. access to the city was easy from this location. we were upgraded, so we were very happy with our stay and the valet parking.

this is not a cheap hotel and behaves like one.

I had a $50 daily food and drink credit for selected restaurants. porta cucina provided poor service. that was the only negative aspect in terms of dining. there were multiple options available.

immaculate roomexcellent decorconvenient locationfilthy rugterrible sofaputrid lighting

the room was immaculate. the decor was excellent. dinner and breakfast were in the same location, so i did not need to leave the building (i thought that was convenient). the light rail was just downstairs.

the rug was not just stained, but filthy. the black sofa was in a terrible state with previous guests' residue. the lighting was putrid and covered in dust. saturday morning i spoke with hotel staff regarding the cleanliness. they were horrified at the state of the room.
