The Star Gold Coast

Buchen Sie dieses Hotel, wenn You want a Vegas-style playground with casinos, rooftop bars, and theatres all under one roof, and don't mind a 10-minute walk to the actual beach.

Warum Gäste es lieben

  • Everything is on-site: 6+ restaurants, 24-hour casino, and a theatre
  • Renovated rooms feature high-tech automated curtains and 'cloud-like' bedding
  • Walking distance to Pacific Fair shopping and the Convention Centre

Kurzfassung: A glitzy, high-energy entertainment complex that feels more like a city block than a beach resort.

Bewertet von @Wandering_RenI stayed here for a weekend recharge and the mornings were my favorite part. Just sitting by the window with a coffee, watching the light hit the Gold Coast skyline, felt absolutely magical. It’s the perfect mix of city vibes and total relaxation.


Was Gäste, die hier übernachtet haben, sagten

The hype

Travelers love the comfortable beds and 'one-stop-shop' convenience but consistently complain about the check-in queues and parking costs.

Reality check

The 'resort' feel is dampened by the fact that the pool is sometimes closed and the beach is a trek across a busy highway and footbridge.

  • You are attending a show or conference at the Convention Centre next door
  • You enjoy nightlife, gambling, and fine dining without leaving the property
  • You prefer a modern, high-tech room over a rustic beachy vibe

Sauberkeit & Instandhaltung

8.5
  • Housekeeping: Generally reliable daily service, though high turnover means occasional missed dust in corners.
  • Bathroom hygiene: Renovated bathrooms are sleek and usually spotless; grout issues are rare in the 'Grand' tower.
  • Maintenance: Excellent in renovated rooms; older unrenovated wings (if any remain) show wear.
  • Linens & towels: High-quality, crisp white linens; towels are fluffy and plentiful.
  • Odors & scents: Lobby has a signature scent to mask casino odors; rooms are generally fresh.

I am staying for a special occasion and would appreciate a renovated Executive Deluxe room on a high floor, specifically facing away from the active construction zone to ensure quiet during the day.

FAQ & Geheimtipps

Alles, was Sie vor der Buchung wirklich wissen möchten.

Is the pool open every day?

No. As of mid-2025, the main Star Grand pool has restricted opening times (often closed Mon-Thu). Check the specific schedule for your dates.

How far is the beach?

It is not beachfront. It is a 10-15 minute walk (approx. 800m) crossing the Gold Coast Highway and a footbridge.

Is there free parking?

Only for Gold/Platinum Star Club members. Regular hotel guests pay $20/night for self-parking or $65/day for valet.

Can I smoke in the room?

No, all rooms are strictly non-smoking. There are designated smoking areas downstairs near the casino.

Is breakfast included?

Usually not. The Harvest Buffet breakfast costs approximately $39.90 AUD per adult if not booked in a package.

Is it good for kids?

Not really. There is no kids' club, the pool hours are restrictive, and the environment is adult-focused (casino/bars).


Insider-Tipps

  • Join 'The Star Club' (free) before you arrive; even the base tier might get you discounts on dining or parking perks.

  • The 'Isoletto Pool Club' on Level 6 is sometimes accessible to Residence guests and offers a chillier vibe than the main pool.

  • Skip the hotel breakfast and walk 5 minutes to 'Elk Espresso' or 'No Name Lane' for a far superior Gold Coast brunch.

5 Dinge, die Sie wissen sollten, bevor Sie losfahren

  • 💡The walk to the beach involves crossing a major highway and can be sweltering in summer.

  • 💡The 'Ocean View' rooms often look over the tops of other buildings and the highway before seeing the water.

  • 💡Room service ordering is via QR code and can be slower than just going downstairs to the food court.

  • 💡The elevators require a key card swipe that can be finicky, leading to awkward lobby shuffles.

  • 💡You can hear the bass from the garden parties in lower-level rooms on weekends.
