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.
