Star City Hotel ReviewThis gambling and entertainment complex has rooms overlooking Darling Harbour and the architecturally interesting Pyrmont Bridge. Although the four split-level Royal Suites are spectacular -- each with three TVs, a giant Jacuzzi, a full kitchen, two bathrooms, its own sauna, and the services of the former butler to the governor of Queensland -- the standard rooms are somewhat small. Executive suites are very nice. If you break the casino, use your winnings to pay for a room with views over Darling Harbour. The excellent Astral restaurant is at the summit of the hotel tower on level 17. Facilities: 4 restaurants; casino; large heated outdoor pool; Jacuzzi; sauna; concierge; free shuttle bus from central business district; business center; shopping arcade; salon; 24-hr. room service; massage; laundry service; 2 theaters; currency exchange Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip. Related Features

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
