“The Star Grand Hotel capitalizes on its unique position within the Star Entertainment Complex, granting easy access to Sydney's attractions and its own casino and theatres; I find the variety of dining options particularly appealing. With resort-style accommodations and views of the skyline, it aims for a premium experience. However, some reported issues, such as room maintenance and service inconsistencies, suggest that travelers carefully weigh expectations.”
