Great 5 star property. Just what we needed the night before our flight out of Sydney. Friendly staff, easy check-in. Valet parking was a little high $. Breakfast was mediocre at best.

Very nice hotel and very nice stay. We had the jewel suite for almost two weeks and it was spacious, beautiful and the service staff was excellent. The gym is too small but with the facilities at the star it is absolutely fine. But as I said, great team, great hotel and very well located with the ferry, train and Darling Harbour directly in the neighborhood.

The Darling at The Star is an up-market hotel in a fabulous location, perfect for business and leisure trips. The rooms are spacious, modern and very clean. The short walk across the bridge to the Sydney CBD is enjoyable and there are many great restaurants and bars in close proximity.

I’ve stayed at a number of Sydney hotels over the last 2 years. I went back there because of the experience the first time, and it didn’t fail this time. Great rooms and even better staff. If I’m fortunate enough to be back in Sydney there isn’t a choice where I’ll be staying.
