Just returned from 2 nights in a 3 bedroom apartment. Nice view of Darling Harbour alongside cranes & construction. Rooms were clean & well appointed, however had booked for 2 adults & 4 kids but only had 4 towels. Like others, discovered that pool was temporarily unavailable only when we asked to use it.Given the number of comments about this,... More

We booked into Astral for a few days of enjoying our city as tourists and spend time by the pool. Unbeknownst by us, especially because the reservation agent neglected to tell us, the pool is closed and will be for another 2 years. Unfortunately, we were unable to find another room in the city suitable otherwise we would have checked... More

After my last stay I said I would never go back but I thought Id give The Star one more chance. After the disappoint of the last stay I booked into the cheaper of the 2 bedroom apartments going for a Pyrmont view room so I wasn't expecting much this time I just needed a place to stay for one...

Huge room and comfy bed although a little hard for my liking. Pillow menu which is a nice touch. Servicing of the room was a bit shabby, nothing replaced even though it was obvious we had used all the tea (maybe they just didn't check). Stayed 3 nights and ended up leaving little notes around the room e.g please replenish... More

I once again got caught by the Wotif scenario. One should ask wot if the room is not up to scratch WOT DO YOU DO. I paid $1128 for 2 nights on Wotif. Got to the room and I can assure you that it is not a $564 per night deal and no breakfast. I queried this at the desk... More

When I checked in was told I had been upgraded to a 2 bedroom apartment which was a "smoking" apartment, I requested to be given a nonsmoking room in the Hotel, I probably should have mentioned this when checking in.. My room was quiet but I... More

Just finished 3 nights in a " harbour view" should be called " harbour glimpse" through the construction and poles. They won't advise you they are doing a major re-construction, thar includes the pool you can't use. When we approached them at the desk to see if we could make some approach to see what we can do to amend... More

STAY AWAY! Noisy, city View 2 bedroom apartment is now looking straight over a construction site, with work starting at 7am on at Saturday morning after being told that construction had all but finished. Thank God only stayed one night would have been a more peaceful sleep staying at central station, with loud arguments in hallways, levels above throwing empty... More

It was our 1st wedding anniversary and I booked a "Harbour View Room" ($560 per night room only) 3 months in advance. I made particular mention of the special reason we had decided to stay at Star City and that we had dinner reservations. When we were shown to our room we were so disappointed - a small, dark room...
