Reviews for The Star Event Centre
Rick Gehman
It’s a gorgeous casino which is a shame because it seems like very few people are interested in being here. We visited on a Friday night and there were heaps of empty tables and no “vibe” at all. For those visiting, Australia has some strict gaming rules so every single person needs to sign up for a loyalty card before gambling at all. This process took about 15 minutes. Otherwise, as mentioned, everything looks brand new. Splendid viewing experience with some great restaurants.

We had 4 rooms for 2 nights, could do with improvements in cleaning and dusting - 1 Room not cleaned thoroughly and to their credit they gave us gave us another room We went swimming on windy day but the heated pool and spa were nice and clean However they ran out of pool towels at morning (after breakfast mid morning) swims and was offered a face towels to dry off. I was wondering why they had to wait for the towels to be delivered to them while there were 4 of them in the reception chatting, no empathy or show any attempt to rectify Last day went for late morning swim and desperate to have a bottled water to drink. NO unless you are using the gym no exception! Positives : Cleaning staff were friendly We all have late check out Breakfast was ok Good location

Went here to play some Blackjack having come from another city. You are required to sign up for a Star Casino membership to play any games which is a pain in the rear and the process takes a while. The Blackjack tables were $100 - $200 minimums which is a little excessive. They had cheaper tables of a Blackjack variant called Blackjack Challenge...there are some extra rules that advantage the player but those advantages are completely wiped out by the fact that you lose your wager on a push with the dealer. The majority of tables were for this game for obvious reasons, way higher house edge. Unless you have a lot of money to put on the table for regular Blackjack, I wouldn't bother because Blackjack challenge isn't worth it, house edge is too high. Also didn't like how the dealers at the tables just throw your membership card at you once they swipe it. Placing it down in front of me would be a lot more pleasant than it being tossed at me. Other than that the casino itself was clean, tidy and well laid out.

The staff from the valet parking team, the checkin, and the Harvest welcome team. you are the most friendly and helpful team in any hotels we have been to around the world. the staff is on par with the Sands resort in Singapore. thank you to the amazing team. you made our short stay great. Our room is comfortable and a good size for a couple.

BRING YOUR PASSPORT IF YOU WANT TO GAMBLE. If you are a foreigner, there is a new law for Australia that took effect August 18, 2024 that all foreigners must show a passport to get a membership card, and you must have a membership card to gamble. You can enter the casino and just look around without a passport however. Very nice casino, much better than most you would find in Las Vegas.
