So they spent a motza on redesign but it still feels the same, the VIP bar seems half done and is too open to the tables. he whole place is depressing and really only for serious gamblers. More

They are so far out of touch with what makes a good international casino that I almost felt sorry for them. More

The Star (as it is now called) is a million times better than prior to the refurb. Well worth a visit, and much more in line with a real international casino. The gaming floor is grand, there are also plenty of food and drink options. The shopping underneath is expensive offering all of the top brands. Friday and Saturday evenings... More

It doesn't matter what they do to this place, it still reminds me of a shopping plaza. Nothing refined about it - concessional shops, crappy food (except the fine dining restaurant), plenty of yobo's hanging around to make one feel apprehensive & not family friendly. More

Star City casino is looking bigger and better since its expansion. Like the Crown in Melbourne, it has varied eateries and quiet bars dotted throughout the complex and well as satellite restaurants and expensive clothing/bag stores. Inside the largesse casino the temperature is moderate and there are no clocks, so you could be fooled into thinking it is day when... More

Went there in February to see what the refurbishment was like.Well was unimpressed and as a poker player,just dont bother.Still not sure if it was a poker room passing itself off a corridor or a corridor passing itself off as a poker room.Plus a $5 p/hr time charge and 10% rake per hand is a bit much.Save yourself the trouble...
