MAKE IT YOUR STAY

The shape of a visit.

Explore Pyrmont on foot and plan a separate harbour outing. Ask the hotel about the best route for your mobility needs rather than relying only on map distance.

One detail to check.

The Darling and The Star Grand are different hotels. Confirm the property name and room type before you pay.

Before you reserve.

Compare the full price for your dates in Australian dollars. Check cancellation deadlines, any incidental bond and which facilities are included in your specific room rate. Ask the property directly about accessibility, room configuration and current works.

The casino connection.

This is accommodation in a casino resort or precinct. A hotel reservation does not guarantee casino admission. Adults aged 18 and over must satisfy the venue’s identification and other entry requirements. A hotel break can be planned entirely around accommodation, dining and the destination.

18+

A good trip has its limits.

Casino areas are for adults aged 18 and over. Gambling can cause harm. You can enjoy a hotel without gambling.
