Overview

The Star Grand Hotel is one of the places to stay at The Star Sydney, the casino and entertainment complex at 80 Pyrmont Street in Pyrmont. The official site lists the hotel as contained in The Star Sydney and gives it the same street address as the complex. The operator, The Star Entertainment Group, describes The Star Sydney as an all-in-one destination, with accommodation, dining, a casino and live shows on one property, and says its casino operates 24 hours a day. The other stays in the complex are The Star Grand Residences and The Darling. Destination NSW places The Star on the Sydney Harbour foreshore, moments from Darling Harbour and the central business district.1, 2, 3, 13

  • The hotel is part of The Star Sydney, so the casino is in the same complex and at the same address.1, 2

  • The Sydney Lyric Theatre and The Star Event Centre are also part of The Star.13

  • The operator counts more than 20 dining venues across The Star and its partner operators.3

  • The Star has its own light rail stop, on the line from Central Station and Chinatown.14

Good to know

  • The casino at The Star Sydney is operating. Its licence has been suspended since 2022 and is held by a manager, whose term was extended in September 2026 until 30 June 2027; this allows the casino to continue operating. The arrangement concerns the casino licence.15
