    5 Stars STAR CITY CASINO: Sydney's Dazzling Gem 22/03/2007

    Advantages Advantages A Great Night Out For a Meal, Theatre Production and Casino Spending!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages SPEND SPEND SPEND. Prepare to Use Lots of Money

    When i looked at the previous reviews for this I was astonished not only to find one review, but the fact it wasn't even about this casino! I felt compiled to write a review and give Star City Casino of Australia the proper review that it deserves. During my travels around Australia i spent a month in Sydney (please see my other reviews about Sydney) and was amazed by the diversity of the attractions available. Star City Casino is one of the most extravagant, luxurious and star quality attractions that Sydney has to offer, whether you are a backpacker, on a hen or stag night or there on an ... more

    This review for Ciao describes my stay (during August 2008) at the glittering Star City Casino Hotel, located in Pyrmont, an inner city suburb of Sydney Australia. Previous reviews of this hotel have only really described the casino area, but you can have a great time staying here even if you aren't into gambling, because there's lots of places to eat and things to see and do. Also I took a few photos at the hotel, and readers may be interested in these. Good points were as follows. Excellent proximity to the downtown area. It was easy to get to most of Sydney's attractions from here. For ... more

    2 Stars Star City a bit of a disappointment 13/11/2007
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Looks nice, has a theatre

    Disadvantages Disadvantages No decent machines and crowded

    To be honest, I found the Star City Casino in Sydney a bit of a disappointment. We went to Vegas a couple of years ago so I was getting ready to try my luck with video blackjack (my forté or weakness - however you see it!) When we got there, the place is impressive, lots of flashy lights and water fountains etc. but the casino itself was simply filled with row upon row of the same one-armed bandit-type machines which only the asians appeared to be able to understand. I did have a go, but as many times as I read the rules it made no sense. The tables were crowded and the drinks were expensive ... more

    4 Stars Vegas Experience 28/12/2003
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Out of Town, nice surroundings

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Useless bar staff, expensive drinks.

    I HAVE ASKED CIAO TO MOVE THIS TO THE CORRECT LOCATION, BUT NO ACTION HAS BEEN TAKEN. The Star City Casino or, the Vegas Experience as it is billed, is in a suburb of Birmingham so nice and easy to get too without battling through the city centre. It within a leisure complex, which also has host of other bars and restaurants. Parking is plentiful and there is even a courtesy parking service, at a charge and a place where you can order a taxi. The casino it’s self is set over several floors. The first floor being slots and is open 24 hours a day. There is a sort of mezzanine floor, which is ... more
