The Darling at The Star Gold Coast

First of all, I would like to say a big thank you to Manager Dan for taking care of us

If the full score is 100

I think, I will give The darling 120 points...

This is a five star hotel

Because we were visiting clients on the Gold Coast, we chose to drive to the Gold Coast

When we arrived at The Darling to check in, we went to the parking lot first, and The Darling's service was very good.
Help us park the car at the parking lot

And when I finished checking in, I couldn't wait to get to my room on the 16th floor.

As soon as I opened the door to the room, I really felt that the fatigue of the whole day was gone. What a great room this is! ! !

Probably the best room I have ever stayed in since I was born! ! !

The living room, room, bathroom, shower bath, balcony... all have their own space... The room is definitely a 6-star standard!

Beautiful, high-end, exquisite, and beautiful scenery
The most important thing is, it’s super big and comfortable😌

There's also great wine and sparkling drinks in the fridge

The most thoughtful thing is that The Darling prepares water, chocolate, and lip balm for guests by the bedside! !

All toiletries are Jo Loves
Very elegant items

Living in this room makes me feel like I don’t want to go out all day long🤣

I really like it and recommend it to everyone. If you travel to the Gold Coast with your family or friends, you might as well stay at The Darling and let them help you make your trip the best it can be.

Going to the best hotel can definitely make us grow physically, mentally and spiritually, and then we will have more energy after the vacation to work hard for our next vacation and trip💪

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Darling Hotel Gold Coast with the Family in their Stellar Suite. The staff's exceptional service truly stood out, making our experience unforgettable. The room was immaculate, offering a luxurious and comfortable stay. A great view of the ocean from our room. A five-star experience all around. Highly recommend!

Could not reccomend the place enough- my partner organised a surprise proposal here and the staff went well and truly above and beyond to look after us.

We stayed in the spectacular penthouse- the sheer size of the place and the luxuriousness it oozed will never be compared ! I think I could have had a swim in the spa bath ! Spotlessly clean and modern. I also will compliment the beautiful lighting in all bathrooms. Nothing worse than being a female and having horrible poor lighting to get ready in so that was a massive win for me.

While we were at dinner (also amazing at 19) the staff made gorgeous swans and decorated our room for when we would arrive after the proposal ! It was all so well organised.

The concierge also went above and beyond to clear the valet parking area to ensure my man could surprise me with a gift of a car and a proposal. It was all done to an above and beyond standard that I will be incredibly greatful for !

We both had such a good experience we know we won’t be going anywhere else for the bucks/hens and wedding nights 😍

after more than 7 years, it my 4th time here in Gold Coast but my first ever stay at the Darling.
The hotel is situated at the heart of Gold Coast, a few meters away from the water, shopping centers, food district and access to other endless possibilities while you are in Gold Coast.

A friendly staff greeted me as I walked in the hotel. I had the easiest and quickest hotel booking ever! Got the best room deal and had the best view from the balcony.

A luxurious hotel room with a bath tub.. great escape of my normal everyday life. The hotel also has a beautiful pool, one can relax under the sun on their large day bed. High end equipment at the gym. The Darling also has fancy restaurants to budget friendly restaurants in the hotel and casino. A large theater is also within the hotel vicinity, who wants to go out when everything is just a few minutes walk..

I believe this is the best hotel stay ever! The receptionist were so accommodating, requested for extra supplies like shampoo and body wash (hair too long and hotel shampoo wasn’t enough but the staff accommodated my request and deliveries the supplies in less than 20 minutes.

Thank you so much to all the staff here at The Darling. You all made my short holiday so memorable. I have send photos and videos to my sister and friends, we will definitely be back soon.

This is indeed a world class hotel accommodation and service. Something that Gold Coast should be proud of.

The stay and the atmosphere were just fantastic. We just love the special scent that was used. We really enjoyed our stay and don't want to wait to visit again.

We had a wonderful time at The Darling. The rooms are beautiful, we faced the ocean. The maids were on top of everything and doing a wonderful job.

I had the pleasure of staying in the Darling penthouse suite, and I must say it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment I stepped into the suite, I was blown away by the opulence and attention to detail.

The penthouse suite was incredibly spacious, with a separate living area, bedroom, and a private terrace offering breathtaking views of the city skyline. The interior design was tastefully done, combining modern elegance with classic touches. The plush furniture, high-quality linens, and luxurious amenities added to the overall sense of indulgence.

One of the highlights of my stay was the impeccable service provided by the hotel staff. From the moment I checked in, they went above and beyond to ensure my comfort and satisfaction. The concierge was extremely helpful in arranging restaurant reservations and providing recommendations for local attractions. The housekeeping staff maintained the suite impeccably, and the turndown service added a touch of luxury to my evenings.

The penthouse suite also boasted a fully equipped kitchenette, allowing me to prepare light meals and enjoy them in the privacy of my own space. The in-room dining service was prompt and the food was of exceptional quality. I particularly enjoyed

What can I say? If you haven't been there, you should go. Great stay

Just spent 2 nights in the darling celebrating our anniversary. Everything was perfect! The rooms are modern, clean and spacious, the service and facilities are great. The luxury touches like valet, champagne on arrival, complimentary breakfast and complimentary mini bar made our stay very memorable. Will definitely be back.

This hotel is amazing. I'd booked it a while ago for my birthday and we were really looking forward to it. From the moment we pulled up with our car, the valet parking guy took care of our car and luggage. Then when we checked in for our 3 night stay we were upgraded to a Penthouse Suite. This was incredible and really made my day. There was also a bottle of bubbles waiting on ice. A huge thank you to everyone who made this possible. We had the best time in sheer luxury.

This is our fav place on the Goldy .to staying over & enjoying all things Food choices & Roulette tables .

What an incredible experience! They have spared no expense to make this one of the most beautiful properties we have ever stayed at. The staff are fantastic. Very knowledgeable and the whole team seem to be in hospitality for the right reasons! They want your stay to be memorable and go above and beyond to ensure this. I probably would have spent more time in the gaming areas but our toilet had a Bidet! Kinda fun If you’ve never used one. Big Love to the whole team at the Darling and Star.

Impossible to fault, absolutely luxurious rooms. One very minor issue was the TV program description when changing channels was different to what was showing, probably due to daylight saving time.

High end location on the coast - a comprehensive entertainment precinct with more on offer than Jupiter's had before it. A fantastic array of dining options is a very impressive addition and makes the Darling a must visit on the coast

Wonderful service, accommodation, food and drinks. We stayed in an ocean view suite for two nights celebrating our Wedding Anniversary which was lovely. Spotlessly clean, ZIP tap, coffee machine, comfortable bedding and very spacious.

Our lovely waitress Rachael, at Nineteen roof top bar was just amazing. Your cheerful disposition and pleasant manner was very refreshing. Definitely recommend the accommodation, rooftop bar and service 👌

Great rooms. Penthouse was nice and spacious. The breakfast at nineteen was great

The Darling is the place to be. As newlyweds, my husband and I arrived on Monday for our first part of the honeymoon; 2 nights (child free) in an executive King Suite. As you arrive, the Valet take your car and luggage, and the reception/lobby is beautiful to look at. Upon check-in, we went to our room and were amazed to see that we had been upgraded; to the Spa Penthouse!! 180 degree views, automatic blinds, a giant spa, Bluetooth speakers (Bose) throughout the ceiling, a bidet (there is a first time for everything) and amazing furnishings. We still can't believe how generous the staff were, with such a large upgrade and complimentary Chandon. We lived in heaven for 2 nights, with only positive experiences all round. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Love the nightclubs and general atmosphere, fantastic experiences.

Kids and I booked into the most beautiful Deluxe Billiards Penthouse suite for a well deserved holiday. It was absolutely fabulous! Love coming to The Darling 😊
Our check-in was as always greeted by the warmest of reception a special mention to Shanelle. She's such a star! Had our Penthouse ready and waiting for us to enjoy well before check-in. Got into our suite at 11.30am! So had lots more time to enjoy our luxurious suite!😊❤
In room dining was absolutely fantastic, couldn't fault the food! Kids and I had a blast playing pool in our very own Penthouse and enjoyed every minute of it.
The beds and Pillows are to die for! Best sleep during our 5 day break!
If you're looking for a little bit of grandeur and luxury then the Deluxe Billiards Penthouse suite is perfect!
Can't wait for the next holiday! Thank you Darling. See you again soon!❤😊

We had booked a King Suite at The Star, on the morning of our stay they called to say we had been moved to a suite at the Darling. We checked in and were directed to our room on level 16. We opened the door to find the most amazing suite. It turned out to be one of the penthouse suites. Two nights there was just incredible. Staff were lovely and the breakfast at 19 was amazing. It was certainly an amazing experience. Thanks for making my husbands 40th one to remember
