The Star Sydney
From dumplings to drama, it all unfolds at The Star
A little glitz, a lot of flavour, and more than a few late nights — The Star is where Sydney lets loose. From Hotel Woolstore 1888, it’s an easy 10-minute walk or two stops on the light rail, straight to the edge of Darling Harbour.
Whether you’re heading to the theatre or just following your nose, this multi-level entertainment hub always puts on a show.
Catch a show, or try your luck
The Star isn’t just one of Sydney’s biggest entertainment precincts — it’s a world of its own. From blockbuster musicals at Sydney Lyric Theatre to cabaret, comedy and live music at the more intimate Foundry Theatre, it’s a destination that delivers well beyond curtain call.
If you’re feeling lucky, the sprawling two-level casino brings the energy. And when the night’s still young? Head to Rock Lily for live music and late-night sets, or find your way to one of the hidden cocktail bars where the drinks are as impressive as the fitouts.
Flavours to savour, bars to discover
Dining at The Star is far from an afterthought. Sushi lovers head straight to Sokyo, where precision meets creativity on every plate. For something heartier, Cucina Porto serves up woodfired pizza and handmade pasta with just the right touch of old-world charm.
Craving something quick? Rumble Ramen brings bold flavours and comforting warmth, with a menu curated by Chef Oshi San. Whether it’s the crunch of Tempura Ramen, the richness of Char Siu Pork, or a perfectly crisp Gyoza on the side, every dish hits the spot. Add an ice-cold beer and you’ve got the perfect pre- or post-show pit stop.
Gelato Messina takes care of dessert in the most decadent way, while the casual Food Quarter offers quality bites on the go. And when it’s time for a drink, Jade Rabbit is worth the detour. Part bar, part storybook, it’s a moody, luxurious space inspired by Eastern folklore, with celestial lighting, towering spirit shelves and aquariums to match. It’s the kind of spot you’ll want to linger in – and luckily, it’s just around the corner from your Pymonth base at Hotel Woolstore 1888.
Make a night of it
The Star feels a world away from the city rush, yet it’s just minutes from our heritage hotel. Whether you’re catching a show, enjoying dinner or discovering a hidden bar, it’s the kind of night that comes together easily.
