The Star Brisbane has peeled back the curtain on its hotel and entertainment offering ahead of a staged opening from April 2024.
The Star Brisbane forms part of the AU$3.6 billion Queen’s Wharf Brisbane precinct, featuring more than 50 new venues including four luxury hotels, an array of restaurants and bars, entertainment and luxury retail.
The hotel offerings will include The Star’s signature luxury five-star resort, The Star Grand.
Featuring 340 guest rooms across two arc-shaped towers overlooking the Brisbane River, The Star Grand will offer exquisite finishes and bespoke touches, with an oversized freestanding bathtub in each of the four Skyline Penthouse Suites.
A 12,000sqm open-air Leisure Deck will offer guest exclusive access to three pools, while the hotel’s 250m rooftop Sky Deck features a collection of restaurants and bars.
“We are incredibly excited to be able to share a first look inside The Star Brisbane – the entertainment hub of the Queen’s Wharf Brisbane precinct which will transform Brisbane as we know it,” said The Star Brisbane Chief Operating Officer, Kelvin Dodt.
“From a selection of Brisbane’s grandest hotels to delectable dining, spectacular sky-high views, and unique experiences for locals and tourists alike, The Star Brisbane promises to celebrate the best of our river city.”
Celebrity chef Luke Nguyen – who has enjoyed a decade-long partnership with The Star across its Brisbane and Sydney resorts – is amongst the top chefs confirmed to headline The Star Brisbane.
He will bring a reimagined experience of his popular South-East Asia food restaurant Fat Noodle.
“Brisbane is on the precipice of being the next foodie capital of Australia; the food offerings, the art and culture, and tourism is growing, and the city is making a name for itself in its own right,” Nguyen said.
“There’s an undeniable buzz about town that is only going to be supercharged by the opening of The Star Brisbane next year.”
The Star Brisbane is also home to a 732sqm Sports Bar – endorsed by the Brisbane Broncos – with over 100sqm of mega LED screens and surround sound, plus three exclusive VIP booths.
The Star’s signature cocktail bar Cherry – a feature of The Star’s Sydney and Gold Coast venues – will also join the precinct, offering a 360-degree bar, while Food Quarter café will offer fresh food and fast service day and night.
The Star Brisbane’s state-of-the-art Event Centre is anchored by Brisbane’s largest hotel ballroom, which has the capacity to cater for up to 2,000 guests.
