Reviews based on Location
My family and I (kids 6,3 and 10 months) had an amazing one week stay at the Dorsett this week. This was our first family holiday as a party of 5 and it has set the bar high! Rooms were spacious, clean and just amazing. The hotel is just walking distance to pacific fair and Broadbeach strip and it is just the perfect location. I have to say our favourite spot was the pool. Thank you Dorsett we hope to see you very soon :)
Rooms are very nice. Location is about as good as it can get. With the casino, pools and restaurants you could happily never leave the Star complex if you wanted. And it's an easy 5-10 min walk to downtown restaurants and the Pacific Fair mall. Highly recommend including the optional buffet breakfast. Also do yourself a favour and sign up to the star card when you arrive. It gives you a 10% discount at most places. Special shout out to Mei Wei dumplings for some of the best casual dining we had. Highly recommend. We'll definitely be coming back!
