The staff was lovely when we checked in the room was so clean and neat we were very happy, we had a nice view of the pool area. Only issue was, we were there for 3 nights were given a towel each for the two of us. We went and asked about different towels for the pool area and we were told an extra $5 each towel. So unfortunate why would I pay for a spare towel that should be included. Other than that it was wonderful and definitely would stay again

This stay was profoundly disappointing. The Sovereign Gold Coast clearly prioritises filling rooms over providing a basic, functional, or comfortable guest experience. I will not be returning. The experience started poorly and only got worse: Painful Check-in: The check-in process was frustratingly slow. The staff, while not rude, were unfriendly and entirely indifferent. This set a bad tone immediately. Key Card Failure: As an indicator of the general dysfunction, the key cards did not work initially. Upon reaching my room, I immediately understood why I had overheard another guest complaining that "nothing worked." They were right. Broken Facilities: The spa was not operational, and only one escalator was functional, causing annoying delays and inconvenience. A hotel of this size must keep its essential facilities maintained. Zero Comfort: The sleep quality was terrible. I could distinctly feel the springs in the mattress, proving the bedding is desperately overdue for replacement. Cheap Amenities: In a two-bedroom unit, supplying only one minuscule bar of soap is inexcusably cheap and demonstrates a total lack of concern for the customer. In summary, the Sovereign Gold Coast is focused on maximizing occupancy with zero care for the customer experience. Everything felt neglected. Do not waste your money here.

I booked this hotel for a work conference and unfortunately ended up not staying the night due to how uncomfortable and unsafe I felt. The room I was given was extremely outdated, had a strong musky smell, and the curtains were noticeably dirty. As a young woman travelling alone, I did not feel secure — there were no visible security cameras and the room lacked additional locking mechanisms that would offer peace of mind. I returned to reception about 30 minutes after checking in (and only an hour after booking), to politely request a refund. I explained that I felt unsafe, especially with the large number of men around town for the Supercars weekend. Instead of offering empathy or assistance, the staff member told me to “go for a walk” and suggested I would “feel silly” if I left. He also asked if I was upset because of anxiety, which was unprofessional and dismissive. In the end, I chose to drive home two hours each way for the duration of my conference rather than return. The customer service and overall condition of the accommodation were incredibly disappointing. I cannot recommend this hotel, especially for women traveling alone.

Our room was very clean and spacious. Staff was friendly. The only thing was that we have to wait for check in a bit too long, because we arrive before 12 o’clock so we’re hoping for early check in. Otherwise we were very pleased to stay in Sovereign Gold Coast.

Hi - if we get any surveys about our accommodation at The Star please give it a 0 out of 5 rating… They didn’t service my room even though i pressed the service button in the morning. Out of x 4 nights it was serviced once. they didn’t give any replacements of anything except a soap bar, rubbish bins weren’t emptied… Concierge team were wonderful we wanted a meeting room for 1.5 hours and they wanted to charge $700 which was apparently half price - yet there were no people anywhere near any of the meeting rooms… Frankly never want to stay there again please
