Why we recommend it
Dorsett Gold Coast is a 313-room hotel on The Darling Avenue in Broadbeach, part of The Star Gold Coast entertainment and leisure precinct. Guests can walk through to The Star complex in about two minutes using internal access, which puts its restaurants, bars and entertainment within easy reach without stepping outside. The Star complex opened in 1985 as Conrad Jupiters, the Gold Coast's casino resort, and today combines several hotels with restaurants, bars and a theatre.
Rooms are arranged in clear tiers. Standard King rooms are the entry point, Deluxe King and Twin rooms add corner and panoramic versions, and Executive rooms on the higher categories include access to the Executive Lounge on level 19. Accessible rooms are available in both the Standard and Executive categories, and connecting rooms are available for families or groups travelling together, so it is worth choosing carefully when booking.
On the leisure side, the Isoletto Pool Club is the hotel's pool area, and Azure Spa and Fitness provides treatments and a gym. Jin Cafe and Bar on level 1 operates as a cafe in the morning and a cocktail bar in the evening. In-room dining includes pick-up from participating restaurants at The Star, and a delivery service called Dorsett Dash, which is useful if you would rather eat in after a day at the beach or a theme park.
The hotel suits couples, families and groups who want a central Broadbeach base with good access to dining. Among the restaurants the hotel highlights nearby at The Star are Kiyomi, the Japanese restaurant led by chef Chase Kojima, Nineteen at The Star and the Roosevelt Lounge, and an outlet of Elk Espresso is also close by. That makes the Dorsett a sensible choice if you plan a special dinner at Kiyomi or a show at the complex and want only a short walk back to bed afterwards.
Kurrawa Beach is about five minutes away on foot and the nearest G:link light rail stop is around eight minutes' walk, giving easy access to Surfers Paradise and Southport. Gold Coast Airport at Coolangatta is about a 30-minute drive. Reservations and enquiries can be made through the hotel's website, by phone or by email to the reception address published there.
