What actually happens inside a VIP gaming salon
The elevators with the separate key access, the quiet rooms upstairs — here's what's behind them, who they're for, and when the main floor is honestly better.
Above The Star's main floor sit the private salons — members-only rooms where the limits climb and the noise drops. Most guests walk past the separate lift bank for years without knowing what's up there.
What a salon actually is
A smaller, quieter gaming room with dedicated dealers, higher table limits, complimentary dining and drinks service, and hosts whose entire job is knowing your name. Think business-class lounge versus departure hall — same destination, different everything.
How access works
There's no public price list — access is arranged through host relationships and matched to your level of play. This is what our VIP gaming service does: the introduction, the honest read on whether your level justifies it, and the host pairing.
Honest math
Minimums in salons run higher — but midweek they're often lower than Friday-night main-floor tables at the premium pits. If you're a regular punter playing modest stakes, the main floor on a Tuesday is genuinely the better product, and we'll say so.
The limits conversation
Every VIP arrangement we make includes setting deposit and session limits before arrival. Good hosts respect this — they want clients who come back for years, not once. Gambling Help Online (1800 858 858) is in every package we send. It's 18+ territory, always.
