There are also two ? Spaces (coming from each direction) next to a construction site. How much is determined by how many times the minigame has been played, as failure causes the grand prize (starting at 10 coins) to go up by 10 coins. Players who land on their face win 10 coins. The ? Space in front of a shop with a dart board at the back allows the player to throw a dart on the dart wheel.

If enough are stolen, the hotel will be downsized and the player who owns the hotel loses a star. The amount stolen is either 30 coins or the amount of coins such that the opponent's investment is one coin above the next highest investment in the hotel, whichever is less. ? Spaces at the front of the board makes a Koopa Troopa in a cab appear and takes players to a space in front of one of the hotels. ? Spaces in front of alleys may cause Bandit to appear (occasionally, nothing happens, especially if a Bandit steal just happened or there are only one-coin or no investments in any hotel) and steal opponents' coins from a random hotel, then gives them to the player (similar to the Bandit Orb from Mario Party 7). When someone lands on a Bowser Space, Bowser comes and takes 10 coins from everyone's investments from a random hotel. Landing on a DK Space makes Donkey Kong arrive in his own cab, and invest twenty or thirty coins in one of the hotels on the player's behalf. Luigi landing on one of the two Lucky Spaces. Hotels can be fully owned (and hence investments blocked) by a total investment of 100 coins from one player into the hotels. On Star Battle Arena, however, because there are three normal hotels, the minimum number of Stars in play is 3 while the maximum is 9.

There is a fixed and limited number of attainable stars on this board: when all hotels are under ownership, the minimum number of Stars in play is 11 while the maximum is 21 (if counting the 3 Star Hotels on the Lucky Space areas). It is impossible for two or more players or teams to invest the same number of coins in any one hotel. However, only the player who has invested the most coins owns the hotel and its Stars. After a hotel has over 20 coins invested, it becomes a 2-Star hotel, and after accumulating 50 coins total, it becomes a 3-Star hotel, the final hotel stage. This is similar to both Koopa's Seaside Soiree from Mario Party 4 and Windmillville from Mario Party 7, except that with more coins invested in a hotel, the more beneficial it is to the player or team. To obtain Stars on this board, players must invest coins in hotels. Koopa Troopas and Goombas are seen sitting comfortably while cars and other vehicles drive by on the city streets. Koopa's Tycoon Town is a board in Mario Party 8.
