Starve, if thrown out of such a hotel (4-4)

I believe the answer is:

five-star

'such a hotel' is the definition.
(five-star is a type of hotel)

'starve if thrown out' is the wordplay.
'thrown out' indicates anagramming the letters.
'starve'+'if'='starveif'
'starveif' is an anagram of 'FIVE-STAR'.

'of' is the link.

(Another definition for five-star that I've seen is " Good quality (accommodation)".)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
