Some hotels constructed there by celebrity (5-4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

three-star

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'some hotels' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.

'constructed there by celebrity' is the wordplay.
'constructed' indicates anagramming the letters.
'by' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'celebrity' becomes 'star' (a star is a celebrity or famous person).
'there' with letters rearranged gives 'three'.
'three'+'star'='THREE-STAR'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for three-star that I've seen is " Mid-range".)
