2 things separate them visually.
First, planets move. You won't see this in one night, but if you watch the object from night to night, you will see that it has moved a short distance each time.
Okay, stars move too - but you would have to watch for thousands of years just to see them move much at all.
Secondly, depending on which planet and how good your telescope is, Planets can be magnified into a circle - you can see breadth. Even the most powerful telescopes only see stars as a bright pinprick of light. That's because they are millions of times further away.
