My wife and I stayed for 2 nights for a short midweek break. The welcome at reception was very warm and one of the staff helped us with our luggage. Our rate included dinner, which was excellent. My wife had a steak one night and it was cooked perfectly. The hotel is quaint and has a nostalgic charm to it... More

The location is great, and the old front of the building is beautiful; however, guess what, the rooms are all out the back in a big 1970s 2-storey block that has none of the charm of the old building. I stayed for a weekend, room only, and made the mistake of having breakfast on one occasion; a buffet with cheap,... More

There are no words to express how wonderful the Star is as a wedding venue! Nothing is too much trouble and everything is done willingly and with a smile. My husband and I married here 20th April and we couldn't have asked for more. We simply had the best day ever! The food was amazing; lots of guests commented on... More

The front of house is old and looks the part. the hotel area is quite new but is in need of a little TLC. given the price I would have expected the furnishings to have been of a better quality though they were adequate. It was a shame that the bin in the bathroom had not been emptied. Having said... More

Arrived on a Friday evening and felt like we had landed in an episode of faulty towers. The barman started to serve pints of Fosters which we hadn't even asked for. Then became even more confused by trying to find two reserved tables for five, when there was only five in our group. Ordered our packed lunch for a walk... More

Felt like I had been shuffled into Gods waiting room! There really is a fine but definite line between old fashioned cosy and old folks home! Unfortunately the star has blurred the boundary. Tired , shabby, quite depressing and cold rooms in the old part of the hotel. Nursing home "chic " in the "new" part of the hotel. Lack... More

The staff couldn't have been more lovely here, but the hotel is tired, lots of things need fixing in the rooms and updating. The bed was a very small double, strange as the room was very spacious. The bathroom has Hazard stickers all over the place, warning you the water is hot, the bath can get slippy...health and safety gone... More

Stayed midweek with the restaurant shut in preparation for a wedding at the weekend. The food on offer was clearly from a freezer and a very limited choice. Breakfast was as farce, as the restaurant was cordoned off for the wedding and guests had to pick a spot in the lounge or 'library' with paper napkins and table cloths. By... More

On arrival at this hotel we were informated there would be a 2% surcharge if we used a credit card. I spoke to another receptionist the following day and she said that was a mistake and as we had booked before 1st April she would not charge and we should not have been charged. We booked single rooms at this... More
