We stayed for 2 nights at the Star. From the outside, it looks dated, but we loved the olde worlde interior, jam-packed with character and history, creaky floorboards and all! The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, room was really really cosy, just loved it!! Having stayed here, I personally, wouldnt want to go anywhere else. More

Reviewed with the price and star rating in mind. I enjoyed my stay here. Its a very interesting place - with lots of hints to former glories. The layout is very different to the soulless chain hotels found all over theplace these days. Staff were helpful. The hotel needs work - lots of it. But its got real character. Great... More

Stated only for pone night but found the staff friendly, the city interesting, the hotel very inexpensive, It's location is reasonably close to rail and train stations. about 700metres. 15 to 20 mins. Downhill generally from stations. Journey very much like roller coaster ride with many changes from uphilll to downhill. Also it's very central for all local amenities. and... More

The window frame in our room was falling apart and had not seen a coat of paint in years.The view from here was a white brick wall with a roof littered with cigarette ends. Hot water to the... More

Stayed at the Star Hotel in Southampton (my home town that was) in September 2011 Its in a good location for town and getting about but it is old and really does need some attention! Our room was a bit shabby but big and twin beds, which were comfortable. Old furniture etc. The batheroom was ok, but I nearly slipped... More

We booked a room here as part of a trip organised by Holiday Extras to Peppa Pig World. When we turned up we were greeted with the cramped car park and the dated reception. It was with some trepidation that we made our way to the room. When we reached it via a smelly corridor, I was struck just how... More

Stayed at the Star on Friday 28th October 2011 Room 22. Booked a twin room and were pleasantly surprised to find 2 double beds. The room was spacious and the bathroom had separate bath and shower. Overall condition of the room was very good / clean. The hotel generally looks dated. The staff were very helpful and friendly at all... More
