This is an older property with lots of character. Located near the downtown area, there are lots of dining choices within walking distance. There could be some work done in the interior to make it more appealing but the room was clean, comfortable and, even though we faced the main street, quiet. Breakfast was quite nice with a very good selection. Staff was very friendly.

All of the staff were pleasant and helpful. The room was clean and a good size. The breakfast was tasty and had a good variety of items in their buffet. The location of the hotel is perfect, being only a block away from Barsgate and central to everything in Southampton. We would definitely stay here agsin!

Hotel was small but our room was great. No AC but not unexpected. Was there on supposedly record setting heat day but there was a fan in the room so wasn't unbearable. In downtown old town so a lot within walking distance. Was there for a cruise and it was walkable to the cruise port (about 1 mile).

Although we were shocked by the poor physical condition of our room (windows that were painted shut, yucky feeling carpet, and extremely low water pressure), the staff did comply with our request for a room on the top floor, which was large, private, and very quiet. Breakfast was excellent.

We came back to The Star as we stayed here 18 months ago. You simply can’t beat their location. Pubs, restaurants, shopping, old Southampton and its heritage building. And the history of the Titanic.
