It reminded me of my ancestral family home in Switzerland! The living spaces were lovely.
On the beautiful seafront of St Mary’s island, The Atlantic offers bright, individually decorated rooms and fresh, seasonal food.

Beautiful building, rooms, restaurant. Staff was very helpful especially with inter-island boat transfers.

We made the trip to go on the Pelagic Cruises and some sight-seeing in the Islea of Scilly generally. Plenty of eateries in Hugh Town - but pretty slow service - gave up on one when told 25mins to wait for lunch order. Didn't look round Hugh Town particularly as not interested in shopping/beach. Tourist Info pretty good.

Good spot but queuing all the time to get in the coop not good. Shame the Bishop and Wolf is closed. Butchers round the corner was much better! Local boats don’t seem to operate social distancing, packed solid!
It’s a good spot to get anywhere on The Scillies. St. Marys has a lot to offer. Porth Hellick one of our favourites.

Busy harbour with easy to access trips to the other islands.
Busy harbour with easy to access trips to the other islands. The town is small with narrow pavements but limited traffic. The Garrison was well worth a walk. It had lots of useful information boards and the views out to sea were worth the walk up the hill. There are a few small shops and restaurants/cafes. There are several pleasant beaches within walking distance. We ate dinner at the Mermaid just off the harbour. The food was excellent and the staff were lovely.

Very friendly locals. Good food everywhere. Lots of activity to just sit and people watch. Laid back. Everyone (including tourists) acting as humans talking and laughing rather than slaves to their mobile phones.

Go to the Kavorna for friendly helpful staff great food at good prices and pet friendly. Buy a pasty and find great views and beaches to enjoy it. Mermaid and Atlantic are friendly pubs for variety of drinks with great atmosphere and dog friendly. Then walk or bike to Old town for beach, history in churchyard, cream tea or pint in pub.
There is a wonderful Artist studio in silver street, meet Steve Sherris the brilliant artist and his lovely partner Alison who put their heart, soul and love into these outstanding pictures of Scilly.
We found Bondy cafe NOT very friendly. But Oldtown cafe on beach much better. Oh there is also a great Gin school down the road!!!!

For us, Hugh Town was the best place on the Scillies to stay. There were plenty of places to eat and drink and there were a few shops; we didn't want or expect any more than that. It is the hub of the Scillies and where the boats sail to the other islands from. We enjoyed our visits to the other islands, particularly the Eastern Isles to see the seals and dolphins. Some of the restaurants have a sea view and generally the food and service are very good.
The room was a good size and clean. Breakfast was served at table; the system being that toast, cereal and tea/coffee were brought in the first instance and once the staff identified that the cereal was consumed they then came to take an order for any cooked items. This was unusual for us but seemed to work well.
Reception staff were friendly and helpful.
Dinner was efficiently served but the atmosphere could have been warmer.
The hotel is in easy walking distance of most parts of Hugh Town.
I must say it was a beautiful boutique hotel, especially Peter, working at the front Dess along with his coworker. She was also very friendly and helpful. The dinner was superb Lee the Chef in excellent job. The breakfast was superb as well. Obviously, they have a wonderful staff and the housekeeping also was superb. I would highly recommend this hotel. And the front desk staff, Peter, and the lady both were extremely helpful in getting tickets for the boats and exploring other islands.
The staff in the castle dining room was attentive. Food choices on the menu were extensive. Lots of seafood. Though travelling on my own, I found it easy chat to other guests during mealtimes.
Plenty of sanitisers round the property. Booking of swimming pool ensured covid restrictions were followed. I enjoyed the swims almost every day. Great location for town centre. Fabulous sea views from the hotel. The luggage pickup and drop off service was much appreciated.
The facilities and the site are outstanding - we especially liked the swimming pool! The rooms are bright and clean and serviced daily. Views from the battlements(!) are stunning and the Conservatory restaurant is a beautiful setting - the atmosphere in there is also more relaxed than the main hotel restaurant. Staff are very helpful and there is always a list of the days’ boat sailings to the other islands pinned up by reception. Useful for planning your day.
Our room was a superb base to explore the archipelago from, when we landed it was a short walk from the airport past fields full of the joys and flowers of spring, and was an easy walk into Hugh Town for food and boats to the other islands. Having full cooking facilities made life easier (and cheaper!), and we spent a lot of time happily sat by the front window enjoying the view. One of the most relaxing holidays I have been lucky enough to go on.
Very comfortable room Excellent breakfast and Golden Wedding Anniversary evening meal and thank you for the complimentary glass of wine on our Anniversary. Great evening meal at your sister restaurant The Beach also at Porthmellon Beach just around the corner and great sunset overlooking the harbour on short walk back to St Marys Hall. And thank you to Peter at reception for his help
We were delighted to stay at the Star Castle Hotel - this was a real treat for us and really lived up to (and exceeeded) expectations! The staff couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. The food was excellent - hadn't expected such high quality. The setting and grounds were really magical and memorable. A great holiday and we would love to return.
Breakfast was superb. Staff very friendly and welcoming. Comfortable room. Public areas of hotel excellent. Perfect location. Views of harbour and islands were wonderful. Evening meals delicious. I loved this hotel and would definitely stay here again.
The hotel is a beautiful building set within its own tropical gardens. Our room was huge with its own lounge area and terrace . We couldn't fault the food, both dinner and breakfast were outstanding. The staff were all lovely.
Lovely hotel, nice lounge area with fabulous views, breakfast was very good, comfy beds, staff we very helpful & polite, nice outside seating areas. All areas were spotlessly clean. Only downside no lift to bedrooms.
Amazing hotel, staff are incredible. I've stayed in 5 star hotels that this put to shame. Beautiful location and everything works like clockwork. The restaurant is exceptional and worth several Michelin Stars.
Well appointed rooms, good restaurant, located on the edge of the islands largest village, so quiet at night. Room was a suite and a decent size. Nice small garden area at the front of the hotel for sitting out.
Perfect location just a few steps up from the main street in Hugh Town, St. Mary Island, Scilly. Overlooks the ‘English Caribbean’ with beautiful views of St. Martin, Tresco, Samson and Bryher.
We loved everything! From the staff to the incredible location and views to the exceptional dinners!! What a chef!! Definitely one of the best hotels we stayed in! We will be back!!
