The food was decent and the a Conservatory dining room with live grape vines was lovely. The staff was friendly and accommodating.

Wonderful hotel in superb location with friendly and attentive staff and efficient service that unobtrusively exceeds expectations. Pick up from airport and baggage transfer to ferry on departure all part of the service.

Staff went out of their way to be helpful. The family room was spacious and well-equipped. The swimming pool was great for the children.

Location outstanding, beautiful character building and very comfy beds and room. Pool excellent

Perfect for me. Private separate room where I could leave my dog when I went for meals or a trip to the shops. Nothing too much trouble. Food excellent . I don't think the location can be beaten. You can relax or you can walk miles or go on boats to other islands. Everyone very friendly and very dog friendly.

History combined with character and comfort- what’s not to love?!

The staff, the beautiful sea views, the room, the food - all absolutely 10/10! Every single member of staff at the Star Castle are welcoming and incredibly friendly and helpful. The restaurant food is out of this world, and you can choose to eat in the conservatory or in the main restaurant inside the castle itself. We also love the Dungeon Bar, which is open most of the day and into the evening - drinks prices in there were reasonable too. Sarah was very helpful in booking the Scillonian travel for us.

Unique property and very special location. Great staff food facilities.

Great room, comfy bed, serviced regularly and kept beautifully clean. Food exceptional

The location is great, the hotel is very comfortable and the staff excellent. In addition the food is memorable.
