26 High Street, Southampton, SO14 2NA, United Kingdom –

A good location if you want to be in the very centre of town. being able to park onsite was an additional bonus and the ladies on reception were very polite and helpful. We requested a double room and were given a family room which was very spacious.

Anna, United Kingdom

An old coaching Inn. Bedroom was large with a lovely deep bath very central location. Came for the Southampton/watford match and would definitely stay here again.

Justin, United Kingdom

The hotel was in an excellent location for my visit to St Marys Stadium. There are numerous restaurants to suit all tastes well within walking distance. Although on a high street it was very quite in the hotel with no street noise. All in all an excellent place to stay and i will definitely use again when next in southampton.

Richard, United Kingdom

Living on the Isle of Wight, we go on cruises from Southampton, it is nice to get to the mainland the night before so we aren't worrying about any poor weather affecting cross Solent transport. Next to Wetherspoons.

Lovely hotel right in Southampton City centre. Plenty of space In the room. Ordered a twin room but got given a bigger room with 3 single beds. Breakfast was unlimited as well and was really nice.

Luke, United Kingdom

Massively exceeded my expectations - I came with my boyfriend for one night and we were so pleasantly surprised by the comfort, style and cleanliness of the room. Such good value for the price - the bed was so comfy, breakfast was lovely and the staff (especially the breakfast staff!) were really friendly. I would definitely stay again, although it looks a bit dated, we had a really great stay.

Stay in the heart of Southampton – Great location - show map

One of our top picks in Southampton.Situated on the High Street, this grade II listed hotel, a former coaching inn has free Wi-Fi and private parking. The Star Hotel Just 500 yards from West Quay Shopping Centre, Southampton Central Train Station is less than a mile away.

The Star Hotel is in a historical part of Southampton, about 700 yards from Southampton Port, with ferries to the Isle of Wight and cruise ship terminals.

Bedrooms have a TV, telephone, and tea and coffee-making facilities. They also have a historical connection, as the Royal Family visited in the 1800s. Most rooms are en suite, and some have a four-poster bed.

Guests can relax in the Lounge Bar, which offers a selection of cocktails and wines. There is a 24-hour front desk, and a range of function rooms available.

“Adequate if you just want a central location with no frills”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Standard Double or Twin Room
- • Stayed 1 night
The shower was pretty dreadful and the bathroom in general was quite tired. We opted to have breakfast but I wouldn't again as the food quality was not of a sufficiently high standard and quite overcooked and dry. We were told we couldn't sit in a particular seat by a not very friendly member of staff, and when an American gentleman asked for the kippers which were advertised on the menu he was told there weren't any. We didn't linger over breakfast!

Room very noisy with people smoking outside and trying to peer through the window. Paid for parking for the stay but if you moved your car the space was likely to be resold on your return. Did not seem to be any control over parking as long as you found a space and paid

Its very basic, the photos didn't reflect the reality of the room. It didn't feel nice at all. I didn't even use the shower or have a drink which I've never done in a hotel before. I was very disappointed.
The breakfast was good, the restaurant staff were helpful. The night porter was polite and helpful. The receptionist in the morning was also very helpful.
