We enjoyed 3 great nights before our cruise. All the staff were great. The included breakfast was fabulous! We were able to walk from the bus station to the hotel easily and then on the morning of our cruise it was an easy 10 minute walk to the ship. I would definitely recommend The White Star.

Had a great staff and friendly. Would stay again. Only thing I rated lower is no lift in facility. But staff brought my luggage to my room and down also. Small cozy boutique hotel. Only 16 rooms on 3 stories.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property is centrally, located on a busy bar and restaurant District. That makes the location very attractive to majority of the people. They also worked with us and made it accommodating for us because of the stairs and not having a lift. We would recommend itp to anybody who is looking to come to the city.

Great property. Would stay here again. Historic, quirky (in a good way). The adjacent bars and night clubs however do tend to create an audible vibe late into the evening.

Lovely pub/hotel with a great vibe. Titanic theme. Cosy room. Friendly staff. Huge breakfast with many options. Only negative was that there was no lift so bags were dragged up a couple of flights of stairs. Otherwise…fantastic!

This is a definite “must stay” location in Southampton!! The hotel is right in the heart of bars and restaurants- all in a pedestrian only area. The breakfast is absolutely incredible- your choices include menu and buffet. The dinners are excellent, can’t say enough about the quality. And finally, the staff! Remarkable!! Helpful, pleasant and totally enjoyable. Will definitely recommend!!
