Disliked: Staff & service
The property itself was fine, it had some character. If you dont mind noise you sleep then youll manage. What turned this into an unpleasant stay was the staffs attitude to tipping. Whilst paying for the first round the staff asked me to "check" the bill. Asking for a tip this way at the bar was new to me and actually suprised me so i just checked the items were correct. Also I thought I was staying for dinner so I didn't tip for the first round, this was met by a slight look of disgust. I went to the bar to get a drink i forgot and the staff were gossiping about tips (coincidence?) When I later realised we weren't staying for dinner I went to tip the staff and they were pretending like tips were an alien concept to them...

The bed was sooo comfortable and cozy. The room and common areas very homey and comfortable. Amenities in our room much appreciated and well thought out. We were easily able to find a meal, felt safe walking in the area. Staff very accommodating. We were able to overcome jet lag and settle in.

Stayed for 2 nights in a Comfy Cabin room over a weekend. I had emailed beforehand, asking for a room with a bath and this was honoured. Room was nice and large-ish for a hotel of this size. The decorations were quaint and thought was definitely put into the wall pictures and decor. Bathroom was great, with large bath and separate shower. Breakfast was great, freshly cooked. Customer service was 5*. Thanks

The staff was wonderful and helpful. We had an early morning flight and they were able to schedule us a taxi that arrived promptly. We loved the room. It was well appointed and we really enjoyed the towel warmer. After traveling all day, it was just the rest we needed.

We loved the rich history of The White Star and how it has been decorated and preserved to reflect that history. Our room was comfortable with every amenity that one might want or need. The location was convenient for walking to the high street and many local attractions. The staff were always friendly and helpful. The only drawback for us was that our room was on the top floor and there were quite a few stairs to get there. Good exercise, but next time we will request a room on a lower floor. We highly recommend The White Star

The greatest part of this hotel besides the amazing staff ( Jake, Zach and Bridget ) was the history of the property, not realizing the name of the property White Star Tavern was associated to the Titanic, Every were in the hotel where pictures and historical facts of the Titanic and the White Star shipping company. The rooms were cosy and quiet even though it’s above a tavern you never heard noise. There’s no lift but it’s like walking up the stairs at home and you leave your luggage downstairs locked in a room and take an overnight bag to your room. We loved the charm and character of the hotel and restaurant. Easy walk to the cruise terminal or a 5 minute cab ride
