Popped in here for a drink with friends, lovely venue and atmosphere. Great drinks. Very clean. Looking forward to coming back for food.

The room really suffered from condensation for some reason. And there was noise coming from the tavern and nearby bars. Although the room amenities were fine. Shame they adopted the US tipping culture, was honestly confused about "checking" the bill for a round of drinks. The slight look of disgust after I confirmed the bill was correct was the first hint. Then the staff openly gossiping about not tipping confirmed it, even though I tried to explain that I was planning to have dinner there and would sort everything out later. When I realised I wasn't staying and offered a tip to the staff it was so awkward as they were pretending a tip was an alien concept to them.

Pretty disappointing experience here last night. Ordered a pint of Peroni at £7.50 and straightaway I could see it was flat. No fizz whatsoever. I expressed my concern to the barman but he insisted it wasn't and if I had any issues I could return. To no surprise, before he had even finished pouring the next orders drinks, the head had vanished and the pint was dead. I asked for a replacement but the barman still insisted it was fine. Luckily another barman came by and agreed with me but I still found it very annoying I had to almost get into an argument to get a replacement pint for what was a very poor pint. I then watched several of our party get served dead/flat beers at high prices. Sorry won't be back.

We decided to visit the tavern to sample the new Prix Fixe menu. We received a warm greeting and our reserved table was ready for us. Pleasant interiors in this tavern and a good ambience. The menu, naturally, is small but most tastes should be satisfied. Service was friendly throughout. We did wait quite a long time for our main courses to arrive, doubtless as we were there at a busy time. Overall the food was very good, one small observation was that the chicken (with risotto) was quite dry. We felt the prix fixe menu was good value for money. It would have been good to see a ‘House wine’ on the menu at a lower price than those on offer (which were good wines). We enjoyed the evening and would certainly return. Next time we will hope not to sit by the window as it was rather draughty and cool, not unusual with old buildings and no means of double glazing!

Loved the place. Loved the staff. Loved the food. Historical building (Titanic). Walking distance from our port. Stayed 3day and 3 nights. We walked everywhere and checked out many of the places recommended by our host. Took a nice train ride over to Salisbury, and saw the famous stone henge. Loved the museum in Southampton, went for the Titanic exhibit but loved the local history too. The area around This White Star is vibrant and fun especially on the weekends. Would recommend

Can I give 10 stars???? THE HOTEL TO STAY AT IF YOU ARE CRUISING OUT OF SOUTHAMPTON! Great hotel, restaurant and pub. Attentive and helpful service staff! The building has history and well worth a stay. The rooms are the perfect size, clean and quiet. Great water pressure and temperature in the shower. An absolute great hotel. The bar is the hot spot at night. I wish we were here for another night.

From the moment we arrived Bridget and the team were so accomodating, nothing was too much trouble. We had disembarked a cruise early, even though well before check in, they allowed us to store our bags and provided a coffee to start the day. We ate at the restaurant each night food was fantastic, staff friendly and as we also had breakfast included Jack was fantastic taking care of us each morning. This is definitely the go to if you are in Southampton! Our room was very comfortable and stylish.

The room was the top floor I struggled to get up there I would say with my experience the room didn't justify the cost we paid for a big room and to be honest it wasn't the best due to the location on the top floor I asked for a refund however I think that a young person may like the location

My husband and I are just finishing up a 2 night stay at the White Star. We were in room #1. We had dinner at the restaurant our first night and breakfast both mornings. Pro’s: Beautiful area. Close to the waterfront. Walking distance to the cruise berth. Walking distance to other area historical sites. Delicious food. Friendly staff. Con’s: Bathroom window will not open. Loud music can be heard from Medbar across the street until 2am. Would we return to the White Star? Yes and no. We would return for breakfast or dinner, but not to stay overnight. We don’t blame White Star for the music at Medbar. It’s just that thumping music until 2am kept us from getting a good nights sleep.

A very disappointing lunch.

Nice place to wait for your cruise ship. It's about a 10 minute taxi ride to Mayflower Cruise terminal but just a little too far to walk comfortably with luggage. Attractions were a bit of a walk to get to from the hotel but not a real problem. The staff was outstanding and were very focused on your needs and always willing to assist. The in-house restaurant puts out good pub food and a great breakfast. The location was central to a large selection of neighboring restaurants with a variety of food styles if you want something different. Unfortunately there's no elevators so you'll have to move your luggage up the stairs yourself; the staff may be able to assist. The rooms are comfortable and clean. I'd recommend this hotel if you're in Southampton to pick up a ship.

So full disclosure, we did not stay in a room. We wandered in, wary travellers looking for a breakfast before we boarded a cruise ship. We arrived at 9:05am. A number of other tables were seated after us and their orders taken before they got to us. At one stage I went over to the waiter and politely advised that when they have a moment, we are ready to order. They rather tersely replied "When I get a second I will come over" and proceeded to do nothing. So we ordered around 9:25. Then the order took another 35 minutes before it arrived. No checking on us, no explanation. And when it arrived, let's just say it wasn't anything spectacular... Watery bland porridge that should not have taken that long to be prepared... I've had better muesli out of a cereal box and in the microwave 😞 To be very clear, at no point did we cause a fuss, were impolite or impatient. Maybe we should have been, as that seemed to get quicker service. Very disappointing. I also overheard a number of other customers commenting on the poor service they had received. I can only hope they also leave a 'real' rating, as if we had seen something like this we would have steered clear. Given it was our only day and meal in Southampton, we had hoped for better.

Stayed here for only one night before a cruise and would definitely return next time in Southampton. The staff is so friendly and welcoming, the rooms were beautiful, and the food was delicious. The location is superb for a walk around the old city sightseeing and also close to the cruise terminal. We met a gentleman in the tavern that grew up in the town during WWII and told us some amazing and interesting facts about the town and buildings.

I visited with a friend for lunch on a Tuesday. The prices seemed high to me. £29.95 for the pan-fried duck breast. 18.50 for haddock and chips 9although that almost rates as 'normal' nowadays. I chose two starters at £8.50 each, and it turned out to be a good decision. The 'Gambas al ajillo, cooked in white wine & marinated with chilli, garlic and parsley' were decent sized peeled prawns in a good sauce. The 'Feta mousse & watermelon served with pickled cucumber, beetroot crisps & basil oil' was a good combination, and rather inventive. My friend enjoyed his haddock and chips. The dining area is more that of a pub rather than a restarant, but none the worse for that.

Great place to stop for a short stay in Southampton. It is excellent value for money. The White Star Tavern is a vibrant pub in the heart of the lively Oxford Street part of town which offers great restaurant options for the evening. The pub can get quite busy at peak times especially if it a home match for Southampton FC, but step through the guests door and you're met with a very well appointed small hotel section. The rooms are comfortable, well appointed and thoughtfully equipped with excellent attention to detail to ensure your stay is comfortable. The breakfast in the morning was excellent with a wide range of options including vegetarian and buffet as well as full English. Certainly a place we will come back to and use as a base when visiting people in this part of Southampton. Updated again following a second return trip. Staff are fantastic and again a lovely room setting the backdrop for an excellent short stay in Southampton.

As I entered my room I could hear a continuous flush of the toilet to then find out the push button for the flush was completely jammed. Unable to use the toilet I went back down to reception,thr young lad apologised and gave me a key to another room. As I entered thr room,I took one look at the bed and was horrified at the amount of hairs on it,so I went back in my old room and then used a spoon to try and pull out the the flush button.Thankfully I managed to release the button. I then had a knock on the door from reception and I explained I had fixed the toilet and that I didn't want to go into the new room with hairs all over the bed. The room I stayed in was lacking in cleanliness,I pulled off hairs on the bed,around the base of the toilet was disgusting,hairs on the floor and on walls.Areas of walls showing black mould in the bathroom. Clearly checks arnt been done.The cushions on the beds were stained,I doubt they have been washed. A lack of detail left me with a sleepless night,thankfully I had my sleeping bag in the car which I bought up to the room. Checks need to be made in the rooms,I'm so frustrated how management don't do this daily,it really does puzzle me how hotels can't get the basic cleaning standards done correctly. I gave it a 2 star but really I think I was too generous. I could have took so many more photos but I didn't want to look in any more detail as it would have left me more upset than I was already.

La mayor sorpresa que han hecho fue que su chef Alastair me cantara el feliz cumpleaños. Parecía ser un tipo muy carismático. Y tiene una gran voz.

Decidimos comer aquí ya que todos los demás lugares estaban llenos los miércoles. ! Y debo admitir que quedamos impresionados. En primer lugar, la configuración de Covid fue de primera clase desde que ingresó al pub hasta que se fue. ¡Lo que fue realmente bueno de ver fue la atención a limpiar tanto la mesa como el asiento antes de sentarnos! ! Ahora la comida. . . Desde el principio nos dijeron que se habían quedado sin ciertas verduras, etc. . . Esto, aunque decepcionante, también fue refrescante porque elegimos nuestra comida en consecuencia. La señora tenía bistec y patatas fritas con ensalada, etc. y yo tenía el salmón ennegrecido con patatas trituradas y una ensalada de verano y también me dieron pan de ajo. . . Debo admitir que el salmón estaba perfectamente preparado y fue bien con la ensalada, etc. El bistec estaba preparado al gusto de mis damas y ambos disfrutamos mucho de la comida y las bebidas. Este lugar merece una visita ya que me sentí seguro de que se habían tomado todas las medidas para mantener el lugar limpio.

I visited with my family for a Sunday meal, having booked a table earlier in the day. We had a choice of tables indoors and plumped for a table in a corner. As far as service goes we were asked promptly what we would like to drink, after which the service dropped off.My brother had ordered a coke, having not been told that coke is not an option he was given a pepsi max, which he didn't want. Then when he asked to change the order what may have been an attempt at banter seemed much like being reprimanded for not ordering the drink he wanted in the first place. It took an exceptionally long time for the food to come, my wife and mother both enjoyed the majority of their meals. My steak was over cooked, the peppercorn sauce was sweet and not worth the money. I wasn't asked how the food was until they came to collect the plates. My mother wanted a dessert, which was again sorely disappointing.Many years ago this used to be a great place, but certainly doesn't deserve a revisit.

Big fan of Fullers establishments. The White Star did not disappoint. Nice varied menu and excellent food and service.

Had a family dinner here (no kids). Food was decent, little bit pricey. Service was ok, and atmosphere was nice. Nothing particular special but nothing particular bad either. Only downside, they had run out of the roast beef at 330pm on a Sunday.

No soy un fan de grandes cadenas de hoteles. Aunque la Estrella Blanca está dentro del grupo Fullers, tiene la sensación de ser independiente.

As we were staying here, it was impossible to avoid the charming pub below! The gents tending bar in the evenings were incredibly helpful in every way (from helping access Wifi, to selecting the right cider). I'm very glad we stayed here. PS - if you're staying the night, hang around for breakfast in the morning... you won't be a bit sorry, and the ladies attending on you will make you feel right at home!

During my stay in the hotel i allways eat here at least once. Very good food, and enough beers to taste. Many locals so cozy and pretty

Recomendado por la compañía aérea, fuimos bien recibidos y el servicio fue muy rápido. ¡La comida también es buena por su precio!

Visitado para el desayuno familiar. Lamentablemente no puedo recomendar. El lugar aparentemente era muy escaso y parecía caótico. Media hora para tomar bebidas (café tibio) y más de una hora para desayunar. De nuevo frío, huevos cocidos, panqueques cocidos. Sin embargo, el gerente dio un descuento del 50% en el pedido y se reconoció el servicio y la calidad deficiente, por lo tanto, una revisión de tres estrellas en lugar de una de una estrella.

We are a family of four and enjoyed a meal at the White Star, there is a kids menu with some variety, the adults menu had some nice light bites, service was good.

The overall service was pretty poor. Prosecco poured over the table as rushing to serve it. Came back about every 2 minutes to ask if we're ready to order but one if us didn't even have a menu. Hair in one if the starters- apologies but no deduction off the bill. Main course was really good. Took forever to try to order coffees and pay the bill not enough staff as they ended up serving behind the bar. Not as good as it used to be - such a shame.

In the center of Southampton nightlife. Great lodging and good food. The staff is friendly and helpful- they let us check in early!

Casual atmosphere, simple menu, price acceptable, no more or less than I 'd pay in the States for a similar meal.Walking distance from The Queen Mary 2. Which left us time to wander around the city of Southampton. Would dine there again when we do our next round trip on the Queen.

18 of us met at the White Star for a pre-booked dinner reservation where we selected our entrees in advance. Other than half of us sitting behind the long table which made getting in and out a bit challenging, it was great from being seated timely, receiving the foods we confirmed we ordered, and having great service during the meal. Almost everyone said they enjoyed their entree, and my husband said his fish and chips set the bar for all other F&C; meals for the next three weeks in England, on board our cruise, & in Scotland. My salmon was equally good. Separating checks took a while, but they worked and got it done. We enjoyed a small lounge area for drinks before dinner where we all gathered. The atmosphere of an "old pub" is nice; there is outside dining if desired; it is in a pub/bar section of the downtown area and was nice for walking.

I have eaten in White Star a few times. It used to be my fave place to eat but the food has gone a bit to 'posh' for me. The portions seem to get smaller and smaller. Very good tasty food but last time I was still hungry after dinner
