This was a fabulous place to stay for 2 nights before my cruise. Rooms were comfortable and clean. Service was excellent and friendly. The breakfast was included and it was great! Highly recommend this place if you’re in Southampton!
The location is fantastic. The rooms are very clean and comfortable with all the amenities. The breakfast and dinner menus provided excellent options and the foods was delicious. Great selection of beers on tap, too. The restaurant staff and hotel staff were all extremely attentive and friendly. If we get the chance to return to Southampton, we will definitely stay at The White Star.
Note: the hotel is at the corner of a hopping night spot on weekends. It can get noisy.
What a find! Loved this place from the moment we clapped eyes on it. Positioned right at the entry to restaurant row Oxford Street, the theme is definitely in keeping with the mammoth impact and relevance of the Titanic to Southampton but without any cringey cheesyness that one might fear in a themed setting. Lovely staff are welcoming and helpful, room utterly delightful, and the breakfast was truly THE best we’ve had at any stay in the UK. Thank you for having us (at such short notice!).

Small and fun hotel with so much history! It was clean and well kept. The rooms are small but well appointed and has everything you need. Breakfast was fabulous and the staff at the bar couldn’t have been nicer! We will definitely be staying here on our next trip to Southampton

Lovely in room facilities & delicious breakfast. Ease of parking nearby (chargeable) & great selection of local bars & restaurants close too. Ideal for pre/post cruise stay.
Very clean, comfortable, historic hotel. Staff and service second to none. I enjoyed my soak in the roll top bath. It is in a very busy restaurant/nightclub area with music from the neighbouring venues audible until early hours at the weekend but not overly intrusive. We would definitely stay again.
Great location, comfortable rooms with character features relevant to the Titanic plus with all the little details you notice throughout your stay, like bath bombs, fresh milk in the fridge, dental kits etc. Excellent, friendly staff. Would recommend!
Staff is very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was very good.

Our stay was perfect, friendly check in, charming room with crystal clean modern bathroom. We had dinner and it was perfect, reasonably priced and delicious. The included breakfast was far far beyond our expectations. Completely enjoyed our time there.
