Made my trip

Oh, where do I start? Super polite helpful staff, amazing breakfast, thick fluffy towels, loads of pillows, cloud-like bed, fabulous shower, complimentary beer and water, and real milk in my fridge, gorgeous toiletries, clean comfortable room, v cool bathroom nightlight and good price. Sadly waa too tired to sample the bar and dinner on arrival but the menu looked lovely.

From the moment we arrived the staff made us feel right at home. The rooms were very cozy. My husband is a very tall man but it didn’t feel confined. The bedding and bathroom were very plush and welcoming. We slept like a baby. Breakfast was very good with more choices than most places. Kudos to the staff on making us feel at home!

Local Flavor

People were very helpful and accommodating. We selected this hotel due to its location near the cruise ship port. The hotel is above a bar on a street closed to traffic. There are a variety of restaurants with everything from pizza to fillet moon nearby. This was a perfect place to stay for a few days prior to cruising. Great breakfast provided too!!

Nice atmosphere, because it’s a tavern and bars all around it, it was loud at night with music.

White Star is an excellent small hotel right in the middle of town with lots of options nearby. The rooms are small but extremely comfortable and clean. Free breakfast and amazing lunch and dinner options.
