Have just returned from a very enjoyable 5 day stay at the Star Hotel. All staff very helpful. Rooms very old fashioned but have just had a facelift and are very clean with tea/coffee making facilities. Food excellent although I have to admit I thought I'd gone back to the 1970s! eg Peach melba, Pear Belle Helene, Sherry Trifle! Met... more

My partner and i (early 20s) went here in july 07 for a weekend. I enjoyed staying here - traditional scottish hotel. only thing i would say is rooms quite small. Food lovely and a good base for touring. more

The Star Hotel, Kingussie, Scottish Highlands, was a wonderful surprise. My partner had booked a 5 day stay in mid November, and we ended up adding an extra night. Charming, clean, and close to all the hiking we wanted to do, the Star became "home" for us quite quickly-a breakfast and dinner are provided and as others have said-the selections... more

I have stayed at the star hotel 4 times and am thinking of booking another stay. Has very friendly staff and the service was great. The rooms were always clean and tidy and quite spacious.

My partner and I saw the advert for this hotel in a magazine and the "deal" of 5 nights dinner, bed and breakfast for £139 was too good to miss. Having never been in this area before we were looking forward to it and were not disappointed. The room was lovely and clean with the towels changed every day. The... more

We are just back from our long weekend stay at the Star Hotel. We were there for a family birthday celebration and had an excellent weekend. Ok, so the decor is not the most modern, but we found the accommodation to be spotlessly clean, tidy and functional. Towels were changed and the room was "made up" every day. We have... more

Just back from our twelth visit to the Star Hotel. Such a fun stay again!! We just booked for the Easter weekend and ended up extending our holiday at the Star for the rest of the week.
