We were given an apartment rather than a room. It was very spacious, comfortable and fitted out to a high standard. We were provided with a fantastic selection of food to make breakfast. The staff were lovely and the hotel is very central in Montrose town centre.

The room was fine. Small, but the three of us made it work. The bathroom and shower were good. If we were staying in town longer I would have booked something more expensive, but for the price and one night, We're happy.
We booked an overnight here while attending a surprise 50th birthday party. We were met by Bruce who showed us to our apartment, we were over the moon with it, it was absolutely 1st class. We finished our night off in The Star Hotel bar downstairs, so was just a short trip upstairs to bed, which i thought would have been noisy tbh, but we never heard a thing. We would definitely recommend staying here, great little place.
Die Zimmer und Bäder sind neu renoviert und modern. Freundliches, hilfsbereites Personal (hat von vorneherein angeboten, den Koffer in den dritten Stock zu tragen.
Preis-Leistung passt.
Booked this property as an overnight stay while visiting the surrounding areas. On arrival we were greeted by the Bartender who showed us up to our room ( or so we thought). On entering it become apparent that it was actually an apartment and not just a room which we thought we would be getting for the price we’d paid. Accommodation was excellent! Lovely modern Kitchen area, spacious living area, leading to a small corridor to the bedroom with a lovely modern en-suite bathroom and a small dressing room. Complimentary breakfast was also provided which was also something we were not expecting. Breakfast provided was selection of porridge, breakfast cereal, loaf of bread, Pack of butter, jar of jam, pack of chocolate chip cookies, 6 eggs. 2pint of fresh milk was in fridge, along with 6 pack of sausages & pack of bacon. Totally overwhelmed by the selection of breakfast options which we did not expect at all! Refreshment tray was fully stocked also. Great stay and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a stay in Montrose.

This hotel is in the downtown and we realized that parking is a challenge. When I went in, met Bruce who owns it and explained my situation. Bruce immediately came out, explained where we should park our car. Since we are from US, he realized how difficult to drive in UK, and personally assisted me until I parked the car. The rooms were very clean, spacious with modern amenities. We like it very much. I highly recommend if u are planning to stay in Montrose.
Had an excellent stay at the star hotel. The staff were brilliant. So warm ,friendly and welcoming on arrival . Quite being up a side street. But has excellent location being thirty yards from city centre high street. And Forty yards from main bus stops.

The staff were nice and friendly and the room was clean as was the bathroom. No reception and six flights of stairs to our room. Towels were not changed or room even looked at . Seagulls at 430 am on next roof woke us. Breakfast was pitiful although advertised as English, there was no hot options and the carpet was filthy in that area. My wife said she would be very uncomfortable if she was staying on her own. This is not really a hotel, more of a room above a club slash pub. You feel as though you are the only ones there.
We were told, as we had ordered breakfast, that the chef was unwell and was not able to work. So Bruce rang me and asked what we would like for breakfast, that he was unable to do a cooked one, but what else could he do for us. so he provided cereal, yoghurt and fruit and gluten free toast as well as the usual bread, juice, tea and coffee and porridge. He seemed to be on his own and worked very hard. The service and his professional attitude was much appreciated.
This was one of the worst hotels I have ever stayed in. Situated in a back lane just off the high street, it was difficult to get the car anywhere near. Then there was no parking anywhere near the hotel. No reception or staff onsite. I was met by someone who took me up the 3-flights of steep stairs and gave me a room key. The room and hotel in general was very tired and in desperate need of refurbishment. The room door had obviously been smashed in and repaired!! The walls were paper thin, as you could hear everything in rooms on both sides. The breakfast was awful. The night time drunks shouting up at other residents at 2am just topped off a really bad experience. Never again!!

Disliked: Staff & service
Hotel seemed to have no onsite staff. No reception. There were only 4 guests staying and we were all put on the third floor with no lift. This was difficult as we are an elderly couple.The bar is not open every day so no-one in the hotel at all although there is a contact number in the room. Cooked breakfast was very good, cook was very friendly and also served food. We booked a 2 night stay and the room was not serviced on our second day. We managed to get towels in the evening from the barmaid who was great and went out of her way to help.
I thought the information and reviews on hotels.com were very misleading and I wouldn't have booked had I known what it was like.

No Breakfast
The room was fine but I was informed that breakfast was between eight and ten, when I went down at nine it was all locked up and there was no staff around to help. Not having breakfast spoiled my stay and I had to get breakfast elsewhere.
Bedrooms/shower room great, rest of the facilities tired.
