A very warm, friendly greeting. The room was clean and nicely arranged. The Old Star was a very easy location to access when driving and has good public transport services nearby. The breakfast was self-service with a good choice of cereals, bread, fruit, cheese and yogurt. There was a selection of fruit juices along with tea, coffee and bottles of water. There were also tea and coffee facilities in the room. I would certainly recommend this B&B to anyone wanting a base to visit Bristol and the surrounding areas.

Great location to the city with parking. The bus stop is directly outside and takes only 15mins into town. There are only 3 rooms available and we had 2, so it was like having the place to ourselves. Great facilities with a 'help yourself' breakfast with lots of choice and food!. Karen was lovely, and the contact before we stayed was great! Very very helpful and recommend as a place to stay!

The automatic lights for the bathroom stayed on a while after closing the door, so if you get up in the night to use the bathroom, this may be annoying. I had an eyemask, so it wasn't an issue, but my sister didn't and mentioned this.

wonderful self service breakfast with great choice of good cereals, fruit, tea and coffee. Yoghurts, ordinary and oat milks, bottles of chilled water fruit juices etc. Very friendly atmosphere, lovely owner, Karen. Peaceful location about 20 mins from family we came to see in SE Bristol. Free parking, wi-fi. Good showers and new bathrooms.

mattresses were quite good but in the room with the king sized bed, it was quite comfy but not super comfy. We had two rooms (he snores)! My room had twin beds which once again were quite comfy, not super comfy. The sinks in the bathrooms were very small but that was not a problem.

The lodgings are a short distance out of Bristol city centre, I was made to feel very welcome. There are a few shops, a takeaway and a pub about 400 yards up the road. Breakfast was very relaxed and I didn't feel under any pressure to rush.

Despite it's name The Old Star is not a pub and arriving at night is a bit hard to spot. The entrance is on a busy main road so if travelling by car be prepared to make a sudden turn and be honked by other drivers.

The owner Karen is one of the most lovely hosts I ever had. Very kind and has a solution for all issues/requests!

Water tap in the bathroom could get a little bit more attention from the cleaning and towels don’t get dry during the day due to missing of a proper heating. Highly frequented road is next to the hotel, but if you have good sleep no issues.

The breakfast was great, loads to choose from and really good quality. The host was friendly and helpful and made us feel very welcome, showing us around the property and explaining what we needed to know. Parking was available which is a bonus

It would have been useful to know that I needed to phone on arrival to get access. The automated messages didn't seem to say that and I felt it was a bit of an imposition to phone the host if I didn't need to.

brilliant warm and friendly place. The owners Karen and Phil are so hospitable. Breakfast is self service with a great choice of cereals, bread, yoghurt, ham and cheese, milk, tea and coffee, fresh fruit, bottled water. This is available at all times in the kitchen/small dining area. Bed comfortable. Bathroom clean, plus good shower. Great place to stay when visiting Bristol. Free parking outside property.

Quite a noisy road outside if you are not used to this.

The owners were very helpful when our car had a flat tyre on the way to the hotel. We were stuck for two hours until a replacement was fitted. They. Waited up till late in the evening for us and were very understanding. The hotel was also very clean and tastefully furnished, plus they had recently upgraded the rooms. There was a big choice of breakfast cereal, and bread, with butter, cheese, ham, yogurts, fruit, and different milks to suit all tastes.

Karen is an amazing host who really cares about her guests. She made a point of coming to see me both mornings during breakfast to see if everything was okay. I had the top floor room which was lovely but be prepared to duck in the shower. Locally there's an amazing pub which is lucky, as it's the only place in walking distance for food.

A great number of self service choices that made a great Continental breakfast. I wasn't sure if there was a way to heat the pain au chocolat, but probably was if I had asked. The peaceful surroundings made the stay even more pleasant, and the helpfulness of the staff was exceptional.

I found the wash basin small and not easy to use as I normally do not use a face cloth, I like to almost dip my face in the water before I shave, so a larger basin would be very pleasing.
