“We recently stayed at The Star to celebrate a very special birthday, and it truly exceeded all expectations. The team made us feel welcome with warm, attentive, and thoughtful service throughout our stay. The hotel itself is absolutely beautiful — full of historic charm yet finished to an exceptional standard with luxurious touches everywhere. Our room was very attractive, comfortable, and peaceful, making it the perfect place to relax and sleep. Every detail throughout the hotel feels carefully curated, creating a wonderful balance of elegance and comfort. I particularly liked that fresh milk and a cafetière of coffee can be brought to your room. You can make your hot drinks in your room as and when you feel the need. The food in the restaurant was delicious, beautifully presented, and clearly made with high-quality local ingredients. Breakfast was the perfect start to the day. We left with wonderful memories of the hotel and surrounding area. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a luxurious and memorable countryside escape.”
“After going in to the George inn, and them refusing us a small plate, albeit not a busy service, we walked across the road and the Star were very happy to accommodate our choice. My prawn crayfish sandwich was very nice, and my husband enjoyed his burger. I had two very nice glasses of wine and husband had a beer. The service was very pleasant and the atmosphere friendly and warm. It's not cheap, but the price reflects the quality of the products offered. There are no poor quality eateries in Alfriston and if one place is not hospitable, The Star is a very nice place”
