Star Hotel

Booked this hotel after seeing an advert in the paper. Great deal with DB&B. Tasty food great service. clean rooms though small. Staff very helpful. My wife had a broken leg so staff were able to accommodate in a downstair cottage. Only a bath but there a downstair one with a shower and bath

We spent a night at the Star Hotel as a base for some walks around Kingussie in early July. Overall the Star was showing its age a bit but provided exactly what we wanted - a comfy bed, great breakfast and friendly and helpful staff. There was no shower in the en-suite but a hot bath after a long walk was just as good, so no complaints. And the location is perfect - in the centre of town and just down the road from the best restaurant in Kingussie (the Tipsy Laird). Would happily stay there again.

Booked through third party website at last min, very reasonable price when compared to everywhere else around. Called to make sure booking went through- Gill was exceptionally helpful and lovely giving details how to check in late etc. I was lucky to get a double room, very clean comfortable and had all I needed, including being beautifully done up with clean towels again for my second night. Very good breakfast in morning and exceptionally good prices in the bar, complimented with live music each night - all in all a lovely stay.

One of few places to offer single rooms. Conveniently situated just off A9 in centre of town with free parking. Co-op and other shops nearby and 2 fish and chip eateries. Comfortable bed. Shower a bit sluggish on second floor. Church clock chimes every hour even through the night. Good choice at breakfast though 8.15 am is a little late for early starts. Extensive bar menu. Stayed 4 nights in May as hill walking base.

We stayed here for one night and my impressions were a very helpful receptionist, dated decor, smells like my late nan's house in the party area upstairs and the hotel does not seemed to have changed anything since it first opened. Wifi is only in the reception area, which wasn't a problem for us. Definitely needs an upgrade and update in all areas. Our room was tiny, which would have been a problem had we stayed more than one night. It was clean and the bedding and towels were fresh. The TV , however, should be in a museum - there was nothing really to do in Kingussie. It has a Freeview box, but the reception at times was dreadful. We didn't have a brilliant night's sleep - the bed is very comfortable, it was just that it was hot in the room and we couldn't have a window open as our room faced the main road and the traffic noise was loud. We had requested an early breakfast, and were unable to partake in the cooked breakfast due to the early request. The continental breakfast was fine - cereal, coffee, juice, yogurt and a couple of pieces of fruit. I doubt we would stay here again.

Booked this hotel as a stop over on the way home from Skye.Made a good choice.We only stayed for one night,very friendly staff.great bar meal in evening,there was also enterainment on the Friday night.Great fresh cooked breakfast.
