The Star

"True 5 star Hotel. Stayed for two nights. Beautiful rooms, peerless service, fantastic location within small village. Great walks from the doorstep. We stayed between Christmas and New Year, when it was fully booked, but have to say service was not affected one iota. Alfriston has several pubs and gift shops. Food at the hotel is top notch. Although it is not cheap, it is worth it for the quality of the food and ambience within the restaurant. If you fancy a treat, for yourself or someone else then you will not be disappointed."

"We’ve just returned from a fabulous stay at the Star Inn. The rooms were lovely, really comfy beds and beautifully designed. The staff were so welcoming and helpful. We were there to celebrate my parents’ wedding anniversary and everyone went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Dinner in the restaurant was delicious, and breakfast was great. We will definitely return, highly recommended!"

"We have now been to the Star 3 times. Soon after it first opened, in which it was lovely if slightly frenetic, then again this July, and once more in September. It is a pleasure to visit a hotel that i run so professionally. Every member of the staff are friendly, happy and good at their job. The rooms are very well equipped, beautifully appointed, and very comfortable. The breakfasts are wonderful with an extensive quality buffet and a hot menu too. That's hot food, the actual menu is pretty cool! The dinners are superb. You could not want anything more from this lovely hotel. You even get the added bonus of Alex Polizzi herself being present on certain days of the week. "Oh darling!" If you have never been, treat yourselves, you will not be disappointed."

"Lovely Sunday lunch with good friends. Not bowled over by any of the starters on offer but we all agreed the roast beef was amazing, as was the puddings. Lucky I saved myself! Staff were friendly and attentive. A beautiful place to visit for a special occasion. We will be back."

"We went here as we had heard really nice things about it. We went for lunch in the courtyard. On first seeing the lunch menu, I was not initially that enthusiastic about it. However, on tasting to food, I was really impressed. Absolutely delicious. Fish was cooked beautifully, chips were also fantastic. The real star though were the slow cooked peas. Amazing! The best fish and chips ever? Quite possibly. The restaurant and hotel itself were immaculate and very tastefully decorated. The staff were very friendly and excellent."
