The Spotlight on Star Hotel

Affordable Comfort Steps from London’s Music Scene

Modern, unfussy, and friendly, the Star Hotel is a cozy, budget-friendly base in West London that puts you close to the city’s top live music venues. Just a 10-minute walk from Hammersmith Tube Station, this hotel keeps you well-connected to the rest of the capital while offering a quiet place to land after a night out. Rooms are simply styled with all the essentials, including a private bathroom, TV, hairdryer, and free Wi-Fi throughout.

Why Concert-goers love it

Music fans rave about the walkable location—it’s under 15 minutes on foot to the Hammersmith Apollo, Lyric Theatre, and O2 Shepherd's Bush Empire, making it super easy to catch a show and stroll back after. Despite being close to the action, the hotel is tucked away enough to offer a peaceful night’s sleep. With a check-in time of 14:00 and check-out at 10:30, there’s enough flexibility for most show schedules, though a slightly later checkout would be nice for those post-gig lie-ins.

Who this Hotel is great for

Groups of friends looking for an affordable base near multiple venues
Solo travelers on a bucket-list gig adventure
Couples turning a concert into a weekend getaway
Fans needing peace and quiet after rocking out
Budget-conscious music lovers who want location without the price tag

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant or bar, you’re surrounded by walkable eateries in Hammersmith and Shepherd’s Bush. From late-night kebabs to cozy cafés, it’s easy to find something satisfying after a show. Breakfast is available at the hotel, perfect for easing into the day after a late night.

Nightlife Options

You won’t find a bar onsite, but you’re spoiled for choice nearby. The area is packed with pubs, bars, and music spots, whether you're up for a post-show drink or some local live music. Both Hammersmith and Shepherd’s Bush have a lively, safe nighttime vibe.

What People Say

Guests love the friendly staff, the clean, well-kept rooms, and the unbeatable location for concerts. Many mention the excellent value for money and highlight how quiet the area is at night, despite being close to major venues and transport.

Areas for Improvement

Rooms are on the smaller side, and the décor is quite simple—don’t expect luxury finishes. Some concert-goers wish for a later checkout time, especially after a big night out. Still, the comfort and location more than make up for it.

The Bottom Line

A solid choice for concert-goers who want comfort, convenience, and value within walking distance of London’s top music venues.

ok ish

Liked: Staff were very friendly and the room clean and bed comfortable.
Disliked: Rooms impersonal, needing update, no toileteries in the bathroom. I thought it was expensive for what we experienced. Area has v expensive restaurants which may be why the hotel price was as it was.

Clean, cosy and very helpful...

Liked: Booked a room here last minute. We were unable to be there for check in hours but they sorted us out and put our bags in the room for us. Great service and would definitely stay here again. The room was small but for the money it was great. Clean and beds were very comfy!

Comfortable stay and amazing staff

Liked: Star Hotel is nice. The building is quite old but the staff did their best to keep it clean. They were also very nice and helpful. It is in a nice neighborhood with a Tesco Superstore nearby and some small cafes. Hammersmit Station is closest and it has three lines which is super convenient.
Disliked: The walls are thin so you can hear even normal level of speaking. There is no small fridge in the room which I think is a standard for any hotel. The area can be quite scary at around 9pm because there are junkies hanging around the area. We witnessed one incident which was quite traumatizing but I learned this is quite a common scene in London (junkies hanging around and the smell of weed).

Room great for a night...

Liked: Location was good for what we needed and the cleanliness off the room was excellent.
Disliked: Room was smaller than expected. En-suite was small so quite difficult to move around in especially if a guest was of a larger size. Room did have air con but wasn’t great however a fan was in room which did help.
