What guests think

Travellers describe The Famous Star Hotel Moffat as a unique, centrally located stop with exceptionally friendly, family run service, very clean rooms, and satisfying food and breakfasts, making it a charming base for short stays and onward journeys.

Rooms range from spacious front-facing options with town-square views to smaller, quirky layouts typical of the building's narrow design. Guests appreciate the lively bar and restaurant and the convenient free parking nearby, though numerous stairs and the lack of a lift can be challenging for those with mobility issues. A few reviews note intermittent hot water and occasional internal noise or squeaky floors, and some mention minor tired areas or a breakfast style that will not suit everyone. A pleasant, character-rich stay run with care.

Hotel was recommended to us and we were not disappointed possibly fortunate to have been offered a larger first floor room in a unique hotel. Once we figured out the bedside lamp switch (ask the staff) our time here went quickly. Location on main street on a warm town event filled weekend but external noise didn't interrupt good night sleep. Breakfast great with add ons and take outs catered for. Only downside to the place, in common with many older properties is the abundance of stairs. Would we go back yes no hesitation.

Excellent and friendly service at arrival. The property was very clean and the rooms/bathroom very roomy for the narrow property. Well appointed toiletry items and coffee/snacks. Loved that parking was pretty easy and free in town (we parked right in front of the hotel). Didn't have time to have a bite or pint in the bar, but will next time!

What a super little hotel! Upon arrival, we received a warm Scottish welcome and were shown up to our rooms. It may be the narrowest detached hotel in the world but the rooms aren't lacking in space. The following morning we had a good Scottish breakfast before heading north on our journey.

Quaint small hotel in a beautiful small Scottish City. It was comfortable, warm, clean room. Restaurant and bar downstairs, we were in the middle floor. If you can get the top floor bedrooms, if not, you'll hear the squeaking floorboards above you as people walk around. Other than the squeaking, the stay was perfect, staff were great. Nice place to walk around outside. Plenty to eat and enjoy a small community.

Very pleasant stay in Moffat. The famous star has Very welcoming and friendly staff. My hotel room was comfortable and had plenty of space. The shower in my room took a little while to get hot, but it did warm up after a few minutes. (Although I know some other guests did have trouble getting hot water). I had dinner in the hotel which was very nice, and breakfast in the morning was plentiful, and hearty.

We missed the hotel on our first pass following Google instructions. It does have a very narrow frontage! When we spotted it, there was a space in the fee parking just opposite. Our room was small but had a comfortable large bed. It was hot weather, but the window was easy to open to get some air through. The staff were pleasant and helpful. The steak pie and local beer were both excellent. We left early so didn't have breakfast. Moffat has a very attractive town centre with plenty of interesting shops and signposted walks.

Used this hotel as a stop off en route to Grantown on Spey, it’s about the halfway point for my journey. Very friendly staff, very clean room, breakfast was not for me as it was too greasy, but that might have been just me. I would stay again but not for breakfast. Indian restaurant a couple of doors away was good, but the menu in hotel did look very nice, I just fancied a curry after a few beers.
