Old Boots left this review about White Star Hotel
It looks like this old place has had a bit of a wash and brush up, especially in the back room, it’s looking cleaner than previously. The interior is a magnificent survivor from the 19th century, lots of polished dark wood, twisted brass that wouldn’t look out of place on a traction engine and what looks like the original Lincrusta wall paper. Masses of White Star shipping line, Beatles, old Liverpool and boxing themed pictures give an eclectic but interesting décor while you sup well kept beers from Bowland, Bass and guest are sometimes available. Good and friendly mix of customers, ranging from a big group of lads in the front to middle aged couples in the back when I dropped in, like many places in central Liverpool it does occasionally suffer from dodgy DVD sellers. The Beatles are supposed to have drunk here. A good traditional pub amongst some pretty dire bars in the Cavern Quarter.

Fine old pub with a partially tiled exterior that is adjacent to the living hell that is the Cavern Quarter. It's a bit of an oasis from the madness around but it still suffers a bit from the scrote element, especially beggars and CD/DVD sellers, however the landlady gives them the heave ho as soon as they are spotted. The front bar was packed when we called in with a bunch of post work idiots who wouldn't move away from the bar. Four beers on tap that I could see, although there may have been more. I had a pint of the Bowland Sawley Tempted which was great. We moved into the back room, to get out of the way. This room has red leather settles and loads of pictures/memorabilia of the White Star line (no surprise there then). It's OK in here and it's definitely the best pub in the Cavern Quarter.
