Lock in a great price for Urban Beach Hotel - rated 9.1 by recent guests.

to get started.

Quirky with good atmosphere where staff were very helpful and nothing was too much trouble. Very clean with modern facilities.

Denise, United Kingdom

The friendly atmosphere, the semi outdoor bar area, the breakfast, the staff, the beds.

David, United Kingdom

The staff were very friendly Quiet location Comfortable bed

Tom, United Kingdom

Excellent service from all the staff and a really good on-site bar and restaurant.

Matthew, United Kingdom

This is funky and hip hotel with popular restaurant dowstairs. Rooms are really quiet. Beach is in the 15min walking distance. Parking is free on neighbouring streets.

Peep, Estonia

The hotel is nicely located and is a great base for going to the beautiful Boscombe beach: it's a short and pleasant walk downhill (you'll have to walk uphill to get back of course). The hotel is situated above an overpriced gourmet bistro, they serve food until 22:00 and have great breakfast options. The hotel shares its parking with the bistrot (4 spaces I think) and you can't reserve a space as they fill up on first come first served basis. But the staff was very nice to help me find a free space in the street next to the hotel, I really appreciated it.

Maria, Russia

The Urban Beach Hotel has great character and is full of those extra little things that make a great stay. From the box of treats in the room to the heated seats in the outside dining area. The room was to a high standard and the food in the restaurant was really good.

Andrea, United Kingdom

Funky venue with superb room. Really welcoming and friendly staff. Food was fab too. Loved it.

Emma, United Kingdom

Very comfortable bed! The room was a good size as was the bathroom. The bar and restaurant was very good. The food was excellent and there was a good range of cocktails at the bar.

Tom, United Kingdom

Over all the property was very good although for value for money i would rate at 8 out of 10 CH

Cliff, United Kingdom

“Lovely little boutique hotel”

눉The room was a little cramped due to the eaves of the roof and the bed was a bit soft. The cost per room was at the top end of the value range on my view.
눇Excellent service from all the staff and a really good on-site bar and restaurant.

“Urban Beach Hotel”

눉Room was tiny as well as the on suite and as the room was in the roof - I couldn't stand up straight in the shower (6'.3" tall). The noise from the bar/restaurant below the hotel is quite significant if you open the windows in your room. Paid my bill as I booked the room, but would no be returning to the hotel again - I'm not saying that its a bad hotel, far from it, but for a shade under £300 for two nights, I really expected more for my money if I'm being honest.

“Overpriced but nice and clean”

눉The pasta I had at the bistrot was quite mediocre. Despite the blinds it became very light in my room quite early in the morning so I couldn't sleep much longer than the early June sunrise. I had a single room (I think it's Room 4) and it was absolutely tiny with the tiniest bathroom in the world. The bed was tiny and squeaky too. It wasn't the best rest I've had.
눇The hotel is nicely located and is a great base for going to the beautiful Boscombe beach: it's a short and pleasant walk downhill (you'll have to walk uphill to get back of course). The hotel is situated above an overpriced gourmet bistro, they serve food until 22:00 and have great breakfast options.
