the Urban beach hotel is quirky, fun and inventive. we stayed here in january and booked into room 8. the room had a split floor bathroom which was spotless with a bath and shower. our room had a tv and dvd player with a selection of dvds which was perfect for our relaxing break.

we decided to eat at the hotel in the evening and found that the food was outstanding. we had read reviews that said the hotel was too far away from bournmouth however we found that the 30minute sea front stroll was a nice way to spend our time. there are also lots of busses that run from bournmouth to boscombe.

breakfast in the morning was available until 11 which was very civilised and the food again was amazing. the whole break had a personal and friendly feel to it.

we would definatly stay at the hotel again!!

My husband and I stayed a night as part of my 60 birthday celebrations. My daughter gave me a card saying 60 is the new 20 and that summed up my feelings staying here! There is a great fun and friendly vibe, the room and bathroom looked stylish and trendy and the breakfast was one of the best we have had anywhere.
My tip is to book on the hotel website and you can choose which room you like the look of. They guarantee their rates, live on their website, are the very best deals you can get.

This is a really good B&B. You get the feeling the owners have stayed in other B&B's and thought 'how can we make this a better experience'. Its the little touches I like, for example a selection of dvd's to watch, welly's for the beach and the best in my opinion a note saying where the switch is to turn the extractor fan off in the bathroom so you can relax in quiet.
The breakfast really was one of the best I've had. They say this as a lot of places do, but this really was good. Everything from the glasses for the fruit juice being big, the range of cereal to the quality of the cooked ingredients.
The bed was comfy and the heating had the room at the right temperature.

Don't let the 'funkiness' of it put you off.

Points to note:- The water system made a noise during the night. The way I got rid of the noise was to run the cold tap a few times.
The funky sink in the room looks cool, but with the tap in the middle its very difficult to wash/rinse your face.
It is a drive to the gym and the town centre.
Paid £38.

I went to stay at the Urban Beach for a break as I'm a carer. This hotel is very special. It is unique in many ways, one of the biggest I found was the atmosphere, it is free and fun but still serious when it comes to food, drink and service.
The hotel makes it's own scrummy liqueurs and delicious, inventive, responsible food.
The atmosphere is very relaxed, a bit surfy, very Sunday morning but exciting too.
The rooms are really lovely. Ultra clean, well thought out and very comfortable. There are many nice touches, for example a DVD library and a phone charger unit in case you forget yours plus really nice drinks and biscuits in the room. The showers are good, the beds comfy. I wished I could work there, you just know it's going places. It reminded me of when I first went into Cosmetics to Go, years ago (now Lush) just that feeling that they'd got it spot on, were meant for great things, and you were privileged to be there.
Will definitely stay again when I am able. Thanks Urban Beach :-) x x x
