Stayed here as a treat for my 30th birthday from my girlfriend. All I can see is how much a joke this place is. Firstly we arrived to find out our booking made through late rooms hadn't been sorted so there wasn't a room for us. Then we were made to feel this was our fault and told they only... More

I stayed at the Urban House for a couple of nights while doing the Brighton Marathon – I had been looking for somewhere cheap and cheerful, and it exceeded my expectations. First, the location was great, right near the seafront (and the finish line). The stairway was a bit tatty, and I was dreading the worst while making my way... More

We stayed here a couple of nights in room 6. Great room with sea views, sofa and small kitchen area. OK some might say the decor is a little tired, but really quite stylish and super comfortable bed. Staff were very good, breakfasts fantastic. Can't recommend enough...

Perfect overnight stay. such a lovely place, staff friendly, room beautiful and clean, complimentary breakfast was more than I expected. The location was in Kemp town which is a short walk from the centre with lots of little resturant nearby. Would definitely recommend. Me and partner will return in the summer.

We enjoyed our stay here very much because the staff are so friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much to ask! Our room was clean and fairly spacious, bathroom rather small but adequate, breakfast very nice. WE loved the position of the hotel because it is near the town and sea, but also seemed quiet at night. Our room was... More

Genuine single rooms are a rareity, we usually have to pay the room rate for a double. I got a clean room, comfortable bed, separate lavatory and an ample shower cubicle, so far so good. Of course, the room was very small, who needs enough room to play badminton? The continental breakfast, included in the price, was unusually good: sliced... More

2 night stay, 15/16 March 2013. Clean and spacious room at rear of hotel (so made for a very peaceful sleep), tiny bathroom (barely enough room to swing a gerbil). Room and bathroom would benefit from a bit of a re-vamp as appearance is a bit tired. Pleasant public areas. Good service overall from staff. Breakfast service is VERY slow... More

I stayed here for 2 nights because i had to be in Brighton for an exhibition. the price was £50 per night for a single room, which is not to bad for Brighton. I was in room 23 which is at the back of the hotel with a great view of a brick wall. The room was clean and warm,... More

We stayed here in Feb, 2013 and at first glance, it looked like a good BnB. The room was nice, four poster and which was comfortable. Though we did start to find a few odd things which did make this an Average Mark instead of a Very good mark. There was a little lack of attention to detail, a whole... More
