The man sticks his middle finger up at raging protesters
The shocking footage was filmed during a heated protest in front of the Dorset hotel last Friday evening.
As a young man is escorted by a police officer towards the seaside hotel, an anti-migrant protester is heard shouting: "Where are you from mate?"
The migrant then flicks a cigarette towards the group before shouting back at them.
Adding fuel to the fire, another protester can be heard asking him: "Were you running from a war?"
The man stops before turning to give the crowd the middle finger.
The Chine is one of three hotels in Bournemouth that are used to house asylum seekers and thereby closed to the public.
The late 19th century hotel - visited by celebrities like Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy and Dame Vera Lynn - is known for its sea views.
It has 88 rooms that showcase views of the sea or the landscaped gardens, along with indoor swimming pool and spa facilities.
The honeymoon suite is said to cost £200 a night.
The protest saw anti-migrant protesters passionately waving their Union Jack flags and playing patriotic songs like 'Three Lions' and 'Rule Britannia' on a loudspeaker.

A group from Stand Up To Racism, supported by former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, showed up to form a counter-protest.
They held up placards, reading: 'Refugees Welcome, Stop The Far Right'.
Dozens of police officers created a barrier between the two groups as things became heated.
Though one anti-immigration protester squared up to a police officer, no arrests were made during the three-hour protest.
It comes as mothers and children dressed in pink protested outside Britain's most controversial migrant hotel on Saturday - before masked yobs hijacked the event and clashed with police.
Demonstrators chanting 'Save our kids and women' shut down a busy road outside the four-star Britannia International Hotel in Canary Wharf, East London.
They were among 200 anti-migrant protesters waving flags, including a giant St George's Cross, and calling for an end to small boat crossings.
On Sunday, the Met Police issued a Section 42 dispersal order banning some demonstrators from gathering outside the hotel for 28 days.

Victory for farmers who sprayed travellers with manure in tractors as 500 squatters & 200 caravans FINALLY evicted
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) FRENCH farmers who sprayed manure at squatters invading their land celebrated a major victory after a court ordered the intruders to evict. Agricultural workers from the village of Hautes-Vosges in eastern France feared prosecution after they sprayed a mixture of faeces and water across their farmland to push out the invaders. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 4 The trail of manure seen in the encampment Credit: Supplied 4 Furious farmers used tractors to spray the slurry across their agricultural fields Credit: Supplied 4 The hardworking farmers said they were driven to the boiling point Credit: Supplied Astonishing footage showed the furious farmers using tractors to spray the slurry across their agricultural field where the caravans were parked. The squatters, who parked their campers illegally, were seen battling to stop the onslaught of stinking faeces as the tractors chased them down. The hardworking farmers said they were driven to the boiling point after cops refused to step in and remove the "illegal gypsy camp" residing on their land. With harvest due in just a few weeks - and the invaders refusing to leave - they finally decided to take matters into their own hands. read more on the story POO LA LA Moment French farmers use tractors to spray hordes of travellers with manure The farmers told The Sun that a judge today ordered up to 500 members of a "travelling community of gypsies" to evict the encampment. François, 64, said: "It is a major victory for us. A civil court decision went in our favour. "The travellers were told to move out within 24 hours, or else face police intervention and fines. "Around 500 of them, travelling in about 200 caravans, all left." Loic Madre, the man who shot the video, claimed the travellers moved onto the field - meant for animals to graze on - without permission. To the farmers' delight, France's Interior Ministry said tighter controls on travelling communities would be introduced in the Autumn. Furious farmer caught a camper sleeping in his field and covered him in slurry An Interior Ministry spokesman said: "These measures aim, in particular, to increase prison sentences for illegal settlement involving acts of destruction, degradation, or deterioration, and harm to the natural environment." "Some 20 measures will be outlined in a legislative package that will be put to parliament in September." Travellers parking their caravans in any field they come across is viewed as a major problem across Europe, including in Britain. The squatters at Hautes-Vosges fought back against the farmers, attacking the tractor drivers and forming human chains to try and hold them up. One man was filmed jumping onto a moving tractor and frantically knocking on the driver's window. "The tractors almost knocked us over," said Olivier, spokesman for the Action Grand Passage association, which campaigns for traveller rights. "All we want is a place to stay for a few days, but these cowboys are stopping us," Olivier added. Last year, a similar tactic was adopted by Brit farmer Jack Bellamy when he caught a camper on his land. Shocking footage showed an angry Bellamy spotting the tent and saying: 'I tell you what, these ***** will set up anywhere.' He then jumped in his tractor and drove up alongside the trespasser, unleashing a 15-second blast of stinking slurry.

Boy, 14, died in ‘terror' after dad crashed on motorway while high on cocaine & advised by medics not to drive
DEATH SMASH Boy, 14, died in 'terror' after dad crashed on motorway while high on cocaine & advised by medics not to drive Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A TEEN boy died "in terror" after his dad crashed on a motorway while high on cocaine. Daniel Burba, 31, has been advised by doctors not to drive when got behind the wheel of his wife's van with 14-year-old Ryan Morgan in the passenger seat. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 Ryan Morgan was killed in the horror crash Credit: PA The dad had been diagnosed with epilepsy just weeks before the horror which was made worse by the use of illegal drugs. Despite this, Burba was four-times the limit for cocaine and its derivative benzoylecgonine - causing him to suffer an epileptic fit. Ryan had no choice but to try to gain control of the van before it swerved off the M6 near Lancaster and hit a tree. The teen was tragically pronounced dead at the scene after suffering head injuries. Burba, who also only had a provisional licence, was taken to hospital with "relatively minor" injuries. While being treated, a paramedic discovered a small bag of cocaine in the dad's wallet. Burba has now been jailed for ten years after he pleaded guilty to causing death by dangerous driving and driving without a licence or insurance. In a victim impact statement, Ryan's mum said her heart has been broken and told how she has been unable to grieve properly because she fears once she starts, she won't be able to stop. She continued: 'I feel that no amount of time Daniel will serve will ever be enough for taking Ryan's life. Not only did he take my boy's life, he took my boy's future. "My boy will never grow and be a father, go to work and follow his dreams or travel. He didn't even get to finish school. He hasn't ever had a chance to experience life. "It's so unfair because Ryan did have a beautiful heart. He wanted to be a policeman. He would have changed the world. He made it a better place in the short time he was here. He made everyone smile who came into contact with him. He had a smile that lit up the room. 'Daniel has taken all that and more. Daniel has taken a precious son, brother, grandson, nephew, friend and cousin. He had so much to live for. "The fact that Daniel knew he wasn't allowed to drive due to his seizures, plus a lack of licence and insurance is just disgusting.' Preston Crown Court heard the horror unfolded on April 20 as other motorists noticed Burba driving erratically with his hazards on. He reached speeds of more than 70mph before leaving the carriageway and smashing into a tree. The court heard the Peugeot Bipper van flipped over due to the force it hit the tree. Police later discovered Burba had been told in October 2014 by his doctor to stop taking cocaine after he suffered a seizure which lasted up to four minutes. He was also advised not to drive, with the same warning issued in February when he was admitted to hospital after more fits. Sentencing, Judge Robert Altham, the Honorary Recorder of Preston, told him: 'You knew that cocaine predisposed you to further fits. "You were not entitled to drive unsupervised and certainly not on the motorway. You should not have behind the wheel at all." As well as the jail sentence, Judge Altham disqualified Burba from driving for 14 years and five months. Sgt Martin Wilcock, Senior Investigating Officer at our Road Policing Unit, said: 'No sentence will ever make up for any loss of life, particularly in these tragic circumstances. However, Daniel Burba will have the rest of his life to reflect upon the catastrophic consequences his decision to consume drugs and then get behind the wheel have had. Sadly, his son will not. 'I hope the outcome of this case sends a strong message out to anyone who is considering driving, having been told by a doctor not to. Or anyone who is considering driving, having consumed drugs or alcohol. 'As is so very obvious from this case, you run the risk of taking a life but also ruining many others – including your own.' 3 Daniel Burba has been jailed for ten years Credit: PA
