The hotel is in a convenient location, great for exploring nearby amenities like shops and the beach. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, but some areas are showing signs of age. The service was helpful, especially with ensuring a good night's rest. The dining experience offered a variety of options, but some improvements could be made in terms of freshness and temperature. The price paid matches the value received considering the location.

My room on the third floor felt like it belonged to the older part of the hotel, but it was surprisingly spacious. The bed was huge and super comfy.

Service

The staff did their best to ensure we had a comfortable stay, including providing a fan for the unexpected central heating during summer. However, there were certain inappropriate incidents observed that were concerning.

6.8/10

My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. The location was central and well connected, making it easy to explore Bray town, but the rooms were very shabby and not what I expected from the photos online. The staff, however, were lovely and went above and beyond to accommodate my partner's allergy. The dining experience was enjoyable with a lot of variety, although it could benefit from a better sausage supplier.

Rooms

5.0

The rooms were very shabby and not as up to date as I had hoped. They had windows opening right out onto the main street.

Service

9.0

The staff were just lovely and very accommodating, especially in finding a meal for my partner with allergies.

Location

7.0

While it would have been nice to be closer to the beach front, the hotel is very good for accessing various attractions around Wicklow.

Dining

7.0

The dining options were nice with something for everyone, but the breakfast could be better.

5.0/10

The hotel is tucked away in a maze of corridors, giving a sense of being trapped, with dampness issues in the rooms and an old-fashioned look that needs renovation. However, it is located conveniently near attractions and suited our working needs.

Rooms

5.0

The rooms, though big enough, lacked drawers and proper ventilation, leading to damp and musty bathrooms. The smell from drains was noticeable due to a non-functional extractor fan.

Service

Location

6.0

The hotel's location, despite needing a thorough clean, was conveniently close to the beach, the sea life aquarium, and restaurants, making it suitable for various activities.

Dining

5.0

The dining experience was average, with staff making efforts but the food quality falling short, like cold beans on bread. The buffet style setup was not ideal.

Facilities

5.0

Facilities were lacking in maintenance, with issues like dampness on ceilings and flaking paint, hinting at the need for modernization and upgrades.
