Great full irish breakfast included. The room had trouble with the heater but they gave us a space heater that worked.

Bray is a bizarre mix of posh Dublin and 1970s faded northern english seaside victorian town. A bit Scarborough, a bit Norfolk. Lots of amenities, restaurants, bars etc
Beach is large pebbles.
Bray Head walk is wonderful (currently closed for rockfall risk, but everyone seems to ignore the barriers and carry on anyway)
Great place to stay for visiting the area - Greystones is a slightly more upmarket version down the coast, Powerscourt 20 mins away, Glendalough 40 mins away.

Bray is a great place to enjoy a relaxed weekend on the beach. This small town is packed with great restaurants and family entertainment (the National Sealife Aquarium and Bray Bowl Arcade). We ate at The Dough Box, The Palm and Butler and Barry - all the food we had was superb!

Beautiful scenery, harbour and promenade but stoney beach.
Beautiful scenery, harbour and promenade but stoney beach. Lots of opportunity to visit Bray Head with amazing walks and nearby places of interest and also a short train ride to Dublin on the Dart.
Spoilt by a few large but low caliber bars along the sea front which get especially noisy/loud music late at night..However, there are some really good restaurants such as Maison Moli (breakfast was superb) and Dockyard No 8..
Would definitely avoid staying at The Strand!

Bray was a delightful surprise!
Bray was a delightful surprise! We booked our stay out of center Dublin on purpose...but didn't quite realize what a fun seaside town this is, nor how convenient it is to use the DART system, nor how enjoyable it would be to have a cliff walk we could easily access (about 7 km. to Greystones).

I loved Bray the more I experienced the more I loved it , I would definitely revist Bray.
The breakfast at Dockyard no 8 was so good I went back twice.
The wood fired Pizza 🍕 at the Dough box was gorgeous so I went back twice also.
I did try Gish and Chips at the Palm 🌴 but contrary to the menu the Fish 🐟 wasn't in tempura batter and although there was plenty I didn't enjoy it , unlike the mentioned previous places I ate.
I should add that although I'm not a veggie I do not eat meat so sometimes it's difficult to find something suitable on the menu but I can normally find at least one thing.
I will definitely revist Bray.
The interiors and cleanliness of this hotel is 5 stars! In fact in terms of interior design the rooms are incredible and have a gorgeous home from home vibe. Location is ideal very central with lots of great places to eat and drink, and right next to the sea! The complimentary goodies on arrival were also a really nice touch. The shower is AMAZING!
Thank you for the enjoyable stay! We will be back :)
Beautiful boutique hotel was perfect for our one night stay, staff very friendly and welcoming, absolutely perfect , and on the seafront perfect little getaway, only wish we could have stayed longer but we had a wedding next morning.we would definitely stay here again. Thank you for everything Andrea and Ciaran.
Charming boutique hotel. Complimentary cupcakes were a nice surprise. Room decor was beautiful. Small fridge and teapot, nice tea cups, lovely radio, t.v. blow dryer...the room had everything we needed. Comfortable bed and pillows. Awesome breakfast adjoining the hotel.
The Strand was lovely, very clean and staff friendly, rooms weren’t huge but cosy, nice hotel overall.
Excellent. Amazing hotel and superb service. Well recommended. Best breakfast and Indian restaurant was absolutely amazing. Hats of to all Wonderful staff.
Felt very comfortable and safe as Guidelines were carried out very well. Hotel was very clean.
Close to shops and short walk to Seafront.
There was a mix up with our room but Management were very professional and sorted out to suit our requirements.
The whole experience. From check-in to check-out was one the greatest experience I have had on my travels. The hotel had guests from Ukraine, and the heartwarming way they were treated was an example to others. The breakfast was this summers greatest.
The hotel was central in Bray and it was super close to everything, especially the promenade, which was lovely. We stayed overnight after our wedding at Killrudderry and had a nice place to stay before our flight at Dublin airport the next day.
We enjoyed our one night stay in Bray. The hotel was a 10 minute walk to the beach which was nice and the location of it is definitely great. The room and bathroom were clean. The bar in the hotel was nice and had a nice atmosphere.
Ciara was very kind and helpful with restaurant suggestions. The beach was a short walk. Ciara helped us solve a problem which helped us enjoy the rest of our time in Ireland.
Perfect location on the seafront, couldn't be better in Bray.
Room was nice, clean, spacious and exactly as advertised.
Above the Palm which was ideal for a drink and dinner.
Really super clean, quiet and comfortable. Had everything I needed and ideal location. Host extremely nice and welcoming. Next time I am in Bray I will be back!
Location was convenient to where we needed it to be (close to Wicklow Mountains) and centre of Bray was nearby. Relaxing beds, lovely shower and felt safe.
