Had dinner in the bistro and the food was fantastic. The cocktails were a little expensive. The breakfast buffet had a wide range of food choice and accomodated for all types of morning foods.
Played the golf course. Course in fantastic condition, speed of play was very slow however.

Beautiful hotel, lovely, big comfy beds and beautiful bathroom. Ideal for our family stay. Pool is great for the kids. Breakfast was lovely with lots of variety. We ate dinner in the Dungeon bar and it was delicious.

The whole place has a lovely feel about it. The staff were wonderful and helpful. Nothing was a bother to them. The pub was wonderful and Bellevue restaurant was impeccable. The area is off the beaten track so to speak but this was the appeal to us. Lots surrounding the area including multiple coffee shops and shops and the sea front is only a 8 minute drive away.

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 hotel is in an excellent location with direct coach from airport and the local town of Bray.
The rooms were lovely the breakfast was tasty and genourous both Irish full breakfast and continental.
The local town is a really nice place with plenty of food and drinks locations on seafront, Montellos and Daata curry house being a good examples but not the only places search for yourself.
Dublin is easy to get to from Bray station on the Dart a regular service.
I really enjoyed my stay please consider this hotel you will not be disappointed.
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 :)
Location is exceptional, but it is the staff that make this place great. They are so friendly, considerate and helpful despite sometimes being so busy. I have honestly not met a better bunch of staff at a hotel. Also love having short quotes from Oscar Wilde dotted around the place, and how each room is named for a Wilde story or play
Everything was perfect with our room, we decided to have dinner at the Martello and we stayed a couple of days before Christmas, I had the chicken and bacon pasta and my girlfriend had the veggie lasagne, so suitable for vegetarians too, both tasted great, beautifully decorated hotel and right by the seafront.
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.
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.
Beautiful slice of history, sympathetically decorated in keeping with the history of the building. Fabulous, welcoming & attentive staff. Excellent breakfast. Set on the seafront in close proximity to all that Bray has to offer.
Thank you so much .We had a really lovely time at the Royal Hotel Bray Co Wicklow. All management and staff were so nice and friendly and helpful. The food was great. The rooms were spotless. The hotel was beautiful.
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!
Amazing venue located right on bray seafront ! Food below in the palm restaurant was exceptional! It was lovely to be able to wake up to a sunrise too !!
