Arrived at the Esplanade at 7pm after a long drive. I was at first stuct by the exterior of the building, mainly because it looked like it have been painted in 15years. I gave it the benefit of the doubt, and checked, and then checked out again. The corridor to my room was so narrow, that my case had to... more

Having read some of the reviews i was pleasantly surprised with this hotel. It is in an excellent location with fabulous sea views. I stayed here for one night with my wife and daughter {6 months old}. I did not experience of the previous reviewers problems. The room was clean and well presented and the hotel in general was well... more

stayed here for one night only as last stop on tour of ireland. Worst hotel out of the 6 hotels of our holiday. Receptionist and waitress in dining room very nice but room just ok , no toiletries except for liquid soap dispenser on wall and food really terrible. When we went down to dinner we were the only 2... more

The worst part of my trip to Ireland was this Hotel. It is expensive for such a small room and not to include breakfast in the price was shocking. We stayed for 2 nights and nobody came in to tidy our room after the first night. You almost had to run around in the shower to get wet as it... more

Rooms are badly in need of refurbishment, there is a nasty smell around the whole hotel and on the evening we stayed i was woken up by people fighting and swearing outside my bedroom door. This hotel gives Bray a bad reputation. The... more

I was nervous about staying here after some of the reviews I read. I'm so glad I did. I could not have had a more wonderful stay. My mom and I arrived with my 2 year old son at 10am. We had been on a 20 hour flight and check in wasn't until 3pm. We arrived at the hotel exhausted... more

The waterfront location is definitely the best aspect of this ageing hotel. Our room was in need of refurbishment and smelled fairly musty, but it was grand for a brief overnight stay. The staff member who checked us in was very inhospitable (we arrived rather late - around 23:00), but the woman working in the morning was very friendly and... more

Had a short stay here over a long weekend. I would say its not for a light sleeper, there was a wedding and 2 parties on the 3 nights stayed in the hotel. Didn’t affect our stay though. Breakfast isn’t included but can be added on for 10 Euro each, which serves a good selection. We visited the restaurant on... more
