This place is just beautiful. Ocean views. Well located. Easy access to train and buses to go directly to Dublin. Street parking was easy. The bars in the hotel are very lively on the weekends but that’s fun too.

loved staying here. although there were a ton of stairs and no lift, they still had staff to bring up our bags. super amazing breakfast and lunch. i would absolutely stay here again.

Great location on the sea front. We found it easy to park close to the hotel on the sea front road, although a parking charge of 1 euro per hour applies. The room we stayed in was spacious, well equipped and very clean. All the staff were helpful and welcoming. Breakfast is served at the hotel but comprises a choice from the a la carte menu. Unless you only eat a small breakfast we found was is best value to pay in advance (12 euros).

Basic beach accommodations in a popular area. No complaints. Restaurant and bar on premises was convenient.

First of all the PROS: Location-you could not ask for a better location for the apartment. Right in the middle of Old Town with very easy access to everything. The CONS: The stairs-winding staircase that gets kind of narrow at the top so watch your step. The interior-while everything was working as far as we could tell, the furnishings seemed a bit on the cheaper side and/poor construction in places. The exterior- you are warned about the corridor in the description and it didn’t disappoint, but we never felt unsafe. Would I stay here again? Yes because location is the key.

Location was ok in the middle of the beach area. Carpet was so dirty looking. Not very updated. Room was nice and comfortable bed, but Room 108 was terrible. Staff working and banging things until after 1:00 am. No lift for seniors to get their bags up several flights of stairs.

Stayed here last year and no complaints but this year it was not a good experience, room was like a broom closet with screened windows because of the horrible view outside, even though I had asked for a sea view as it was my 71st.birthday. Food was warm but not hot and although I do like loud music it didn't stop till 3 in the morning. Never stay again but will stay in bray again but not the martello.

Staff amazing and food always delicious and accommodating to my asks for certain food. The first room was so helpful to me so I wouldn’t have stairs to my room however this room on the first floor was noisy from trash and metal beer barrels being moved around outside my bedroom window and no one could fix the heat problem. They moved me to another room with beautiful views and nice amenities and the trip finished on a wonderful note. I recommend this Hotel wholeheartedly. They care about their guests.
