9 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2026
Very friendly Staff and in a great location
The best room overlooking the sea wasn’t open for guest use it would have made a perfect lounge area.
7 / 10Good·Oct 2026
The room had a sea view, as requested, but see below for other comments. We stayed three nights and ate in the Curry Leaf every evening, waiting staff attentive and helpful, food was good; choice of noisy or quiet area. Parking on the street was 5 euros for a day was no problem. Unusual house full of Oscar Wilde memorabilia.
The room was far too small for a double. No room for nightstands and one side of the bed butted up against the bathroom door. Half the sockets in the room didn't work and the ones that did were behind/under the small dressing table (we had to find these ourselves, no explanation on arrival). Suitcases had to lie on the floor. Only one chair. Bathroom so small nowhere to lay toiletries. No lift in the house and two flights of stairs down to the restaurant. So for us a lot of inconveniences.
7 / 10Good·Sep 2026
Brilliant location, historical references, tasteful decor, comfortable room.
Somewhat overpriced for the facilities. Car parking costs.
6 / 10Average·Sep 2026
It is in a great location on the seafront in Bray with a view from our room. The rooms are nicely decorated and had a comfortable bed.
This is a historic hotel and it all feels a bit rundown with multiple businesses on the same site that detract from the fact that this hotel used to belong to Oscar Wilde's family. We had to arrive and exit via the bar not the main entrance which was awkward with cases and stairs.
