Hotel The Royal Hotel & Leisure Centre
Main Street, . Bray, Ireland – Good location – show map
The hotel is well situated especially if you want to be a little away from the crowds and the activity of Dublin. There are a number of buses that run to Dublin or south of Bray right outside the hotel's front door. The DART station is a 10 minute walk, and from there you can catch the train into the city or Irish Rail down the eastern coast. Another very positive aspect is that guests have free access to the pool and fitness room which are very well maintained and attractive.
United States of AmericaBreakfast was great! Room was very nice - comfortable, clean, spacious. Location was excellent. Only one issue. Upon checkout we were informed we owed more money for an order of fried mushrooms. We never ordered these and only ate breakfast one morning. The clerk at 5;30am COULD NOT MAKE THE decision to remove the incorrect order but said he would talk to the manager. Apparently that did not happen. I was billed for the order but am disputing the charge on my card.
United States of AmericaExcellent management and service. Very friendly and professional. Will recommend to all my friends and family. Thank you so much 😊
United States of AmericaIt's a great location. In the town centre and a few minutes walk to the sea front. I ate in the main attached bar which is average if a little rowdy (sport on screens everywhere). I left the hotel early before breakfast.
United KingdomBeds comfy, room clean, food was great, location was nice
Canadaour kettle in the room was not working, the manager gave us a free room upgrade to a much bigger one then we booked, so happy, he even took the time to sit down with me and my gf and have a talk, staff very nice.
IrelandThe location was excellent for our needs and easy walk to the beach area. The rooms were quite nice and a pretty hotel with a good pub attached. Access to the Leisure Center - pool, sauna was an added plus.
United States of AmericaRoom was nice and clean with a very comfortable bed. Overall quite satisfied.
