Our group stayed here at the end of May.The hotel is smack in the middle of Bray and is convenient for everything.Bus stops are across the road and seafront is a pleasant 10 minute stroll away.

The positives - the hotel has a central location in the centre of the town and is a ten min walk from the dart station and the beach. It had a well maintained leisure centre and parking on site for 5 euro a night. This room was very large and spotlessly clean. The only real negative was the room was... More

I stayed at the Royal way back in June 2006. Back then it was lovely and that's why I decided to stay again. I suspected something had changed based upon the Tripadvisor reviews from other guests.

I was very disappointed with the Royal hotel as I had heard so many good things about this hotel, however, this was not the case when I went to stay. I had six people with me who were all in my care. The service was awful as they didnt have enough staff on over the weekend. Yes I understand that... More
