Although the rooms were nice and spacious, as an older couple it was difficult for us with the bar Party going in until 2:30 am. They were gracious to give us earplugs. The young folks really love it. It’s directly across from the beach. A train comes into Bray, so if you know how to use trains you could probably come there from the airport by train.

The room we stayed in on the second floor was beautiful, spacious, quirky, and very pleasant to stay in overall. We loved the orange mini fridge, gold tiled shower, big bath tub & the corner chair. It was wonderful.

Staff were brilliant from start to finish, nothing was too much trouble. Lovely room overlooking the prom but why the loo roll holder was an inch above the skirting board is anyone's guess. Easy parking on the road outside, free overnight, but we were a little out of season and mid week.

We had a great stay at the Palm (1 night). Location is excellent, right along the main street facing the water. Several restaurants and shops nearby (including restaurant and bar in the Palm). Nearby activities such as the walk around and up the little mountain, and strolling the promenade. Was about a 10 minute walk from the train station. Room was clean and spacious. The walk in shower was lovely. In the intro email from the Palm they noted it can be loud some nights due to the bar, but we were there on a Monday night and it was very quiet. The front desk staff was pleasant, helpful, and kept our luggage for us before we were able to check in. We would stay here again if ever in the area.

Beautiful room with a direct view of the beach and ocean. Hot tub was an awesome extra treat, but the YUGE tub in our room would have been enough. Dinner was delicious and reasonably priced, especially for quality food with a beach front view.

The hotel room was spacious and beautiful, and had wonderful old world amenities, but in a newly upgraded way. I love the fact that at night you could hear the ocean waves crashing across the street. Additionally, the staff was helpful and super pleasant. What a great place to stay and in a beautiful area!

Although the property is old and the facility is not upgraded to a standard but the serenity of the sea and courteous staff overshadows the negativities.
