    poor service
    abysmal banisters

    the location of this so-called hotel could be lovely, if only the service matched it. I nearly fell down the steep stairs with the abysmal banisters, and I had to drag my luggage up myself, as if I was at a hostel! I expected a room upgrade for all the trouble and just couldn’t believe it. what a disappointment.

    We had a lovely stay, but the bathroom was a bit cramped and the TV wasn't working properly. The breakfast was pretty good though, enormous portions!

    stunning sea view
    cramped bathroom

    A cozy stay with delightful views

    Our room offered a stunning sea view, making every morning feel like a postcard. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay.

    The hotel is quite old, and while it adds character, some areas could use maintenance. The bathroom was a bit cramped for our liking.

    The socket for the keycard to power the lights was broken, and a quick fix involving sellotape wasn’t exactly reassuring. The TV wasn’t connected to the WiFi, forcing me to log in with my Netflix account, which is annoying for a place charging top-notch rates. The room itself was small with a bathroom that felt cramped, and the noise from other guests easily seeped in. The main door closure after hours left you ringing the bell, which isn’t fun in the dark. for €200 a night without breakfast, I expected a bit more comfort and convenience.

    Our stay was fantastic! The house exudes a charming atmosphere of bygone times, and the location is amazing—just a few steps from Bray Beach and the promenade. The view from our window was excellent, offering scenic vistas that added to our enjoyment. The breakfasts were very nice, providing a perfect start to our days. Highly recommended!

    Tiny bathroom.
