Beautiful location and property. A very comfortable stay and very delicious food downstairs. The only thing stopping me from a five star is that I wish there was a bit more warning about the club. If you’re a light sleeper, I wouldn’t stay here Friday/Saturday as they do have loud club music until nearly 3am. Other than that though, during the week, a very lovely place.

Staff was excellent. They got us in early when we had traveled all day. Nice location. Be prepared for noise into the night though. The party downstairs rocks until way after midnight.

Nice hotel, gets quite loud until about 3am since they regularly have live music in the bar. Good place to stay off you plan on attending pub life, but for a good night sleep, I'd pick another hotel.

GOOD: Bray is lovely! The Martello is a good quality hotel. NOT SO GOOD: If you enjoy the hotel's night life or you are a light sleeper ask for a room away from the DART line at the back. The hotel does need a secure area for leaving bags as I was told room check in was not until 4pm! I would also recommend that some of the staff don't talk about being hungover to each other, where guests can hear their conversation.
