Every detail at Strand Hotel Bray is designed to evoke a sense of wonder and sophistication. From Wilde’s Gastro Bar, with its warm and welcoming ambiance, to The Curry Leaf, a journey of vibrant Indian flavors—the dining experiences reflect the same elegance and intrigue as the Wilde family’s own legacy.

Indulge in a stay that bridges the worlds of historic charm and modern luxury. The Strand Hotel Bray is more than an escape; it's a curated experience of Wildean inspiration, culture, and unparalleled ocean views.

The room was tired & small difficult to find enough space for two suitcases, the ensuite had nowhere to hang a towel, no where in the shower to place toiletries, the floor was v old. The roller blinds didn't work & the walls were v thin so you could hear the next door neighbour's tv . All the doors slammed shut,the bedside table was also the kettle stand due to size of room. The bed was uncomfortable. the food was v average & the woodfired pizza van parked to the side at the front of the hotel blew smoke directly into the bedroom
