ザ ストランド ホテル - ブレイ(The Strand Hotel Former Home of Oscar Wilde & Caffe Vergnano 1882)

This quaint hotel is excellently located next to the sea. The view was lovely. I sat at the window with a cup of tea and watched and listened to the waves crashing. The food is really good too.

Very good had a great stay

Great location and view and food in both the bar and the Indian restaurant was great. Breakfast in the cafe was perfect and coffee was the best. Rooms very comfortable with great bed. All staff were really helpful and approachable. Would recommend for sure.

Excellent location. I had room #6, which was very spacious and had an excellent view of the sea. Walking distance to everything in town.

Very difficult to get the air coach to the airport. Not easy to book a taxi. Relied on the locals for help. To isolated

The hotel is charming, and right on the water. Perfect to get up early and go walk the shoreline. The coffee is the small shop is EXCELLENT, as was some of the cake/pastry we sampled. The small deck off the coffee shop is beautiful and overlooking the water. Also, there is a train right by the hotel that goes directly into Dublin. Perfect to avoid driving!!! The only two downsides: 1) It was a party atmosphere outside late night. If you want to sleep early, it can be difficult. 2) We tried to get into our room a little early, and the hotel could not accommodate us. Conversely, they asked that we actually wait longer than checkin time.

Beautiful views of the Irish Sea, friendly, welcoming and helpful staff.

My wife and I had a very nice stay here and it had a very nice view of the beach. Beautiful area. Would recommend checking it out!

This hotel holds all that is charming about the era in which it was built in combination with fully modernized lighting, plumbing, and mattress. We are SO impressed with the kindness and gracious welcome of all the staff here. Our room was on the top floor with a small window looking out on the ocean; perfect! We slept really well. The water pressure was fantastic in the shower. We had dinner in the Curry Leaf restaurant downstairs; delicious! Breakfast was just right; lots of options. We HIGHLY recommend this place.
