What guests think

At Wilton Hotel Bray, guests consistently praise the friendly, helpful staff, spacious and comfortable rooms, and a well-regarded buffet breakfast, while noting its quiet outskirts location with ample parking and some limitations around the restaurant and bar.

Many reviews highlight that the property is a walk or short ride from Bray’s seafront and town centre, with bus links nearby and convenient train access to Dublin. Rooms are generally large and comfortable, though decor varies and some guests found rooms warm with temperature control tricky. Cleanliness feedback is mostly positive for rooms, but some public areas and older carpets or bathrooms show wear. Best for travellers seeking a quiet base in Bray rather than a full-service resort feel.

Nice hotel with convenient free parking. Room was very big and looked recently modernised. Appears to be also now used as a hostel in other floors with children on scooters going past the room. This didn’t disturb my sleep. Quite expensive considering this fact.

I have requested refund . We were unable to eat in restaurant or sit outside due to hotel being used as immigrant campus. We were more or less confined to room as nowhere to go. Plus our view was of a bicycle shed and we had numerous kids peering through our window. We booked out next morning a day early. Still awaiting response from Hotels.com

I was very surprised that the hotel had no bed/ bathroom with a walk in shower, I am young but have a fractured hip due to a fall and requested a walk in shower they don’t have this so I was required to climb up into a big bathtub to take a shower which I just couldn’t do so I couldn’t shower, thank goodness I was only booked for one night, made a hasty departure so I could get to my next hotel and check in so I could shower.. Also the grounds were very dirty with cigarette butts every where and no outside trash cans to put any litter etc in… The inside is quite shabby and needs a refurbishment… So glad I had only booked one night and I do not recommend this establishment… I was very disappointed as I had read the reviews and booked accommodation because of the reviews..

The kind and attentive service is what makes this property worth a stay. The room was mostly basic but was clean and quiet. There were no wash cloths available (which may be an Irish hospitality thing?) and the breakfast service, though good (but not included), was not that wide ranging. The water pressure and shower/tub took a while to get used to, as did the toilet flushing, but again the service they gave was what made it welcoming. A special thanks to Tyler, who was kind, patient, and as accommodating as she could be to attend and address our questions. And thank you to the staff who decorated our room for my wife’s birthday. It was much appreciated!

The property is right across Kilruddery house and gardens and a 10 mins drive from the town of Bray. The location is good if you want to stay in a quiet area away from town and with a good parking area (free). Rooms are quite big and comfortable though there is carpet and in our room it seemed an old carpet. Other rooms at the ground floor looked refurbished and more modern. Good value for money considering the area.

My wife & I stayed @ The Wiltshire for six nights. The staff were very friendly, pleasant & attentive. The room was a good size with a king size comfortable bed. We dined in the hotel & the meals were excellent. In summary we would recommend this hotel. N.B. The hotel is located @ the back of Bray & is a good 15 min. walk downhill to the sea front, there is however a regular bus service from near the hotel.

Is was out in a room on top floor with a water tank in the ceiling or something like that. Was noisy all night so didn’t sleep. Breakfast and dinner were served in the lobby due to the restaurant being used by others. Why did they put me in this room when the hotel wasn’t full. Room and bathroom out dated. Tiles coming away and shower head didn’t function properly. Certainly didn’t look like it did on the site.

The hotel is well kept with friendly staff (who sorted out a room for me very quickly despite my arriving a couple of hours early - I would have been quite happy to push off until the proper booking in time). Excellent breakfasts, I didn't try the evening menu. Half an hour to walk down to Bray and the train to Dublin is very frequent and takes about three-quarters of an hour, so if you are wanting to visit Dublin but stay somewhere quieter this is an excellent choice. It's also convenient for the Wicklow mountains and other countryside areas.
