The Martello Hotel | Hotel in Bray, Wicklow

Bray seafront mornings, Irish Sea light, a balcony with open views.
The Martello Hotel puts you on the seafront in Bray, with open views across the Irish Sea and an easy base for time in town. The rail station is a five-minute walk away, so arriving and getting around is straightforward. Inside, the property combines hotel rooms and self-catering apartments, giving you a flexible stay with a direct line to the water and the rhythm of the coast.
Choose a room for a simpler setup, or an apartment if you want more space to settle in. Some hotel rooms have sea views, and the apartments add a well equipped kitchen and open-plan living area, along with free Wi-Fi. The layout is geared to longer stays as much as overnight visits, with the comfort of having your own space while still being part of a hotel setting.
Upstairs at The Martello serves meals in a casual setting, while the Martello Bar offers a more polished place to wind down. Koo Nightclub is also part of the property, which means the atmosphere can be lively at weekends, especially when live music and DJs are on. That energy is part of the stay here, and it helps set clear expectations for bedrooms on busy nights.
On foot, The Martello Hotel keeps you close to Bray’s seafront and rail connections, with practical access for exploring without a car. There is no private car park, and on-street parking is available Monday to Saturday, with payment handled through the parking machine, sign, or app. It is a stay that feels connected to the water, the station, and the city’s evening pace.
