“Cheap and Chearful”

Having arrived in Bray and looking for somewhere to stay we came across the Westbourne, its situated through a bar called Dusty's, The bar is really nice and the hotel is clean, we booked a family room and a single room as there were a few of us, the family room was large enough with coffee making facilities. clean and quite nice, it was at the top of the building so there was plenty of stairs. With it being above a bar in the main part of the town obviously you will hear noise. Breakfast was really nice. (only available til 10am) and all the staff were very friendly as you'd expect in Ireland, the cook/chef enjoys tellings jokes whilst serving breakfast so expect a few wise-cracks. The beds are made everyday and towels replaced so theres no problem there. The only complaint i have is that its the same with all the hotels in Bray is that the water doesnt run too clean, bit like spain in the 80's, fine to shower but dont drink it. Very cheap, at €40 per night its a bargain. Dont expect 5* and you will be fine, if you want more luxury then stay at The Royal, Martello or Porterhouse €130+ per night. You get what you pay for in this life..........

We stayed at the Westbourne over the weekend (2 nights). It is on one of the main road in Bray, Quinnsborough rd), about 10 minutes walk from the sea and the DART station.
The entrance is through Dusty's bar but when we arrived late at night on Friday, we just had to guess which doorbell to ring, there was no sign whatsoever! The room was clean but tiny and smelly with a view accross airvents on the roof tops. The bathroom was ludicrously small, I didn't think shower cubicle came in 1 ftx 1ft... :) There was paint pealing from the ceiling and everything was in a state of disrepair. Also, the walls and floors were very uneven... honest, it wasn't the Guiness!!
The night porter told us that breakfast was served until 10:30 but when we turned up at 10 past, the chef, sitting smoking at the bar (it is served in Dusty's), told us off for being late... his pseudo sarcasm was lost in his genuine rudeness! We were served a plate of bacon, beans, sausage and egg. All was cheap, reheated from god knows when.
All in all, apart from its location and the fact that the resident bar is opened all night, there's not many reasons to stay there. Even the rate at €89 was a lot from what you can get elsewhere in Bray!!!
