Merrill Leisure Gym is a lovely gym. Classes are good. Staff are so froendly and helpful.
I would never stay here again EVER dirty towels, no toiletries as advertised & not replenished. Stinking horrible corridors so bad I actually puked. Tiny so called double bedroom that barely has the space for one person let alone two. Requested iron the night before which eventually arrived after numerous phone calls to receive an iron with broken cable in several places. Couldn't get into hotel at night, banging on door furiously because no response to the bell. excuse given 'oh I forgot to take remote out of the drawer'. Had to pay for car parking which added additional cost to room rental. Horrible dirty smelly place, avoid at all cost. the establishment should be demolished. Disgusting.
I only use the leisure centre and I think it serves its purpose. The gym is never full and you have enough equipment to do all your workout and the pool is good. The cleanness of the changing rooms could be improved.

Room was cold no hot water and walls were very thin. Staff were rude . Also had to pay 5 euro for parking .Very disappointed, i would not reccommend this hotel, i would not come back again
Very confusing building with access to amenities unclear. Doors that should have been open weren't and access to a lot of the hotel in through confusing passageways. Pool hours are terrible and they mandate swim caps (what?). Rooms were good enough. Fine for an overnight stay.
Staying on bray sea front for a few days (family brake) and my kids were looking for a swimming pool to swim in, a few locals recommend the Royal hotel as they have used it before in the past and we're not "members" me and my son had decided to take a trip just to inquire about times we met at nice young lad at hotel reception I asked him was the swimming pool open to the public as we were just staying on the seafront he said yes just walk down the corridor to the reception. So I went in with my son to be greeted by a girl on the phone I waited politely till she was finished got the impression she was on the phone to a boyfriend or a family member as when she was hanging up the phone she said OK ok love you bye bye . Anyway I asked the all mighty question is the swimming pool open to the public got shut down straight away !No oh No it's for members only! I didn't quite believe her as I walked off , so if it is just for members that's fine I understand but could someone please reply to make it clear to me and other people what the rules are regarding the pool to save people embarrassing them selves like me and my son had to .
Thanks James
Room were old,dated and grubby. Smell of stale smoke from an earlier generation permeated all upper floors.
To be fair the reception, dining rooms and bar are very modern and quite nice. The leisure facilities are as good as they get but the bedrooms really let the whole place down.
Great staff. Very clean. But they need to sort out lighting and emergency lighting issues
Mostly decent, but they did not not give us the room we booked.
It's a central Location Good food.. Friendly staff And night club
Friendly service. Good amenities in room. Size, decor & comfort of room vast very good. Well located.
A special experience. We visited 8/8/16 to 12/8/16 and found the Hotel to be everything it needed to be, good room including amenities, good restaurant, and good food. The Leisure facilities were fantastic and the Wi-Fi reliable and fast. The Hotel staff and the service they rendered took our experience at this hotel to the next level up. They were very professional, but if you wanted friendliness there was an abundance of that too. Some people just want the staff to do their job, well they did that excellently. We try to be friendly wherever we go and all the staff and management reciprocated with genuine good natured Irish humour and kindness. This was our first experience of Ireland, and we look forward to more of the same in future. We would be very happy to return to this Hotel. Thank you Mary and all of your colleagues for the great breakfast and dinner service, you added a lot to our holiday. Graham & Maria.
