Disappointing

Beautiful location but room and bathroom looked dated and in need of renovation. Our room was spacious but the space was wasted as no comfortable chairs were provided and only a very small desk. Breakfast was ok but set in a very large and half empty room. The whole experience was very bland.

Monkey Island Hotel - Bray

The hotel was absolutely lovely and I don't have any complaints apart from they could have openned the windows hours before I arrived. It was a hot day and my room was stuffy which didn't really improve after I arrived and I didn't sleep well because of it. Small things change perceptions, I would have given this hotel all 5's as everything else was perfect.

Nice location - rooms a real let down!

To be honest whilst the setting is beautiful the room that i have was old and tired. I had a garden room which looked out onto the laundry bins. When you opened drawers and cupboards the handles fell off. I ordered room service which was ok but I was taken back by the bottle of squeezy ketchup and squeezy mustard that came with my steak - not quite what I had expected. Personally although it wad clean and the staff ok I wouldn't stay again. The room felt small (claustrophic even), dated and I couldn't wait to check out in the morning as a result. They did have wifi but the TV wouold only pick up 2 channels. On the plus side the bed was very comfy. Also you have to cross a foot bridge to get to the hotel - if this was wet it wouldn't be ideal for the infirm but very exciting for kids!

Hotell Monkey Island, Gangavstand til Brey sentrum

Greit hotell i fine omgivelser - ikke nytt, men koselig. Det er gangavstand (16 min) til Brey High Street, ta en tur ned og ta full utnyttelse av Mr. Heston Blumentals matmolekyler. Kan anbefales.

fab location

service was very impressive, the setting for the hotel was idyllic with peacocks wandering in the grounds and drinking pimms while watching the boats sail up the thames.

Lovely location

I booked this hotel as a surprise getaway for my partner. The hotel is in a lovely location and set in attractive grounds. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful and the room was clean and comfortable with a good view of the river and grounds (including rabbits). The hotel is on an island across the river from the car park (connected by a footbridge) and is about 25 minutes walk from Bray village.

SERVICE LACKING IN WARMTH

DESPITE THE BEAUTIFUL SURROUNDINGS THE HOTEL REQUIRES SOME ATTENTION AND THE RECEPTION AND RESTAURANT STAFF SADLY LACKING IN WARMTH.ALSO I LEFT AN ITEM OF CLOTHIING IN MY ROOM WHICH I DID NOT DISCOVER MISSING FOR 24 HRS YET THERE WAS NO CALL FROM THE HOTEL STAFF WHO MUST HAVE DISCOVERED IT WITHIN A FEW HOURS OF ME LEAVING.THERE WAS ALSO A HASSLE IN THEM TRYING TO LOCATE IT!

Not the best place to stay

I agree with other reviewers, this isn't a great place to stay, very far from Fat Duck so you'll need a car, walking is not an option in the dark after dinner! The room was so hot even though I was there in April, the toilet was not flushed and had stains (ewww) and some reason there was no ventilation and the bathroom felt like a sauna, I had to sleep with the air conditioning on. Not recommended as I'm sure there are better places to stay. The reception guy was friendly and nice though.

Picturesque

Lovely surroundings, great service, got the feeling that the whole hotel was being slowly refurbished, most of the communal areas were nicely decorated. Yes, the rooms are a little tired (but clean and have decent facilities) but didn't detract from the experience for me. Overall, I'd recommend this hotel and would go again.
