We loved our weekend getaway at the James Bradley. It’s the perfect location, right next to the beach. The property is gorgeous, quiet and clean and the staff was very welcoming and friendly. The breakfast included in your stay is delicious and there are plenty of dining options in Bradley Beach or Asbury Park and Belmar, which are a quick drive. We can’t wait to come back!

The hotel was modern and clean. The staff was extremely friendly. They could probably look into the water pressure for the shower which was light but not a deal breaker. Daily breakfast was excellent. Great stay!

Such a gem of a place both inside and out. The garden spaces were beautiful and peaceful. The rooms and common areas were elegant yet simple. It felt like a European getaway. Joe the manager was friendly and accommodating. I will definitely be back
