The Westbury Hotel
Just off Grafton Street, The Westbury is one of Dublin’s defining city hotels, combining Irish art, elegant rooms and suites, celebrated afternoon tea, WILDE and The Sidecar cocktail bar.
The Westbury occupies an exceptionally central position just off Grafton Street in Dublin’s Creative Quarter. Trinity College, St Stephen’s Green, Temple Bar, Dublin Castle and many of the city’s best shops are all within an easy walk.
Rooms and suites use a sophisticated mix of Irish and international design, with original artwork appearing throughout the property. Larger suites add freestanding tubs, separate living areas and increasingly residential layouts, culminating in the private P.V. Doyle Suite.
The Gallery is one of Dublin’s best-known hotel social spaces, overlooking Grafton Street and serving a celebrated afternoon tea. Its popularity with local residents gives the hotel a lived-in quality that many luxury properties lack.
WILDE provides the principal fine-dining experience in a lush, 1930s-inspired setting, while Balfes is a more casual all-day brasserie. The Sidecar is a polished cocktail bar inspired by the great hotel bars of the 1930s.
The Westbury is best for first-time Dublin visitors and weekend trips where walkability matters. Its central location is difficult to beat, yet the interior feels sufficiently insulated from the surrounding shopping streets to remain luxurious.
