Stayed here with my girlfriend for 2 nights. It is pricey, but the service and atmosphere is impeccable. Bartender's a great. Rooms are comfortable, and breakfast was delicious. We really loved the location as well. The stay was memorable. read more

Had a herbal tea in the Marble Bar at the Westbury Hotel, as its the quietest place around for a conference call I had around lunchtime. Bit of a weird experience, the actual tea - 'Morning Star' rose herbal infusion (5 Euro) - was pleasant, but the venue had something to be desired. Of course it looks stunning, but it feels very cold and stuck-up there. Was hard to find a table as most - and I mean about 20 - had 'reserved' signs on them! But the Marble Bar was quieter, although a bit dark for working. The staff seemed visibly irritated that I had my laptop out there, and were constantly asking if I needed anything else. read more

There is something really appealing about The Westbury. I love hanging out here on a Saturday. The last time I did that was when my friend was in Dublin for her hen party and we came here the next morning to have coffee and shelter from the rain. It's not cheap but having said that they will let you lounge around on the big comfy seats and couches all day if you want. So it's worth the expense when you know there's no hurry. I've had a cocktail here too and it was delicious. But I wouldn't expect any less. read more

The location was perfect! Near great shopping, restaurants and the Gaiety Theatre. Check-in was dreadful! I flew in overnight and arrived at the hotel at 5AM. My room was not available because I did not book the night before. Rooms were vacant but not cleaned yet. Housekeeping did not arrive until 8AM. A room was not ready for me until noon. I thought that was outrageous! They had me wait in the lobby for hours after a long overseas trip. I was so uncomfortable. There was no sense of urgency to get a room turned over for me. The woman behind the counter Nicole was not friendly at all. She whispered to the manager in earshot of me that I was waiting for a room, yet there was no courtesy whatsoever. The experience was not good, and set the tone for my entire stay. I'd never go back! read more

So my experience did not start out so fabulous at the beautiful Westbury hotel. Upon checkin my friend and I were directed to our room and it was a handicapped room. We were very upset by this as we did not book that type of room. The room felt as though we were situated in a hospital. Since going back down to the front desk the staff at the Westbury has done anything in their power to make our experience better. Their guest relations manager Joseph has been so kind to us really trying to make us feel at home and comfortable during our stay. Joseph is a wealth of knowledge about town and the history of Ireland. read more

the westbury hotel is grand! best location to stay in dublin city center. easy walking access to everything! i have traveled extensively overseas and this is the first hotel that had charging outlets for Us, european & UK...i was in heaven :) HIGHLY recommend, and i will be back! read more

Afternoon tea at the westbury is an experience. Impeccable service. Make a reservation! Impressive menu of teas and you can have as many as you want! They kept asking us if we were ready for a fresh pot and I felt so guilty ordering each one because I was only able to drink about a cup per pot. We tried 5 different teas and had coffee. Wish I could have bought some loose leaf to take home. Food was great, plentiful. Cakes were ok, a little too fancy for my taste-- interesting combinations of flavors. Box of chocolates to take home made it even sweeter. read more

The bar here is straight out of New York's Upper East side, fabulous lighting and beautiful people abound. Try the delicious 'Westbury Mojito'. A word to the wise, the sandwiches in the lobby are expensive and painfully disappointing. Sve your money! read more

Stayed here for a total of 5 nights, very elegant hotel from a vintage era. It's tucked back in a corner, which proves to provide a quieter stay than some other hotels on the main strip with drunken people passing by and being loud. One particular hotel staff, Mr. Gaynor, was incredibly nice and helpful to us throughout our stay. As a matter of fact, most all the staff was, we arranged a rental car with absolute ease with the help of the concierge. -Pro's Quiet, elegant, good service, location. -Con's Air conditioner stopped working efficiently the second day, the heat was pretty brutal. We had to ask several times until finally the solution of a swamp cooler was brought in to remedy it. We left for other parts of Ireland of a few days, when we came back we were given a room with a perfectly functioning air conditioner so this may have been an isolated incident. The Irish stew from room service could use some work. I would definitely stay here again. read more

Great location on Grafton street. This hotel is pretty much walking distance to everything. The rooms are clean and modern and have nespresso machines which was a bonus. The staff is super friendly and helpful and helped make our stay in Dublin even more amazing! read more

Excellent location! Great hotel with extremely accommodating staff. Would highly recommend this hotel.

luxurious room, staff were extremely efficient and professional. lots of little touches that made our stay very special, the turning down of the beds each evening, the aqua di palma toiletries, walk in wardrobe was defintely a bonus. Not cheap, particular the bar (though dublin seems generally quite expensive for booze). wouldn't stay anywhere else in dublin now - this place has spoilt us. read more

Stayed here summer of 2012 with wife and two young adult sons. It was about the only place in Dublin with two Queen beds for us all to share one room. Rooms were very good, clean and comfortable. A little noisy when the pubs closed, but it is a city hotel. Staff was wonderful and very helpful. Concierge was great. Location is fantastic. Price was very reasonable for high season.I will stay there again, and recommend it to friends. read more

Just spent a week traveling to London, Cardiff and Dublin. I booked a room for three nights at the Westbury after reading several reviews on different sites. This was by far the best hotel we stayed in during our trip. Long days of walking and site seeing were possible do to the amazing accommodations and treatment we had at this hotel. It is in the here of the city right near great shopping, restaurants, temple bar area, Trinity College and much much more. I would highly recommend this hotel for it comfort, the staff was amazing and it's location. The room was very comfortable and rejuvenated each night for another day of exploring. Thank you to the staff read more

We went to Dublin for New Year's Eve. We booked a week at the Westbury Hotel as part of our travel plan and didn't know what to expect. It turned out that the Westbury is in a FABULOUS location, close to Grafton Street for shopping, close to buses and taxis, walking distance to Temple Bar and the tourist spots. Good rates. WiFi in the room, etc. The room was pleasant, roomy and very clean. We ordered room service a few nights. The food was tasty (for hotel food) and service prompt, little pricey but that's expected. Since we were visiting from the USA, we didn't hang in the hotel much, but there is a nice lounge area (with fireplace) and the desk staff was friendly and helpful when we had questions. We'd stay there again when we return to Ireland -- hopefully next time in the summer. Winter was great though, 3 sunny days with blue skies out of the week, and temps weren't bad in January. read more

Jack Fitzsimons was very helpful and so was the entire staff. The staff at the breakfast were amazing and the food was very good. The location was very convenient and close to everything. The room was very clean and so was the bathroom. The lobby was very nice and in the evening we would hang out with family and enjoy. We had a great time. My husband and I would definitely go back to that hotel. read more

While on vacation in Dublin, my friend and I made a reservation for afternoon tea at the Westbury Hotel and we loved it! Not only was the food amazing, but the portions were very large which meant we left full and with leftovers. Our server Tin was very friendly, and took time out to chat with us and made us feel welcome. If you are shopping near Grafton Street you should definitely try Westbury as the whole tea experience made our day! read more

Westbury Hotel - Afternoon Champagne Tea - Hotels Near Me - Dublin, D

5 star service! The doorman, front desk ( Oisin) and others, Bar staff especially Iva from Croatia, and the great dining staff WOW Every person happy to be of service to you. What an incredible team of staff. The hotel is beautiful, perfect location for restaurants, shopping and St Stephens Green. Its great if your traveling with older teens as they can walk around on their own in a safe area. The rooms are typical nothing too exciting but again the staff at this hotel makes it an amazing 5 star experience. The only negative to this hotel is their showers. I would not recommend it if you have any difficulty with knees, or stepping up or down. The showers I felt were dangerous traveling with two elderly parents they could not access them safely. I am not sure if there are different options but may be worth asking if this is an issue. Breakfast was fantastic, ate in both restaurants. Drinks at the bar great as well. I would absolutely stay here next time. Great experience. read more

Afternoon Tea at the Westbury Hotel was absolutely superb. The experience was so phenomenal from start to finish, including the reservation process. Truly one of the highlights of my 10-day trip to Ireland. They reserved an elegant table for me right next to the windows, so I had a great view of the hustle and bustle of Grafton Street below, and a nice proximity to a very romantic roaring fireplace. Oh so perfect. The service was just so fantastic. I was taken care of by what seemed like a small army of extremely nice and extremely helpful and professional servers. We had such nice little chats. Really a delightful staff. They also made great recommendations of all the great tea options, and I thoroughly enjoyed each tea I tried. You can try as many as you like. The champagne was wonderful and the food was quite excellent. Each tier contained multiple delights; so creatively conceived, fantastically executed, and beautifully presented. It was a perfect, charming, delectable food-tasting adventure. If this is the kind of thing you'd appreciate, then you absolutely must partake. Enjoy! read more

Have stayed many times at the Westbury. Room was not up to standards- even though I was given an upgrade. Hotel is no longer five star and needs to be rehabbed. read more

The only reason it gets two is because it's clean and in a good location. We are now two hours past check in and my mother's room is STILL not available. We are exhausted from travel and they can't even return a phone call to the front desk. Another bad mark on our Irish debacle. And get this: finally had to go ourselves and they just stuck her in some random room. Totally unacceptable and quite frankly disgusting for such a highly rated hotel. I would expect that staff would be helpful or at the very least prepare her room immediately. Instead they chose to leave a foul taste and put a damper on this trip. They don't care about customers here...not the American ones at least. And this was painfully and exhaustedly obvious. Also they were strangely uncomfortable around us and often refused to provide simple hotel services they provided for other...let's say whiter...customers. One example is their refusal to exchange money at the desk. It may just be they don't have cash but it was the attitude the staff had with us that was unobserved with other less black guests that rubbed me the wrong way. read more

I was looking for a five-star hotel for my stay in Dublin. I'm not sure how the Westbury got that rating or if there are better hotels in Dublin but it's the worst place I've stayed since I was a broke college student. The location is great - just off of Grafton Street. Great for shopping. And the lounge area is very lively. But overall the hotel is in serious need of updating. The decor smacks of the 70's with lots of drab brown, plush carpeting and cheap moldings and cabinetry. The room was awful, large enough but dark and dank with a toilet that didn't flush. The climate control was faulty as well. The staff were nice but hard to find. I will say that they do a great laundry. If my husband had not fallen ill after the first night we would have left. It was okay for sleeping but you wouldn't want to spend any time in that room. read more

Beware of the "international conversion margin" they put on your bill without your permission! My husband and I ordered tea and scones at the Westbury while waiting for my in-laws to check in after their flight from the States. The server never bothered to ask my husband whether he wanted to pay in Euros or USD, but automatically processed the amount on our credit card in USD, which incurred an extra 3.5% conversion fee. The wording on the receipt-- "the cardholder has chosen to pay in USD"-- makes it sound like they actually gave us a choice of whether we wanted to pay in Euros or USD! From what I understand, this fee goes to the merchant for the "convenience" of allowing you to pay in your home currency. After this experience, we always insist, without being asked, that we want to pay our credit card in the currency of the country we are visiting. Being generous with two stars because the tea and scones were good... read more

The afternoon tea here was a massively disappointing experience. It was my birthday and it was totally ruined. The sandwiches were made with shop bought sliced pan and had processed ham on one of them, the desserts were nothing to write home about and also seem to a bit stale. scones were passable. At €45 each I was really really annoyed by the poor quality and lack of selection and afternoon tea was also not very well presented. I am really very angry about it still. read more

Three days of poor meals has left me disappointed with this place. They don't really have a head chef or any quality control. Shame is it has nice ambience but management needs to wake up. read more

One of the best hotels I ever stayed at. The rooms are nice. The bed is the most comfortable I ever slept in. The staff is amazing, friendly and going out of their way to make you welcome. The afternoon tea is a great experience. I will only stay here when in Dublin. read more

The Westbury is like the hotel time did not forget about. The rooms and common areas are shopworn and the necessary attention to detail (for the price paid) is missing. The staff was very friendly (though not greatly knowledgeable about the area) and the best thing about the hotel. The bathroom fan didn't work and was never fixed during our stay; the fitness center is a complete joke and should just be closed (an Italian language treadmill and 1980s-era stair master does not equal a fitness center); and the holiday decorations on display looked like Ireland's version of after Christmas discounted Kohl's bargain bin. I would suggest to anyone looking for a full service hotel with updated amenities to look elsewhere. read more

Waaaaay over priced. Room is meh . . . nothing special for a 5 star. Definitely would not stay there again.

Overpriced. Rooms are worn and tired, Bathrooms are worse. Common areas are nicer and the staff is friendly. Central location which we found too crowded. read more
