The new Look & Feel of the Westbury Hotel.
.. and don't miss our Special Offer!
With the appointment of their new CEO Bill Walshe, who joined the long-established Irish JURYS Doyle Hotel Group from Dubai's luxury hotel group Jumeirah last year, considerable developments have been going on within the group... The Westbury, one of the landmark hotels in Dublin, a celebrity hot spot, and, one of our favourite 5-star hotels, has recently completed the latest phase of a multi million euro refurbishment with the opening of  Wilde - The Restaurant. The complete redesign offers a more contemporary interpretation of the classically elegant surroundings that the hotel is famous for. Here are some of the Westbury's unbeatable Unique Selling Features:
  • Location, location, location - you can't get more central in Dublin. Just off Grafton Street, the most fashionable street in Dublin.
  • All bedrooms have just been refurbished and are the ultimate in luxury. They are spacious, bright, with extravagant linens, and all these gadgets that important people need nowadays (Ipod docking stations etc.)
  •  The new Marble Bar is a triumph of contemporary luxury design, and very sexy. Perfect for a nightcap.
  • Do you like art? Look no further. The Westbury features a significant collection of Irish art, on display throughout the hotel!
  • Celebrate! Gala Dinners for up to 200 pax in the heart of the city.
  • People. Having been in the hotel industry for over 3 decades, the Jurys Doyle group obviously knows its job. However, there has been an undeniable "wind of change" ever since Walshe has taken over. Coming from the Jumeirah group, he successfully adapted new Management Styles, he invested a lot in training people, he re-wrote the breakfast menu, and appointed a re-known Michelin star chef as a consultant for overseeing the change process. These are all just a few examples to show you how meticulously everything has been planned and set for action. And in the end, it's the people that give a hotel the real 5-star feel.  
We are celebrating their new "look and feel"
with a special offer (Exclusive to WTG):
EUR 125.00 B&B per person sharing   EUR 100.00 single supp 

Valid from May 01 2008 - Dec 31 2008, subject to availabilty

Unique dinner experience in Dublin.

The Sensory Dining experience is perfect for a team bonding night or as a company party, providing a novel and exciting way of enjoying your food (once you have figured out what it is!) as well as giving you and your staff an innovative insight into each other's tastes, perceptions, acuity, and ability to describe and discriminate!
Sensory Dining is designed to heighten your awareness of the flavours, smells and textures of the food put in front of you by removing the sense we all rely on the most - our sight. Throughout the evening diners are blindfolded and have no prior knowledge of the dishes or beverages on the menu. Adding to the spirit of mystery, the host for the evening will guide you through the courses giving enigmatic descriptions about what is next to hit your palate.

 

News from the West of Ireland
 

For some, it's the perfect place to settle back with a book.. for others it's the inspiration to write one.

 

Ard na Sidhe is a delightful 18 Bedroom Victorian style manor house, built by Lady Gordon in 1939. The house is beautifully situated on the shores of Caragh Lake in the scenic county of Kerry in the South West of Ireland
