The Westin is in one of the best locations in the city, halfway between the main shopping streets in the north and south sides of the river Liffey. I have stayed here several times and could not fault it. The service is always friendly and professional. The rooms have always been clean and well laid out. Breakfast is good but a bit on the expensive side.
Its not a 'wow' hotel, but it is a good option if you are staying in the city and I have got several good rates from booking over the web.

The Westin's web site boasts of their "Heavenly Bed" in each room.

It's more like the Hellish Bed. While the mattress is the pilllow top style, they are so weak that you roll towards the center. I had to hug the edge of the bed to get any support.

This wasn't a fluke. We were in two different rooms (two floors apart) during our stay and both beds were a nightmare.

Plus, many staff members don't speak English very well, and their understanding of Western culture is limited.

To be fair, the location is great , breakfast is better than average and the staff is friendly and attentive.

Great location in Dublin with great access to Temple Bar and to Grafton Street. We were lucky enought to stay in a Junior Suite which had a great view of Trinity College and superb facilities (see pic).

Staff were also extremely helpful at all times and concierge was able to provide a lot of helkp in organising restaurants and travel. Only issue we had was a problem when we ordered breakfast in our room which ended up being the wrong order and took over an hour! Having said that, the duty manager called to apologise and we enjoyued as complimentary bottle of red wine that night!

Only reservation is that it feels more oriented to the business traveller than to the family but we nevertheless had a great stay.

The Westin Dublin is located in the heart of Dublin, right next to Trinity College. We were able to walk everywhere; the location just can't be beat. There are convenience stores, restaurants, shops, Trinity College, etc. surrounding this beautiful property. Westin Dublin is an old bank, and we stayed in the highest floor in a deluxe room that was a good size. The room was always kept clean. We had a balcony overlooking the city. The staff could not do enough for us. Whenever we requested for something, housekeeping was at our door within 5 minutes. We did not get a chance to eat at the hotel restaurant, so I cannot comment on the quality (there were too many restaurants in the area to sample).
