2. Luxurious Setting
The Westbury is a five-star hotel that oozes elegance and luxury without sacrificing the relaxation element of a weekend away. It manages to successfully combine the modernity of The Marble Bar with a more traditional feel in the Gallery Lounge (we just couldn't decide which one we preferred).
3. Their Chocolate Alexander Cocktail
This is the hotel’s Easter-themed cocktail and it is delicious! (In fact, it could be THE best cocktail in the world ever.) The relaxing yet atmospheric Marble Bar provides an ideal setting for a pre or post-dinner cocktail (or three).
4. Wilde – The Restaurant
From fillet steaks (which were cooked to perfection) to tempura of cod to chicken Caesar salad, this tantalising menu caters for every need. The restaurant also boasts an impressive and extensive wine list (always a plus!) to be enjoyed in the relaxing yet intimate setting.
5. Outstanding Service
You will not get better service anywhere. From the minute you check-in to the moment you leave, the staff are attentive, friendly and accommodating without being overbearing. There is also valet parking and 24-hour room service.
6. The Rooms
The rooms have everything you need including complimentary wi-fi, a safe and mini bar. Apart from the practical things, they are nicely decorated with some offering a beautiful view of the city. The furnishings are practical and comfortable (slept like a baby) which is exactly what you want during a short stay.
7. Breakfast
As well as a continental breakfast which consists of everything from fruit salads to muffins, there is also a comprehensive warm breakfast menu which includes a full Irish breakfast and waffles with maple syrup (which are delightful).
Wilde for Easter at The Westbury Hotel is available from 18th to the 20th of April from €490 and includes exquisite chocolate cocktails in The Marble Bar upon arrival, two nights’ accommodation in a beautifully appointed superior room for two people, handmade chocolates on your pillow at turndown, breakfast in The Gallery, followed by a delicious seasonal three course Easter Sunday Lunch in the magnificent surrounds of Wilde –The Restaurant.
