A big fair play to all involved.

The Westbury has been voted the best hotel in Ireland for 2020 by Condé Nast readers. The Dublin city centre hotel nabbed the coveted readers' choice award for the third year in a row today, beating other delightful spots such as the Merrion, Number 31, and the Marker. Vincent O’Gorman, general manager of The Westbury, thanked voters for their continued support during what has been a trying and turbulent time for the hospitality industry. “We are delighted to have been voted the number one hotel in Ireland by the Condé Nast Traveler 2020 Readers' Choice Awards for a third time," he said. "On behalf of the entire team at The Westbury, I would like to offer a heartfelt thanks to all of our guests for their continued support. In a year that has brought many challenges, we are sincerely grateful. “ This year's Condé Nast readers' choice awards pays tribute to the hotels and guesthouses that aren't just timeless, but reliable. You go stay in them again and again, if you could. Or if there wasn't a global pandemic happening. "If the Westbury were a person, it would be that friend you call up as soon as you hit town," says Condé Nast. "An enduring spot on the city’s scene and the flagship of the Irish, family-run Doyle Collection, this is somewhere that prides itself on its sense of place. "It’s all about location, location, location – tucked away just off the shopping mecca of Grafton Street and perfectly placed to tap into the scene. "Guest rooms are gradually being spruced up and burnished with a lighter, brighter touch, there are killer cocktails and a local crowd at the glamorous Sidecar bar and staff work hard to help guests unlock hidden sides of the city."
