The Westin Dublin

Beautiful Bonvoy hotel in the heart of Dublin. The rooms are comfortable, the service is exceptional, and the location can’t be beat. Luis the concierge was particularly wonderful, with excellent advise and impeccable timing. We had a wonderful time, basing our operations from the College Green and stretching out legs all the way to the Karan Isles to the west and Howth to the east.

Yesterday, I had dinner at Morelands Grill and I have to say — the food was absolutely delicious! Every dish we had was beautifully presented and full of flavor. A special thank you to the wonderful Fernanda, who took excellent care of our table. She was amazing, explaining the menu and giving us great suggestions. I also want to thank Sarah and Jiyoung for their attentive and friendly service. After dinner, we went to the Mint Bar, and Abhishek was amazing with us. He suggested a new drink from the menu, and it was delicious! The Mint Bar had live music and a very cool atmosphere — we loved it. Overall, my night at the hotel was a 10 out of 10 — the venues, the friendly staff, the food — everything was perfect. I’ll definitely come back for sure!

We had a fantastic stay at the College Green Hotel. We took an overnight flight and arrived early in the morning. Our room was ready in less than two hours and we were able to get some rest before a busy day. The staff were attentive, kind, and responsive. The room was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the breakfast buffet and had a fun night at the Mint Bar. The hotel is in a great location and walkable to almost every attraction. We would highly recommend this hotel.

I have been to the college green hotel many times before for dinner, afternoon tea etc and always rated it so highly, but this was my first time staying in the hotel. I have to say I was disappointed. It certainly is not a 5 star experience. Our room was comfortable, but absolutely nothing special. We did have a nice view over college green and the shower gel/shampoo smelled beautiful, but the room was just very average. Food in the bar was delicious, staff there were very attentive and friendly. My major issue though with the hotel was the breakfast. We had breakfast included in our rate. When we arrived to breakfast we were seated and informed they couldn’t find any menus. Note this was a Tuesday morning with only 4 other tables occupied. We sat for so long before we were approached with one menu, we then had to ask for coffee. It wasn’t offered to us. We proceeded to order a dish each from the menu, we were not informed this would be charged extra. We waited again for a good while for the food to arrive. It was cold and soggy. I couldn’t eat it. The “hot” buffet was in fact barely warm. You had to queue at a toaster in the corner to toast your bread. I have never experienced a 5 star hotel where toast wasn’t brought to your table. We had to ask for spoons, a knife and fork. Service was quiet frankly appalling for the price paid.

The College Green Hotel is gorgeous, has excellent amenities and could not be in a more perfect location but the service is really where they shine. It was an amazing perk to have them book our rental car for us and have it delivered to the hotel so we wouldn't have to drive (and on the opposite side of the road!) as soon as we arrived in a new country after an overnight flight. The concierge was also amazingly friendly and helpful with all of our questions and requests for help.
