The Westin Hotel hides behind an historic-listed facade of the former Allied Irish Bank, which was built in 1863. It is the new landmark in Ireland's capital, occupying a block opposite Trinity College. Accommodation features traditional mahogany furnishings, rich, warm colors and golden mirrors. Many guest rooms at The Westin Hotel boast views of the magnificent surrounding Georgian and Victorian architectural landmarks, while other rooms overlook the serene, inspirational atrium, which rises five floors. Eight flexible meeting rooms feature natural daylight and offer the latest audio-visual equipment. The superb location of the Westin Hotel puts the exclusive shops of Grafton Street and Dublin's business district within walking distance.
