The Mint bar has turned the former bank vaults into one of Dublin's favorite meeting places (or a place to enjoy a pint of Guinness).
Once a bank, Westin Dublin now holds currency of a different kind. Inside, patrons will find a place to withdraw all sorts of luxuries, from relaxed brasserie dining and serious cocktails, to distinguished rooms and 19th-century charm.
Directly across from the storied Trinity College, the hotel holds 163 rooms, ranging from the Classic Room overlooking the glass-topped Atrium, to the split-level College Suite, boasting an upper office area with private gym and Nordic steam room. Each room, however, treats its resident to a Westin Heavenly Bed, mahogany furniture, and a classically-inspired design theme dignified enough for even the most posh, well … dignitary.
If you've indulged just a touch too much at one of the city's zillion pubs, sweat out the Guinness at Westin WORKOUT Facilities. Afterwards, you'll need some good eats to feed your tired muscles. The 1930's-themed Exchange Restaurant & Cocktail Bar serves duck confit, goat's cheese mousse, seatrout, crispy onion rings, and countless other plates sure to warm your soul.
After (this really has nothing to do with your previous workout … but what the heck), find your way to the cocktail haven that is The Mint Bar (originally a bank vault), where you can get as shaken or stirred as you please.
