West End is an electoral ward of the London borough of the City of Westminster, in the United Kingdom.

The ward has existed since elections to Westminster City Council that took place on 4 May 1978. It is named after the West End of London, which covers a wider area of inner West London.

It lies in the east of the borough and since 2022 broadly covers the neighbourhoods of Mayfair, Soho, Marylebone immediately north of Oxford Street and the section of Fitzrovia in Westminster. The boundaries of the ward were revised in 2002 and 2022. From 1978 it returned two councillors and since 2002 has returned three.

For elections to Parliament, West End is part of the Cities of London and Westminster constituency.

Notable former councillors for the ward include Nick Boles, MP for Grantham and Stamford from 2010 to 2019, and journalist Glenys Roberts.
