The Dean Hotel, Dublin

Friendly staff, let us use the gym after the marathon so we could shower. Electronics in the room were well known branded (Smeg, Marshall, Nespresso, Samsung), not just cheap generic ones. Also shower had the central overhead source vs arm off the side wall. Location was minutes walk from Grafton Street and good for the marathon start/finish

Only thing really was no early breakfast on marathon day, but hopefully they'll have it next year

Great size room, lovely bathroom, staff, especially in restaurants and front desk were lovely - Dave in particular

Very small sink with no plug and paper cups, only 3 hangers in the wardrobe, soft bed and could feel that it was a zip and link double as no mattress topper to prevent this. Travel cot on initial arrival was awful quality and took a few attempts to get right.

Room was small and the bed was big so only one can walk around it at a time

Somewhere to leave cosmetics etc in the ensuite

Good location. Comfy room. Helpful staff.

Decor a bit wild. Pricey but I guess it's Dublin prices! Only one lift working to the bar.

Heated pool, great travel gym, room was EXCELLENT!

Room was gorgeous and the gym facilities were great. Breakfast was 10/10 too

You could hear all the bars very well, i know it is city centre and it is kind of expected but wasn't expecting it to be that loud.

Super cute hotel with friendly service!

Staff was great Keeping are luggage before check was a great help.

Great location and cozy feel. Absolutely awesome gym and rooftop restaurant and bar

Our original room was just too small. Literally could not unpack suitcases. Room best suited for a single light traveler rather than a couple abroad for 2 weeks. However the staff were quite gracious about giving us a much larger room.

Great location, very friendly staff. The rooms are very clean.

The rooms were a little bit small I could do with a few hooks on the wall

Great location & great amenities

Bad smell in the toilet upon arrival

The location and vibe of the hotel are incredible. Super funky design with cool amenities. Location too is fantastic. Staff was vey friendly so that made the stay nicer

Given the hotel prices are more on the expensive side, I have two things to say: The rooms are really small - I booked a larger room and still we could barely walk around the bed. It was ok considering we only had small luggage so opening it wasn’t a big problem. There are a few nightclubs around and on weekends you l hear the music playing until 3am. We were ok with it and somehow managed to sleep ok, but I think it’s important to consider as for some people it will be a huge issue.

Location, antiques and artwork. Roof top lounge.

Room extremely small, no service unless requested.

Staff were friendly and very apologetic about a room mix up. They were very helpful when we arrived early and we could store our bags after check out. The location is great. We had breakfast, which was lovely but so expensive! The kids loved the bunk beds.

I felt the room needed a bit of a deep clean. Dust and buildup in the desk area. The bathroom looked lovely but on closer inspection the shower was not great. The tiles showed signs of limescale buildup or mildew... Not a deal breaker but I think given how this hotel positions itself I would expect it to be immaculate. We had a bunk bed room which had all the sweets laid out for the kids but find the mini bar prices first because everything is charged for!

Great restaurant options and excellent location

Very noisy at night due to close by night club

Bed very comfortable. Decor

Only one disposable cup in room so when I had one cuppa , if I fancied a coffee no cup avail . 😒

Staff are so friendly and helpful and the hotel is in a great location. Restaurant is amazing with great views of Dublin City.

There was loose/broken floor tiles in the bathroom which was annoying but overall it was fine.

Location is good, cool building

Our room faced nightclubs on the street and it was so loud till 3am, there was earplugs next to the bed so it’s a known issue and we would have never booked those rooms had we known, we’ve come home really tired.

Nice hotel, beautiful and spacious room. Everything was good, not much to add. The street the hotel is on is busy with lots of bars and clubs, but as I was visiting during the work week, it wasn't noisy at all. Nice, easy walking distance to the city centre. Really really good gym in the basement of the hotel (including sauna and a small pool), which guests are allowed to use for free.

Balcony Room was Excellent with a Spacious Balcony

Dinner Menu did not have a varied choice

It was perfect for what we needed. A friend had paid for a bottle of Prosecco for our room, which was well presented

Great location. We were worried about the noise from the nextdoor club but staff moved us and it was so quiet. Excellent gym facilities.

Big club nextdoor and some rooms overlook it

Very well located

Equipment is not that excellent. Restaurant is quite expensive and menu is a bit disappointing.

Central location, roof top restaurant is a nice place to eat with a view

Really tasteful hotel with a young vibe

Noise from surrounding night clubs.

Great location, lovely hotel, great decor. Loved the pool, the rooftop bar. All very stylish. It’s our second time there.

Some of the staff (not all) were very arrogant and/grumpy which is a huge pity and totally unnecessary. Pity, especially as they try to sell the ‘Dublin touch’.

Staff were very helpful Room décor was lovely Balcony was a nice addition Beautiful big bed and was very comfortable Drinking water (in tetrapacs) and toiletries provided (including hair conditioner) Heated radiator for towels. Facecloths also provided. Late check-out of 12 noon as standard

The door into the bathroom was broken (had came off the runner) and even when fixed, didn't close properly and just rolled open again. No lock on bathroom door. Whilst balcony was a nice addition, it was beside and overlooked a building site. No mugs were provided for tea/coffee, just two paper cups holding the teabags and sachets that we had to empty and clean before use. The cups didn't fit properly in the espresso machine. Proper mugs and cutlery would have been much nicer and more sustainable than disposable cups and spoons.. We didn't get to experience the rooftop restaurant as it was fully booked..

Great location for getting around Dublin. The staff there are very friendly and helpful. The rooms are very comfortable and nicely designed. There was an issue with our room and they did their best to resolve it for us.

Nothing

Nice clean and quiet

Nothing - I enjoyed it

Convenience to city centre

Disposable cups for tea/coffee

Staff were excellent especially reception who were chatty and interested in getting to know us and purpose of our visit. Location near Stephens Green is excellent, the bar is fab. The hotel is modern and welcoming, rooms were clean and beds were comfortable

The noise level in the bedroom was unbelieveably loud even when I used the earplugs supplied, I got out of bed to check was the window closed, it was. I had read the reviews and was aware of the noise from outside however I hadn't realised it was next door to a nightclub/late bar with outdoor beer garden area.

Great location. Friendly staff

Despite having booked far in advance we were allocated a tiny room with bed against the wall and no space to place any personal belongings. Felt like we were in student accommodation.

It’s beautiful, contemporary and cosy.

Very rude staff members. Unsure if they were incompetent or just extremely rigid. But their manner was very unpleasant. The person who checked us in and checked us out was lovely however a this was a relief. Our issue was with the staff member we spoke to over the phone re our booking, and one, perhaps the same person who was checking out someone else at the same time that we were checking out and it was so hard not to overhear and to ignore how horrible she was to this guest.

Clean, staff were great!

Drilling in the room next to us at 9am which was a pity

Location

Small rooms and tiny bathroom

Very noisy!

I was disgusted at the price of the hotel and to not include breakfast in that price is outrageous, €520 for one night!!! Its very unfair to up the prices of rooms just because of a few concerts!!! Most people I know would go for weekend breaks in ireland if the prices were reasonable. Your hotel is fabulous but not to include breakfast at those prices , is just pure greedy. I won't be staying in it again and won't be recommending it for those reasons.

The beds were incredibly comfortable, and even though the hotel is in a busy area, the room was surprisingly quiet. I had a great night’s sleep and would absolutely recommend staying here.

The room was very comfortable, but the cleanliness could have been better. There was quite a bit of dust on the furniture, and I noticed some leftover makeup from a previous guest on the side of the bed. That said, the bed itself appeared clean and tidy.

Very nice, comfortable hotel

Very Expensive.

Complimentary use of the fab gym and hydro pool was superb. Really cosy beds!

Next to a busy night life street - the hotel provided ear plugs but it does get noisy.

Fantastic gym and staff were great

I didn’t realise it had a club on the rooftop so my first room sounded like it was in a DJ booth! So I downgraded my room to get a quieter room. I would say it was a great place, but maybe meant for younger party ge-ers

No breakfast.. we were late - after 11am

NA

Ideal location, clean and bright rooms, range of facilities, helpful and pleasant staff

Our townhouse room was in a separate building (very close, two doors down the street) to the main hotel. This wasn’t a major issue, but it would have been nice to know in advance.

Beautiful spacious room. Staff were so friendly and helpful.

Nothing

Very comfortable room, cozy bed. I was able to check in early after a long flight which was very helpful.

Even though rooms are small, they are quirky & funky rooms. Restaurant upstairs is fantastic! Staff helpful & friendly.

Not all levels have a lift. If you have heavy luggage, you don't want the stairs!

Not the best value for money but it was a busy sports weekend in the city so expected prices to be higher

Right next to nightclub, ear plugs required on weekend!

Central, great staff.

Room was comfortable. The bathroom could do with refurbishment. Water damage to the door frame and grout was dirty.

Room was beautiful

Nothing
