The Dean Hotel, Dublin

33 Harcourt St, Saint Kevin's, Dublin 2, Ireland (show on map)

Expert reviews

New York Times review:

“In a six-story Georgian building, this 51-room property bears the distinction of being one of the newest hotels in Dublin’s city center. A tasteful, reasonably priced crash pad for those who want to be in the heart of the night life district.”

The Guardian review:

“Reserved and understated on the outside, unapologetically hip on the inside, The Dean blasted onto Dublin’s hotel scene in 2014. Rooms here look a little as though they’ve been transported from a Brooklyn brownstone and are given monikers such as modpods and Hi-Fis.”

Telegraph review:

“The boutique Dean Hotel, part of a terrace of Georgian townhouses, offers first-class, quirky accommodation in a city centre location. It’s young at heart, with a funky ambience plus DJs at the weekend, and its bar and restaurant are among the city’s most fashionable spaces.”

What guests liked

All you need to know

A major partner of the Irish Museum of Modern Art in 2017, the Dean Dublin is a boutique hotel located in Dublin city center, only a few yards from the Gaiety Theatre. The St Patrick’s Cathedral and Old Jameson distillery are only a few minutes’ walk away from its front doors. The hotel is surrounded by the city’s bars and clubs and guests can easily become immersed in the rich culture and traditions of the neighborhood.

When not soaking up this excitement, guests can relax in air conditioned rooms that include a TV, minibar, coffee machine, electric kettle and private bathroom with a shower, hairdryer and free toiletries. The rooms even offer city views. The property is newly designed with vibrant colors and that vibrancy clearly extends to each room.

On Conde Nast Traveller hot list, the hotel prides itself on separating it’s self from the conventional. It boasts a rooftop bar and restaurant. The restaurant has a 270 degree view of the city. The effect is truly mesmerizing, just as is the entire stay at this one-of-a-kind hotel. This view and city is best enjoyed with a partner and this hotel is great for couples.

Cosy but a little dirty.

Very cosy interior. Beautifully decorated. Friendly and helpful staff. Quiet.

A little dirty: sink was dirty, bed frame was scratched and shower seemed to have just been used before we arrived (the bathroom was very warm and the ground of the shower was drenched).

Very well decorated and a handy location.

Beautiful decor, staff very helpful.

Our room wasn’t in main hotel it was in the town house 2 doors down and you had to walk through reception out of the building through a court yard and into another building that looked out on to a carpark. Room was very small with only a sliding door to bathroom which did not seal.

Fun but some basics were missing.

The location was great and it had a good vibe

The coffee machine in the bar area was out of order for a week and nobody had the presence of mind to get a kettle so that they could still serve hot drinks. The room felt a little battered.

Despite my negative comment it wouldn’t prevent me from staying again, I loved it!!

We stayed in the StJames suite, which was very cool! Loads of space for. our family of four. The room was very clean and all of the staff were so helpful. An amazing restaurant and bar too

Our only downside was the noise level of the surrounding nightclubs hence why earplugs were provided!

Great location, decor, facilities, staff. Outdoor pool, sauna, gym, Sophies bar excellent.

Stayed in the townhouse. Room was lovely - spacious, clean, warm, quiet and with complimentary nespresso coffee, tea and water. Really good gym facilities, showers, etc. for a city hotel and the outdoor heated pool was a really pleasant surprise, as was the sauna. Staff were lovely. Decor was lovely throughout and Sophie's rooftop bar by night a delight.

Sauna should be ready to use (hot) at all times the gym/pool are open. Should provide robes for guests to go from the room to pool/gym.

Excellent stay with great amenities

Great location and facilities. Easy booking and helpful staff. Really nice gym/spa facilities, great bar and excellent breakfast options.

We stayed in both the penthouse and then the hi-fi room. Both could have been cleaner and better maintained (there were quite a few things that were broken - window fixings, toilet seat, taps….). Not a big deal but when paying that kind of price, everything should be exceptional. Also, the foosball table that was advertised in the penthouse listing was missing from the flat.

Great stay- will definitely be back

stayed here for one night in room 407 and I would highly reccomend it, the room was so spacious & very clean. There were also so many nice amenities like a vinyl player & a speaker. The fridge in the room was fully stocked with different bits which was nice and there was extra room to put our own drinks in it! And the bath/shower was so good ! We parked at the Stephen’s green Q car park which is about 8mins walk away from The Dean and reception then validated our ticket so we got a discounted rate which was €29. Reception also took a €50 damage deposit fee at check-in but this was refunded back soon after check-out.

I did think it was slightly noisy in the morning with other guests etc walking around & we could hear music at night time but we were on the 4th floor which seemed to be a quieter area so it wasn’t loud enough to be an issue! The hotel staff did also advise us of possible noise disturbance due to the location which is fair!

Excellent value for money

Breakfast wasn’t great cold but service fabulous. WiFi not great in hotel. Overall very good value for money. Keep the window closed, otherwise nightclub music will wake you up. Beds very comfortable. Reception check very professional and had our room ready early. Thank you. Rooftop bar is a gem and lunch was delicious

Breakfast but it’s not a big deal

Very pleasurable, fantastic location & facilities but poor bed comfort and loud noise.

The location is excellent, check-in was seamless, staff are super friendly and accommodating. The drinks and the reception area is fabulous, the room in general is fantastic, very spacious, very clean and excellent offerings within the room. I can’t fault anything except for the bed & noise levels. Overall, definitely an 8/10.

Our only two issues were the noise levels from the neighbouring nightclubs, & the discomfort of the bed. The noise levels from the nightclubs was advised to us upon check in & earbuds were placed either side of the bed, however, I feel this should be something that is flagged prior to booking or upon booking, depending on the location of your room. We stayed in 112 the Hi-Fi King Room, which I presume was a room closest to the nightclubs which didn’t help, additionally it was advised we’d have a city view room, this was not the case. There were fixtures from buildings completely blocking the view. Lastly, the bed, “Hi-Fi King Room” would imply a king sized bed, we discovered it appeared to be two beds put together, this was very uncomfortable as you could feel the split in the bed. There also seemed to be a zipper under the duvet cover which was also uncomfortable, the pillows were not great either and as a result I’m suffering with a stiff neck since. I understand the noise level is completely outside of the hotels control and they did advise us upon check in. However, the comfort of the bed and pillows should definitely be upgraded and if a view is advertised then it should be visible, or similarly to the noise warning, this should be advised upon check-in.

Convenient for a short stay in Dublin

Good location, very convenient for a short stay in Dublin. Nice decorations and vibe, especially in the cozy lobby downstairs.

The room could’ve been a bit cleaner and there should’ve been a warning about the noises coming from the nightclub next door. Staying from Friday to Saturday, I could barely sleep - but at least the earplugs were free…

Top Class

Lovely hotel. Great location in the city . Staff very nice. No problem moving our room

We were told we were in a room that wasn't very quiet as it was above coppers. We moved in the end but wouldn't fancy paying the money and then not being able to move rooms. Luckily we were able to

Great location for a short stay

Very easy check in check out process lovely friendly staff for both. Bar quite small and with Christmas party standing in front of it getting to the bar was difficult so we went across the road to ivy gardens bigger bar and even though there was quite a big Christmas party still loads of room. Very pricey dinner and breakfast so ate elsewhere. Loved the location

Bar too small and food too pricey

Beautiful but nosy construction next door

Hotel is absolutely gorgeous, staff are so intentive and friendly, beautifully decorated rooms and so comfy. Less then a 5 min walk to Stephens green, lots of available amenities in the hotel itself

There's construction going on beside the townhouse where we stayed, im a heavy sleeper but we were woken up by drills and banging at 7 in the morning.. that was the only downside to the gorgeous hotel

It did the job nicely for a night!

Very friendly and helpful staff. Great location and really nicely decorated

The room and bathroom were not thoroughly cleaned, there was quite a bit of dust in both rooms. The plug in the sink did not work and the room was far too hot, uncomfortably so. I did try to turn the temperature down but it did not work.

Great location.

The noise from Copperface Jack's next door. Coppers goes on till 5am. There were complementary ear plugs left beside the bed when we came back to the room. They actually did help a lot but I feel this should be something that's flagged before booking. It's obviously something that's complained about regularly if they feel the need to leave ear plugs by your bed as standard.
