I have been in Ireland for a week this is best hotel I stayed in so far. Pool is so fun and hotel is so cute. I was staying in NYX CC Dublin and Hyde down the street but its way cuter here at the Dean. Really enjoyed the Dean the best out of my trip.

The hotel is well located for walking in to town and the lack of on site parking is only mildly inconvenient. The on site dining and drinking options are excellent, with friendly and attentive staff. The only real negative was the lack of storage space in the room. I would happily swap the quirky record player and mini bar and snack collection for somewhere to put my clothes. There were just 3 hangers on a rail.

Good hotel. Great gym and pool area. Only two improvement areas for me: a buffet restaurant offer for breakfast or less heavy breakfast option and slightly better double glazing on front facing rooms. Rest was great.
