We stayed at the Dublin Dean during a recent trip to Dublin for the Navy vs Notre Dame game. The location of the hotel is great, 10-20 min walking distance to all the local attractions, plenty of pubs and restaurants nearby. The rooms are very small. so make sure you ask for a room in the Townhouse part of the hotel, which has bigger rooms (still small by US standards) and is located just adjacent to the main part of the hotel. The Townhouse has its own bar which is nice and the main hotel has a nice bar on the first floor. There is a rooftop restaurant called Sophie's which is good and has a great view of Dublin. The downside was the noise, there are a few night clubs nearby and a large construction site, minus that a good hotel overall. Staff were very accommodating. …

We stayed at the Dean Dublin for 2 nights at the end of our summer vacation and really enjoyed our stay. Service was impeccable, especially the Night Manager (whose name escapes me, sorry!) who take great care of us. Room was very comfortable with big windows that let in ample amounts of natural light. We also had a record player in our room with some old records that we took advantage of. Location can't be beat. Short walk to St. Stephen's, St. Patrick's, Trinity University, Temple Bar, etc. We never had to take a cab once except to get to the airport! Will definitely stay here again!

I went to the Dean Dublin to celebrate an anniversary with my partner. When shown to our room there was keys from previous guests lying around and the back of a TV stand was left on a side table. There was no air conditioning as it was broken so during the night we were left to open the window which opened onto coppers nightclub and couldn’t sleep with the heat or noise for hours. I also had a shower during the day and the condensation from the room made us open the window to the freezing cold. On top of all this the Tv didn’t work, when we asked could it be fixed they said no and shrugged their shoulders. When we arrived back from dinner both of our room keys stopped working also so we had to ask the rude and entitled man at the front desk who didn’t say two words back to us when we asked. Our experience with this hotel completely ruined our anniversary and we would strongly advise no one to stay here.…

I have stayed in The Dean previously and since I was last here they have extended the property to include additional rooms in the building next door, The Dean Townhouse. These rooms are brand new and beautifully decorated. They are also very quiet! When you arrive you check in at the main reception in The Dean and they will take you next door into The Townhouse. The Townhouse itself does have a small reception desk with a host to assist if you need anything. There is a also a small Bar that's open from 4pm that includes an outdoor courtyard seating area. The Townhouse is ideal is you love the style and vibe of The Dean but your after a quieter stay, shielded away from this lively and central location in Dublin. Next door you have the stunning Sophie's Rooftop which is also where you have breakfast. Breakfast is a la carte and prepared to order which is always my preference over a buffet. The bar in the lobby of the main reception is also lovely and does takeaway coffee. I'm a huge fan of Power gym, the equipment is really top of the range and it the best gym in a hotel I've ever seen. They also have spin and boxing classes that you can join as a hotel resident. I didn't use the outdoor pool or thermal suite but what a lovely addition to have as part of your stay. Thank you to the lovely team at The Dean, I had a really lovely few days staying with you as a solo traveller.…

Great location in Dublin. We stayed stayed in the Townhouse end. The room was very comfortable with nice decor. It was also quite with no noise from nearby nightclubs. Tea and coffee facilities were in the room, but no coffee, tea, milk or cups were provided. At checkout, staff advised this was an error. Also no water provided other than a 500ml bottle in the mini bar fridge which had to be purchased. After check in, rang to make a booking for lunch but was left on hold until we decided to hang up and go elsewhere for lunch. Nice breakfast, with a great view of Dublin. Though unfortunately, overpriced and quite basic for what you get.

A mixed boutique hotel experience. Has a nice breakfast made by order from card served in roof-top restaurant with amazing view and nice staff. Also recommend dinner there - great vibe. Also great fitness center with a lot of exercise choice. On the other hand rooms are dirty, cleaning is not consistent and rooms are not maintained well at all.

This hotel has a serious problem with noise disturbance. The owners of The Dean should not be listing or selling rooms where the occupants are denied the basic right to a room which enables uninterrupted sleep. A small, almost hidden warning on their website stating that they are located next to a night club which “can be noisy” is not sufficient - it should be more explicit and state that sleeping is impossible. They should stop selling rooms and sort the problem ASAP. I have no idea how they got building regs approval or consent. The noise situation is an abomination - some staff are deeply apologetic and helpful whilst others shrug and just don’t care. On the plus side the gym, sauna and small outdoor pool are super !

Thanks for the feedback Johnny - we appreciate it. Apologies for the noise disturbance - we appreciate it can be challenge if you aren't out late yourself. We always do our very best to get the room assignments right on check in or deliver a practical solution when we don't. We are glad at least our gym pool and sauna hit the mark. I appreciate you may not wish to return but please do let us know if your circumstances change. We would be gracious of any future opportunity to return some value to you at the best terms in the quietest room, showcasing the best of what we do. All the best, Dave

HELL! I read some of the reviews about the the noise but thought people were exaggerating… I wish I’d listened. We went for dinner then headed to bed 10.30ish I might as well of been inside the nightclub I could sing along to all the songs even with earplugs in… I have stayed in hostels within nightclubs and they had better sound proofing. As I lie here I am trying to work out where else I can stay instead of here. DO NOT STAY HERE. Cute rooms but the free condoms should of been a sign…

Could could be good. However, noise from night club is god awful. I can not understate this enough. Do not book if you expect to slept. I genuinely never leave a negative review even if a hotel is below par. But honestly this hotel has such a problem, it is so close to its neighbours in the form of night clubs that it makes it impossible to slept. The fact that they are aware of the noise but seem not to want to do anything about it emir at least be honest about it concerns me. They are deceptive at best, dishonest at worst about the noise. Receptionist was seemingly helpful but remains to be proven before we ask to be moved. Honestly, not worth the money paid for the noise and lack of slept on first impressions.
