The Dean Cork, is a great place to stay. We found everything so convenient and just a short walk away. Th staff is so kind and friendly. I would not hesitate to book again. Really enjoyed our stay.
This is a great hotel in cork. Staff is super kind and helpful. We booked the executive suite and enjoyed how much space we had. This is in a great location, right across from Christchurch and very walkable. Their on site bar and coffee was good too. Would definitely stay here again!
Very clean room, staff friendly and breakfast was very good, and great location close to town and Irish Rail. Didn’t realize that the Dean was in Galway and Dublin would have stayed there also. I know for next time when we go back :)
Great location.Staff friendly, hotel bar and restaurant were very good. Swimming pool was nice to have although difficult to lane swim. Definately recommend overall
We really loved our stay at The Dean in Cork. The hotel had a fun, stylish feel and the room had several great touches. The shower was excellent, the minibar had a great selection, and we enjoyed using the vintage-style radio to connect our phone and play music.
We also stopped by the rooftop for breakfast, which was a great way to start the day. The location was very convenient as well, especially since it was only about a five-minute walk to the train station the morning we left.
Overall, this was one of our favorite stays and we would happily stay here again.
Great place for young couples on city break or mingling professionals. Wouldn’t recommend to older couples or to families. Lounge is a good vibe though table service could be more attentive. Beds are a bit soft for my liking personally. Showers are amazing!
Great hotel, first time staying here. Check in was super easy and fast, pleasant staff. Room was modern, clean and quiet. Great gym facilities. And nice breakfast option with alacarte instead of buffet. In walking distance to restaurants.

Room was great, staff were very friendly and helpful. Loved the tone throughout the hotel, would happily stay again or recommend to friend.
Really lovely and clean room. Friendly staff! We loved it here and highly recommend. The reception is lively at night, like a nightclub, but we couldn’t hear it from our room so no complaints.

Comfortable rooms, nice staff, cute views, close to everything.
Super clean and aesthetically pleasing hotel! Everything is beautiful and carefully thought out. The room itself is a tad bit small but still works! The AC didn’t go below 18c and barely would blow during the heatwave Ireland was having and the drain in the shower wouldn’t drain so you stood in water. Other than that I would still recommend this hotel!
