Hotel was modern and fun. Parking was a nightmare. Nothing easily accessible and you will be walking a long distance with your bags, hopefully not in the rain.

First time staying in The Dean in Cork, was expecting high hopes, but unfortunately it disappointed me! Given a room that should only be used as a single occupancy room! I felt very claustrophobic and confined! The layout of the room was completely all over the place! Service at breakfast was chaotic on both days! Definitely no WOW FACTOR HERE!!!

Staff were great, hotel is really nice it’s in a great location to walk into the city and far enough out too not be loud etc at night. Our only issue was there was works being undertaken on the railway line behind the hotel and we had to change room, the staff were great about this

Absolutely loved this hotel, already want to return. Room was spotless and the bed was so comfortable. The rooftop bar is lovely and the views are brilliant. Great place to base yourself, a small walk to the main streets and a very luxurious and comfy hotel.
