What a fun boutique hotel! The vibe is fun, quirky, and cozy all in one. I loved everything about this hotel.

Let me start with the Dean is gorgeous and has amazingly high-end finishes and amenities. You will want to enjoy the pool, sauna and steam room - take your bathing suits, such a great way to start/finish your days. We stayed 2 night in Cork, popped over to Galway for 2 nights and returned to the The Dean for our final night in Cork so we had 2 different rooms. Our first room was absolutely tiny and while the designers thought of everything from a turntable with records to a Nespresso machine, they clearly did not think of a place to put your suitcase or your clothes, other than the 5 pegs of the coat rack. No closet is tough. We were also on the west side of the building literally above the train station. I am not kidding when I say you can hear the announcements from the station, they start at 6:00am. We almost requested to switch rooms but we knew we wouldn't be spending much time in the room except to sleep. They provide earplugs but with the window open for ventilation, they did very little to block the noise.
Our second room for our final night was larger which was great but still on the west side and still very loud with train noise. Currently there is a beautiful view from Sophie's (the bar/restaurant) deck but it won't be there for long since a large building under construction will block it. The west side location of the hotel is also a little far esp. if visiting your daughter at UC Cork all the way across town.

Unbelievable hotel, likely one of the best hotel amenities I have ever stayed.

Finding a park or place to Checkin was very difficult and created significant stress - finally had to illegally park in front of hotel to be told we had to circumnavigate the route again to get parking in the rail station car park - whole experience terrible and they don’t post any tips for guests
Otherwise hotel nice but on the train line so noises from 6.30am
Good beds and room was great
Guy on reception very nice but clearly gets grief over parking and no one to help with bags if you needed it
Overall good hotel but if you are driving ring first for directions

We had a great stay at the Dean in Cork. The hotel was an experience in itself, we appreciated the interior details and friendly staff.

Nice hotel. Let down mainly by the poor restaurant Sophie’s.
3.0 / 10.0
The hotel itself was great. A great visual asthetic and the amenties were top notch. However, we were put in a room next to the room where the hotel hosts wedding receptions and it was incredibly loud. Although it appeared that there was a buffer area, it did absolutely nothing. It felt like being outside a nightclub until midnight. For the next hour, we could hear the staff vacuuming and cleaning, even while wearing ear plugs. We called the front desk at 11:20 pm about the noise level and were told it would be finished in 10 minutes, it was not. We brought it up again at check out and were offered a sorry. A disappointing experience especially paying $400 CDN to not have a restful night.

Excellent staff. Wish breakfast was included - I had thought it was when I booked but the coffee van outside the door was nice. Terrific gym - well equipped and nice staff. A small hike to city centre but close to lots of great pubs etc. Hike was not too much. Loved how close The Dean Cork was to the train station...super convenient.
Would stay there again happily.

The hotel is beautiful and so is the rooftop terrace in the restaurant. The place has a really cool vibe and the rooms are very well decorated and clean. My room backed onto the train station which was very loud. The staff at breakfast really let the experience down, with me asking 3 different people for a coffee and 2 different people for the bill. I would have overlooked it had it of been busy, but the restaurant was nearly empty. It wouldn’t put me off staying again but something I would factor in if I was short on time in the morning.

Lovely clean hotel, instantly feel relaxed when you walk through the door. Great facilities, huge shower and the pool and sauna/steam is easy to book and a great little place. Nice touch to have a little cocktail by the pool. Its also very easy to get around, with the train station right behind and within walking distance of all the bars and restaurants. We had no trouble with noise and slept soundly on the nice soft bed.

Beautiful hotel. All was great, other than the train station right next to it made it a little noisy for sleeping

The Dean Cork was such a special stop off on our family trip to Ireland and we loved it here. The bar and bar staff were EXCEPTIONAL, best whisky sour I've ever had, in my life! The rooms were beautifully decorated, comfy, cool and chic offering a quiet safe haven to rest our heads at night. The restaurant was lovely, with views of the city area and the food and drinks were delicious. The staff at the restaurant was also amazing. The gym, pool and sauna areas were the piece de resistance and truly completed our wonderful stay, having a place to lounge and hang out was lovely and the merch was cozy and well made, I love my The Dean hoodie. This hotel was everything and more and we honestly can't wait to come back. Thank you!!!

10/10 highly recommended. Very modern, chic, and stylish hotel. Gym, sauna, heated pool, snacks, robes. Really checks off the vibes. Extremely clean, lovely restrooms, comfy beds. Location is great. 6 minutes walk away from the main Cork train station and 6 minutes walk to the aircoach bus stop. If I had to fault, there was some noise but never too inconvenient or bothersome. Overall would absolutely stay here again!

The hotel was very nice! Clean modern feel from the lobby to the hotel rooms! The showers were incredible! Staff was helpful and friendly. Great location in the city east to walk to everything and right next to the metro! Rooftop bar was great for the brunch we did and drinks were very tasty! Would recommend this hotel to those traveling!

Noisy room next to the railway line. Were told no trains after 11 or before 7, when we complained about the room. This was not true first train was at 5:40 and you would have thought it was in the room. The bed was also noisy and creaked loudly with every movement. We did complain but there were no other suitable rooms.

We were nervous about the parking but it’s so close. Maybe one minute walk, it was not a problem or inconvenience at all. We absolutely loved this hotel. The rooms were perfectly clean. The staff was so friendly and helpful. I hope we get to stay here again.

The music at night when checking in was waaaayyy too loud. Almost considered canceling our reservation. Felt very club ish rather than hotel feeling. The hotel is beautiful and clean. Music ruins it. Couldn’t even hear front desk staff trying to talk to us.

Absolutely amazing hotel with beautiful decor, we were very impressed with very unique room style. Service was amazing, roof top bar had an amazing atmosphere. The only thing is that the hotel mentioned that the pool was adult friendly but there were kids in there.

Our room had a broken Pictureframe on the wall and the shards were still on the floor. I asked the Reception to clean the room properly. Thankfully we could change the room immediately. The next day the cleaning stuff forgot to clean our room (?!)… Again we had to ask the reception… We liked the hotel but these two incidents were a bit unnecessary.

SUPER SMALL ROOM! I had to scoot to the end of the bed to stand up…14” between bed and wall.
Great area and parking is next door at the train station and costs €9,50 for 24 hours. The restaurant is very trendy and dinner for 2 with 2 cocktails came to €105.

This place is not for quiet stays! The staff was friendly, the place was clean and well kept, the decor fun, but it's not quiet. Its next door to the train station. Wasn't bad last whistle blew around 10pm. And the morning I didn't hear much from it. The noise comes from the gym attached. I was on the first floor and the gym was on the ground floor. You could hear in the room and corridor the music being played from the gym class. I called and said last class ends at 8pm. At 8:45am they were back at it. If they put you on the first floor, get a copy of the class schedule so you know when to expect loud music in your room. I like a quiet place to sleep in, this is not it. They do give you free earplugs on the night stand if it's any consultation.

A great one night stay in a modern hotel. Close to the city centre and next door to the railway station. Buses from the airport stop only 1 minute away on the same road.

Parking in a nearby lot which is walkable and reasonably priced. Excellent hotel with excellent amenities especially the gym, coffee shop and bar. shower was amazing. Staff is helpful. there is a train station on one side of the building, if you are a light sleeper consider the opposite side. Would definitely recommend staying here. The decor of the rooms with record player is pretty cool.

Funky industrial interior - nice rooms and great shower
Music in reception was very loud on Saturday night - could be heard in our room on 4th floor so had to sleep with earplugs!

Fun and up beat vibe. Music in reception was a bit loud on the weekend, but the place was good fun.
6.0 / 10.0
I did not expect the noise level from the train. I think if if you have to offer ear plugs then the noise level should be disclosed when making reservation. I would not have booked there if I had known this.
