The Dean has very comfortable and stylish-fun rooms with turntables. Weather you have a view of the city or the train station, it is still quite. The lounge on the first floor is wonderful for writing and working and Sophie's restaurant has lovely food and a fabulous view!

This hotel is great. I had previously stayed in their other hotel in Dublin, so I was keen to get back. The staff is extremely friendly and kind. We had a little issue with our room, as the rail workers decided to drill at 1am and they promptly moved us to another room. The gym is superb, new machines and clean. The pool is nice too. Brekkie and food in general are a bit pricey and not over the moon, but the bar is a great spot to hang around, with nice views from Cork.

Great Location, New Hotel

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Dean Cork! We were only in town for one night and opted to stay at The Dean thanks to its convenient location next to Cork Kent Station. The hotel is very nice, new. The room was small, but functional. We would definitely stay here again.
Lauren, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Loved how convenient the hotel was to the train station and to the pick up spot for buses to/from Dublin, as well as the sightseeing daytrip buses. The rooms and lobby are very well designed and beautiful, with fun touches like Smeg fridges and record players in the rooms. Unfortunately the record player in my room didn't work, and I was told by the receptionist that they are "transitioning to being just for show" which is a nice way of saying "not being maintained". Overall it feels like a very nice hotel that's a few years into its life and those flashy touches are starting to show signs of age.

I stayed here with my daughter and we were super impressed. The beds were so comfortable and the room was spotless. The pool area is fabulous and my daughter did a spin class. It was like a mini retreat. We would highly recommend it 💕

This place was great! New and cool. Our entire group loved this place! We did not hear the train at all. They provided ear plugs if they were needed. They kept our luggage after check out while we explored the city and we easily hopped on the train for our next destination.

Modern, central boutique hotel

Central hotel with a great boutique hotel vibe … if that’s your thing. The bartender should have been as attentive to his customers as he was to his mobile phone.

10/10 Exceptional

Located next to the train station and near buses, The Dean is an easy walk into town. The Hotel is easy to access for day trips if driving. Hotel was clean and staff friendly. There is construction nearby, but we did not notice excessive noise and are light sleepers.
Jane, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

So much space! Modern and stylish, great location and staff was helpful in setting up Black Cab tour (highly recommend). Lots of restaurants right out the doors and walkable to many of the tourist sites. Felt like we were living in Belfast, not just visiting. Free laundry was a nice touch!
Pauline, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Overpriced and overrated

Having heard rave reviews of the Dean, I was looking forward to my stay. We arrived and the check-in was easy. We had booked a super room primarily for the king size bed, yes to look at it you’d think it was a king size, but it was 2 single beds pushed together! Needless to say, the king fitted sheet didn’t do much to keep the beds together, at 1 stage, I thought my partner had fallen between the 2 beds!! The size of the room…cramped… if we had larger suitcases than hand luggage size, we’d be in trouble, even with small suitcases, there was no space to keep them. We came back after the 2nd day to find the room hadn’t been cleaned and had to ask reception at 9.30pm to sort it out. Booked the restaurant for the 1st evening, was nice but after 45 mins waiting for our food, I think anything would be nice. We only ate breakfast on the last morning, it was nice but slightly overpriced. The positives though…The staff particularly at the bar were an absolute pleasure to deal with.

Would definitely go back!

This was a beautiful, modern hotel with comfortable bedding, great food and drinks. Everyone was super friendly. I wouldve given it a 5 star if it wasnt for the handicapped bathroom. We got assigned what looked to be a handicapped room. Even though it was a gorgeously designed bathroom, it wasnt functional for us. There was water everywhere. We had to dry up the floors after every shower. And, the worst thing... theres a full length mirror right across the toilet! No one wants to see themselves fully when sitting in the potty! Other than that, it was perfect.
