The Dean Cork

We loved the beautifully designed and decorated rooms, We enjoyed an excellent sleep and loved the shower. We particularly enjoyed eating dinner at Sophies. The staff at Sophies were friendly and attentive.

We had trouble entering the hotel and figuring out where we should park. When we called the hotel to get help we found the receptionists English difficult to understand and she was not very helpful, informing us to ask for directions at the train station. In our room we found the fully stocked wall of drinks and treats to be quite dusty and cluttered. On a number of occasions we called the reception from our room and got no answer after a minute or so of letting it ring. On one occasion we ordered coffee to our room in the morning and an hour later it had not arrived so we just cancelled it. Although it didn't bother us very much I would have appreciated being informed about the proximity to the train station and the resulting loud noise of trains before I booked my room.

Their room was very modern & stylish, very impressive, super cool!! Great location too, 2 minutes from Cork Kent Station.☘️☘️☘️ I stayed on a Saturday night & the lobby area became a night club like with a great DJ. A lot of happy surprises during the stay & I'd like to recommend to all my friends. I'd like to stay The Dean Dublin too.☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️

There's nothing I didn't like. It's very rare experience.

Cool design, great location, kind staff at the reception lent us an adapter, handled the package we had delivered to the hotel. The lobby smells great :) Train station is really close - 10 min from room to platform, including ticket purchase

Please heat the pool more!!! There is no storage/wardrobe in the room, not possible to unpack. The restaurant is not working all day, during lunch time while having just drinks, we were asked several times if we wanted to order food and when wanted to at 3 pm, we were told the kitchen is closing? It is 18 degrees, no need for a siesta. 15 EUR for a pancake :/

The food was brilliant, the staff were very friendly. Room was comfortable and shower was very spacious. Disney plus and Netflix on the TV’s is excellent.

But very cheeky pricing. Munchies corner is expensive which is fine to ignore but two cans of still water located away from the munchies corner (located on each bedside locker) both cost €3.00 each. Bit cheeky to request €250 euro for a one night stay and can’t even throw in complimentary water like 95% of hotels in Ireland. Another hotel who are money focused.

The Dean in cork is a bigger version of The Mayson in Dublin (we’ve stayed a view times-same owners) It exceeded our expectations in its size and facilities. All the rooms are “super rooms” which are a good size and the hotel itself its 3x the size The lobby was beautiful and the swings were included (like the dean in Dublin) Bed was so comfortable best bed I’ve ever slept on. Showers amazing as always. We didn’t get any food. The staff were okay -not friendly not rude - doesn’t bother us.

The €100 security deposit is a bit excessive. Security deposits are understandable but actually charging it upfront can leave people stuck. I personally didn’t mind but our window was looking at the trains and the noise was very loud but they don’t run at night so if you’re an early riser it’s fine!

Great location. Great vibe to the place. Really good craft beer.

Choice of vegan options was very disappointing. Only choice was a pizza on the dinner menu which was tasty but more options would have been appreciated. The vegan choice at breakfast was oat milk pancakes which were great except on our second breakfast we got our vegan pancakes with dairy!!! Luckily I asked if the ice cream was dairy as if I had eaten it I would have been in big trouble for the day as I can't tolerate milk. It would have ruined our holiday. If a dish on a menu says that it's vegan then it should be vegan. No dairy please!

I love the vibe in the Hotel from the moment we arrived. The staff were amazing - Shane, Saoirse and their team made us feel so welcome. Sophie's Rooftop Bar and Restaurant was fabulous - Helena made our dining experience so lovely. The train on the Hotel's doorstop was a bonus as we went to Cobh on the train and didn't have to move the car for our stay. This is a fabulous hotel that caters for all ages!

Nothing. If I was to be picky I would say car parking but having said that we parked at Kent Station Car Park and it is a just a walk across the car park.

The DEAN was quite a surprise to us! Having been used to the quaint, small Irish experience thus far - the DEAN reminded me of a Las Vegas Hotel - in the nicest way! Very modern, clean and moderate sized room with beautiful bathroom. The appointments in the room were sort of rock and roll ish - hard to explain but very creative and unusual. As an American, I have to say it did not seem Irish to me - although the staff definitely were! Also a wonderful bar/restaraunt upstairs and a nice resting place bar in the lobby. The DEAN was awesome!

Nothing negative to say about the Dean!

Beautiful, well located hotel , super clean , comfortable and very chic . I love the vibe In this place plus staff are all so friendly and early check in was much appreciated. Didn’t try breakfast but next time I will and I’m sure it is delicious. Room was spacious , super comfy bed with bed topper , super WiFi and contemporary design . Everything was wonderful and I love This place and highly recommend it.

Nothing everything was perfect also will try pool , gym and classes next time

Exceptional hotel, the interior design was absolutely stunning! The staff are super friendly and welcoming. The quiet pool and spa were such a treat, with no pre-booking faff to deal with. We had a delicious breakfast overlooking the city on their rooftop bar. We loved our stay and little touches like original artwork on the walls and the record players in the room really made it a stand-out experience.

There is no parking at the hotel, but they did give us a discount to stay in the nearby shopping center car park. This is all straightforward but can be a bit of a walk with your suitcases back to the hotel once you've parked up. Being next to the train station means you hear the honk of the trains when the windows are open, but we didn't mind this too much and it stopped in the nighttime.
