Room was very small, cosy as it’s called, lights from the next building were on all night curtains didn’t quite keep the light out so woke up through the night thinking it was dawn; recommend blinds for keeping out light & some privacy as surrounded by high rises office blocks m.

We enjoyed our stay at The Dean. Great location - close to Temple Bar area and other attractions, without being in the middle of it all. Easy access to public transportation and Dublin Express stop at 3Arena.

Room was great with a very comfortable bed. One of the best showers I have ever encountered!

What was missing? Not enough lights in the room. The use of black everywhere increases the necessity for additional lights. We were extremely disappointed to learn that the hotel pool and spa area did not have a cold plunge (from the website it seems like they would have it, but it is only The Dean Galway that offers this).

The hotel is beautiful.
The rooms are disgracefully small.
More like a “ShoeBox” considering €350 for a night.
No room to move round or put a suitcase. Smallest room I have ever stayed in.

Service in the ground floor restaurant was just okay….
Took a good bit of calling to get service and reminders to get what we ordered.

We arrived and checked in ,given room keys which opened the smallest double bed room have ever seen.We thought our room was very warm with the excellent weather,but we soon realised that the air conditioning was not working.Member of staff was called and tried to reset it but ut didnt seem to work .We carried on with our stay and arrived back after midnight ,we had a few drinks in the lounge and went back to room which if anything was warmer.Staff member called and arrived to which he offered a change of room this was at 3.30am.Both rooms had nowhere to hang clothes ,1st room had a very small bathroom which was very dark,second room had a shower in bath but no shower curtain leaving the floor soaked.The door to bathroom was a sliding wooden door which was unstable and no lock ,this bathroom was even darker.Staff members were lovely throughout hotel.Food was amazing and breakfast on top floor was a lovely touch to our stay .10 min walk to Aviva stadium

Loved the modern vibe. Comfortable bed. Room was good size. Only issue was a party in the courtyard one evening. Was audible and quite loud. That said, the party ended at a reasonable time and didn't interfere with our sleep.

Coffee bar was great. Had one dinner at the restaurant. Really good veggie burger (loved the curry spices).

Note: this hotel in not centrally located and a good 30 minute walk to the old center ( Trinity College). This was not an issue for us and we knew ahead of time. Just a heads up for others.

A nice characterful hotel, in a modern part of Dublin. The cheaper rooms are not that big and a bit cramped, but the finish is nice and modern. Not a central location, but it is nicely located on the water and you it is not too far to walk into town. Would recommend.

We stayed here in hopes for a quiet last night in dublin after staying at the other Dean and having a disappointing experience. Benni at the front desk was lovely during check in and check out, we had a pretty terrible experience will service at the downstairs restaurant (3 different servers, 1 which was kind) but incredible service at the upstairs steakhouse. The pool area is much better maintained than the other location as well and I wished we had more time to enjoy it.

Our room was TINY - I wish they would install shelves up high in these tiny rooms so there's at least somewhere to put our bags. Otherwise, functionally it was okay and decently quiet though we seemingly cannot escape the construction noise early in the morning.

Overall, I'd stay here again for the amenities, the quiet area.

I booked the room with a city view and air conditioning and got neither. I can get over not having the city view but having no air conditioning during a heatwave, I cannot let go. I complained 3 times to fix the air conditioning and was told someone will be up. The room was less than half the size of a normal hotel room, with no ventilation and broken air conditioning. I could not sleep during the night with the heat, it was a horrible experience. Customer service from Hotels.com were as useful as handbrake on a canoe, Hotels.com are a joke. The Dean in harcourt street is by far a much better hotel

Absolutely loved this hotel! Only booked it as a last minute thing the morning we arrived but it was so nice and the gym and bars were amazing. Given a free drink to celebrate a new job (the reason we were there), location is obviously out of the city centre but it’s a nice walk into the town anyway. Our room was really small because that’s all the was available but was a good price, in future if we’d booked in advance would go for a bigger room

They had a very loud wedding in the basement and the sound could be heard very loudly on the second floor. It was generally very loud not much sound insulation in the rooms. The gym opens up at 8 on the weekends which is very late for a hotel

Absolutely loved the design of this hotel, and all of the little touches in the decor. The basic room was bigger than what I anticipated from the photos. The pool was small but cute vibes. Loved the variety of restaurants/cafe all on site, with gorgeous views of the river.

The only downside was lack of private parking, but there was free street parking from 1900-0700h.

Would definitely recommend this hotel and would stay again!

The cleanliness of the rooms is unacceptable, especially the bathroom. The bathroom floor was filthy dirty and had what seemed to be blood stains. We called reception, they apologized and moved to another room which was better but still bad. It seems like the cleaning team does not clean the floors and the bathroom tiles are now stained and look dirty. Bring flip flops along if you plan on using the shower which was even worse…..

We found this hotel's design and quieter location to be the star.. so much so that we'll return.

The architecture and design is quite good (save for my comment below) - our room was a very comfortable modest king in the warehouse - with warm brick, lovely parquet floor, wood panel, and polished concrete finishes. Room contained a nice collection of amenities (though note - no iron in room) & TV with full compliment of channels & access to streaming.

A hair dryer is available in the room, but not coupled with a well-conceived outlet location. We've found this to be a common oversight on the Island. Why is it that hotels in Ireland cannot offer an outlet near a mirror? (My wife suggests that not a single woman has been involved in the vetting of Ireland's hotel room design.)

Unfortunately, Ryleigh's rooftop restaurant was closed for a private party at dinnertime (quite honestly, was an annoyance) - thankfully everything in Dublin is walkable & well connected via bus/streetcar. We enjoyed breakfast the next morning overlooking the river.

If you enjoy architecture and design - this hotel offers a very nice option.

Overall the hotel was great. Beautiful, modern and clean. My only negative was the size of the room. We knew it would be small (we chose the Warehouse Cosy room) but it was just too tight. That was on us. We should have booked the next largest room. But the staff was extremely friendly and very helpful. The restaurant was beautiful, with great views, and the food was very good. We were hoping to check out the bar and the pool but we just ran out of time. The location was good for our sightseeing needs. It's a bit of a walk to to the Temple Bar area and other attractions, but we enjoyed walking along the river and through the city, exploring along the way. Didn't have to park since we rented our car after our stay there.

The property is very central and well-maintained. Super friendly staff. The bar, restaurants and coffee shop are all wonderful, and it's extremely convenient to have all the amenities in the hotel. This is one of those hotels that does not have closets, drawers, or hangers in the room. There are pegs where you can drape things from the wall, but that's it. I stayed in a studio room, which I imagine is the tiniest one they offer, and it is *tiny.* This is an awesome location and great amenities if you're planning to be out and about for most of your trip, and you're packing light!

The room is very small with no space for luggages. My husband was very creative to put our luggages under the bed. It was our first time ever. Room had been renovated but not quite functional. The bathroom door got stuck and the faucet is too low. Staffs were super friendly and helpful. Location is good and maybe this is the reason I paid high price for the weekend.

Our room was hilariously small but it was a dream! We picked their smallest room and it was COMPACT but absolutely perfect. The view was just of the next building as they did construction, but who cares. We were exhausted international travelers and they let us check into our room early which was EVERYthjng. We had the best macchiatos in the lobby, too!

The staff is so kind, friendly, and accommodating. Martin, Lali, and Marina were an absolute delight. They accommodated a last minute request and made sure our luggage’s were sent to both rooms. Lali even took my luggage downstairs and bought me a coffee <3
I do recommend having some fans for the rooms with no ac, but other than that everything was clean, smelling good, well decorated and I’d go back there anytime.

Where do I begin? I want to say this hotel is a pig with lipstick on but that would be an insult to pigs. Rooms are moldy, in disrepair, and floors and bathrooms are grimey. Toilet could barely manage to flush some toilet paper even after 3+ flushes. We would wake up freezing because the heater wouldn’t keep running. No fan to speak of so there is mold. However, when the occupants in the rooms above/nearby us showered, our room would fill with humidity to the point where we had to open the sliding glass door to get fresh air (even though we were already cold due to heater issues). Additionally, another effect of there being no fan, while I was blow drying my hair, apparently some silent alarm went off so we had staff banging on our door claiming we set the alarm off for the whole building? Then proceeded to tell me not to sit under the faire alarm while drying my hair, as if I have a choice? It’s one small room and there is no outlet in the bathroom.
The lady who checked us in was completely confused and acted like it was her first day.. on Earth. The bar on ground floor plays karaoke until past midnight, good luck trying to sleep through that. Gym was closed. I could go on but I’m running out of characters. Also, I know this wasn’t a one-off because we were staying here with friends, they had all the same issues, tried to complain and move rooms, and still had the same issues in the new room!
The only pros: bed was nice and comfy, and the coffee shop in the lobby is good.

This hotel was a gem! Tucked away on the riverfront, this hotel was a perfect landing place upon arriving in Ireland for the first time. The bus from the airport was a straight shot and took less than 15 minutes. I thought I would check my bag (which they offer) and explore the city as I arrived in the early morning, and the normal check-in time is not until the afternoon. But Martin, the wonderful human at the front desk, had a room ready for me right away! The rooms are small but have everything you need with over-the-top interior design throughout the property. After a full day of exploring the city, I asked the front desk if there was any way to dine in the hotel restaurant. With their assistance, I was able to score a table on the patio with a view of the river for dinner. Dino, the waiter, was delightful. After the lovely meal, I took advantage of the hotel pool, sauna, and steam room in the basement, which were clean, the staff was friendly, and the changing room was well-appointed. Before returning to my room and crawling into a large, clean bed. I had an absolutely great time from start to finish of my stay!

Funky hotel! We loved it the only slight whinge (note, it’s slight) is that the bedroom was so small that you could only get out of one side of the bed! Also, when the curtains were open the workmen from the building across the way could see into our room. That’s 2 whinges. The location is great. The Ryleigh restaurant is wonderful. We would return but pay for a bigger room.

The Mayson is a fine hotel, but for touring Dublin it is a bit removed so keep that in mind if planning to walk.

The staff tried their best to be helpful, but they also double charged us, gave us incorrect/confusing parking instructions which caused us to get stuck in a parking garage.

It’s very evidently a hotel catered to the neighboring concert arena, not touring the city.

The room a (deluxe dbl) clean and modern......but there was only access at one side and at the bottom of the bed approx 600mm. No drawers for clothes, no wardrobe just a coat rail with 6 hangers. as we were only there for 2 nights we were travelling light, we managed. Room does not lend itself to suitcase travellers. Also floor to ceiling windows, unable to open curtains as building work in full operation opposite. Shower excellent. Bar staff all friendly and chatty (Morgan) a wee gem, gave us a few hints and tips on where to go and how to get around the city, also check out staff were excellent. We had an issue with the TV in our room which was not rectified during our stay, I mentioned it on checkout and Amber and Michael came up with a little apology we could not refuse. If and when we return, I think a larger room will be a must.

The room was great for a one night stay, however any longer and it would have coat a fortune to the lack of parking spaces. If you don't or aren't able to get one of the 5 spots at 25 euros the only other spaces are outside, if you can get one but there's only a 3 hour limit. Unfortunately there wasn't any shower gel in my room, luckily I'd brought my own with me

I enjoyed the steamroom too and all this a walk away from the hussle and bussle of the city. Another plus was the airport bud stops really close by (1st stop) and theres aplenty options for other food or supermarkets nearbyby.

Clean room. Nice thermal suite (not a swimming pool) and well-equipped gym. BUT- very small room at just 15 sqm, so couldn’t get past the double bed to open the curtains. Card slot was behind the door with no lighting to see where to insert the card- used phone torch in the end. And the smoking area for the thermal suite (open air) ir right above the onsen/hot tub, which stank of cigarette smoke mid afternoon. Hotel bar and a pub next door sharing same smoking area. Quiet area generally

The hotel was really beautiful, the decor is lovely and the bed was extremely comfortable. The rooms weren’t huge but they were very well decorated and had everything we needed. The only slight issue was that the water in both the shower and the sink didn’t drain properly, so the shower was flooding and leaving water all over the floor. The hotel bar and coffee shop was great and everything is within walking distance of Temple Bar or easily accessible buses. Would definitely recommend!

Unfortunately, there was a big open vent in our room that was dusty and letting in a draft and noise. There was also some dust in the bathroom. Not much toilet roll and very noisy at night. The room was very small, too and didn’t feel worth the price unfortunately which is a shame because the hotel itself was beautiful and everyone was kind and helpful.

The Mayson was in a good part of Dublin, just around 20 minutes away from \"central\" Dublin. You could easily walk to the city centre, but I found the buses to be easily navigable. The room I stayed in was pretty clean, but I noticed lots of dust on the floor, which wasn't a big issue. It might have just been the time that I was staying there, but I could hear a lot from outside of the hotel and inside as well. However, I would come back despite these minor things.
