lively decor, good location and great staff. wish we had a chance to use the pool but the bar and coffee shop were lovely. rooms are a little snug if you’ve got a lot of luggage and some towels were a bit beaten/threadbare, those were the only small drawbacks. would stay again!

Great location for visiting Galway. Parking was a bit of a nuisance but guess that may be typical for most city centre hotels. Roof top restaurant was very good and convenient on a rainy and windy evening.

This was a great stay in Galway. The king bed was two singles pushed together, so you couldn’t sleep in the middle due to a big crack, which was quite uncomfortable. Breakfast had great options & I loved the coffee in the room.

I have been in Ireland for a week this is best hotel I stayed in so far. Pool is so fun and hotel is so cute. I was staying in NYX CC Dublin and Hyde down the street but its way cuter here at the Dean. Really enjoyed the Dean the best out of my trip.
