we love the Dean!

very welcoming and helpful front desk staff. pool and gym amenities were impressive! Rooms facing the pool/courtyard should be wary that the pool opens early and noise travels! But we slept well.

We loved our one-night stay at The Dean Galway! The room was so cute, love the record player and set-up. Staff was lovely and check-in/check-out process was smooth. The location is wonderful too!
Murphy, 1-night trip

Amazing

I loved the hotel, exactly as described . It was spotless, clever signage . All the staff were outstanding. Pool an gym set up were great. The rooftop restaurant was top notch. I slept so well there. Great mirror shower. Ask for extra coathanger s, as lack of storage was a thing. Treat yourself an stay there.
Terrific signage.

10/10 Exceptional

Rooms are very small, but functional. Location close to town, handy. No car parking on site, & would be an uphill walk with bags from the designated pay car park, but we only had overnight bag, no issue - & it wasn’t raining! €12 for hotel discount parking. Didn’t eat in hotel, bar was nice.

One of the best hotel experiences I've ever had

A really fantastic experience. The hotel is very modern with some incredible facilities and in a great location just 5 mins from Eyre Square. The gym is as good as a gym I've ever seen in a hotel. The staff there couldn't have been more helpful. Then the heated outdoor pool, sauna, steam room and plunge pools really set the place ahead of most other hotels. Really clean and convenient. The room was very small but had everything needed; a very comfortable bed, great shower and TV. It's quite like a modern hotel room in New York or even Tokyo; small but modern. I'll be massively recommending the hotel to everyone thinking of going to Galway and definitely will be back. Other hotels could learn a lot from the Dean's approach!
