(677 reviews) We had the best stay at the Dean Hotel. I highly recommend. Everything you want to see is a 5-35 min walk. Great for exploring the city. The staff was exceptional and went above and beyond. While visiting Ireland, I found out my great aunt had passed away. I was in need of finding a place to print a picture of her and Flowers. When explaining everything to the receptionist, she helped me with printing off my great aunt’s picture and gave a really great recommendation to a flower shop, and I was able to perform a small funeral for great aunt. I wish I could remember her name. She is a gem and deserves a raise and a bonus for doing what she did. We also really enjoyed Sophie’s (a restaurant and bar) which is on the Top floor and had a blast gabbing with Wayne the bar manager. He made us laugh and was great for conversation. The room was so comfortable, clean and it felt like we had one of the best views of the city. Come here if you want to get a taste of the life and people of Cork.

The bar food was terrible. But it’s a comfortable place to sit and relax.
