"It was ok. Felt a bit tired in the rooms"

"Hotel is close to the train station and the town square. It’s easily walkable to the Latin quarter, but nice to get away from all that activity when you want to end your night. Galway is a great town for music. Very fun place."

"Absolutely love love love this hotel. This was our second time staying here and will definitely be staying here every time we visit Ireland. The staff, food, drinks, and rooms are all fantastic. I can’t praise this place enough. Rooms are a perfect size, the property is beautiful, beds are comfortable, bathrooms are clean and also a great size. Zero complaints This is the place to go!"

"The only good thing I can say about The Dean is that their decor is nice. However the room despite being called “the cosy” is the smallest uncomfortable room I’ve ever seen. There’s hardly any room at all for your luggage, you’ll be tripping over everything just to go from one end to another. The parking is horrible. It may be a 2 min drive but it’s a 10 min walk, if you’re unable to park close then good luck with your luggage the walk has a decently steep hill to walk up from the parking garage to the hotel. The restaurant is unbearably hot and extremely overpriced. You can hear everything in the halls from your room so a good nights sleep is unlikely. Our bathroom though looked cute at first glance, was janky, the button to flush the toilet wasn’t secure and fell off every time you used it, tiles on the wall were busted, soap dispenser was wearing away and looked gross, the towel heater was broken and looked dangerous. Save yourself and literally stay anywhere else."

"5 stars! Loved staying at this charming and cozy hotel!"

"Hotel is older, with older style and amenities. Rooms and communal areas were clean. It is located a bit outside of the city center and within about a 20-minute walk to the square. There is an onsite restaurant with bar. Breakfast buffet was nice. Staff is friendly and helpful. "

"Lovely hotel centrally located. Historical charm with modern comfort in rooms. Reception desk staff superb — interesting people and very helpful. No low-cost meals on site, but plenty of choices within the block, including bagel shop on corner for breakfast."

"The location was good. It was hard to drop bags off due to the construction and location of the hotel. We tried to check in 20 min early but were told we could at an additional cost. I understand they gave a check in time but this was the only location that tried to get money off of it. I also had to stand and wait 5 minutes for a staff member to come up and assist me. The rooms were plain no decor just a bed and one table."

"Convenient location in Galway. As advertised."
