The Dean Dublin – Turntables, Tower Records, and Total Vibes
A Playful, Design-Led Escape in the Heart of Dublin’s After-Hours Scene
More Than a Stay, It’s a Soundtrack
Tucked into the pulse of Harcourt Street’s nightlife scene, The Dean Dublin is a boutique design hotel that plays loud and lives large. This isn’t a retreat from the city—it’s a full-throttle immersion into its creative spirit, combining bold interiors, music-infused energy, and a love for local culture that’s impossible to fake. From vinyl turntables to rooftop cocktails, every detail invites you to engage, play, and stay up a little later.
Design – Irish Soul, Rock ’n’ Roll Attitude
Rooms range from compact crash pads to the sprawling Penthouse Loft, all wrapped in a design aesthetic that’s equal parts urban edge and curated cool. Expect Rega turntables, Marshall amps, SMEG fridges stocked with Irish snacks, and Nespresso kits for the morning after.
The design is fun, tactile, and unafraid to make noise—think bold graphics, custom art, and velvet tones softened by natural textures. The Penthouse Loft pulls out all the stops: 65” curved TV, gas fireplace, private bar, Ploum sofas, and even a foosball and poker table for post-dinner chaos.
Atmosphere – Loud, Local, and Lighthearted
The Dean doesn’t whisper—it roars. It’s deeply connected to Dublin’s creative and nightlife scene, attracting musicians, artists, and energy-seekers. Lounge with a cocktail at the lobby bar, groove to a live DJ set, or head up to Sophie’s, the rooftop glasshouse restaurant where 360º city views stretch to the Wicklow Mountains. Whether you’re starting your night or ending it, The Dean is always in the right mood.
DNA Hotels Verdict
The Dean Dublin is a love letter to late nights, loud records, and local culture. More than a boutique hotel, it’s a stage set for your city experience, where design and debauchery meet in the best possible way. For travelers who want energy with their elegance, this is Dublin turned up to 11.
