Just right hospitality: Boutique hotel finds a home in Dublin

27 : 02 : 2015 Boutique Hotel : Affordable Luxury : Dublin

Dublin – When it comes to hotel options in the Irish capital, it can be a bit of a Goldilocks situation – the choices are limited to either business boring or party-crazed hostel. 

But new hotel, The Dean, aims to bring together the aspiration of the former with the spirit, and prices, of the latter.

The Dean offers an abundance of room options. From the budget Mod Pods and Punk Bunks to the more luxurious SupeRooms and Penthouse, there is a hospitality experience for every budget. And in each room, the sharp and contemporary design is featured throughout the space. Following in the footsteps of boutique hotel brand Ace Hotel, The Dean offers record players, Nespresso machines and SMEG fridges stocked with Irish goodies in all of its rooms to add to the boutique feel. 

While The Dean follows an Ace Hotel aesthetic, it is an unexpected hospitality venture for Ireland. But as Dublin’s urban revival continues, the vibrant hotel is a suitable fit.

For more on how cheaper hospitality offers are being redesigned with luxury in mind, read our Designer Bunks microtrend.
