Overall, The Dean was a lovely hotel to stay at. We were very impressed with our room and the general "vibe" of the hotel. We enjoyed a light dinner and drink in the Elephant Castle bar and breakfast was okay up at Sophie's rooftop bar (although a bit expensive).

Restaurants were nice. Rooms were not very clean and really small. Hard to store luggage and toiletries. Right on main road. No parking available - public .5 miles from hotel. Expensive for these limitations.

The room was comically tiny. We couldn’t even open our luggage. For the price, I’m amazed at how small the room was. The double bed barely fit 2 people

The staff and building is beautiful- the rooms are tight and walls are super thin. They put a full size bed in a closet like room. Bed was all the way to the wall so could only get in from one side.
