Historic, quirky, and an overall great hotel!
We have stayed here before, and our experiences have been consistently good! My only complaint is lack of coffee either in the rooms, or in the lobby. On very cold mornings, walking to Cafe Nero is not ideal.

Great stay!
Overall such a wonderful, clean hotel and it was in walking distance of so many highlights of Providence. I hardly Ubered. Housekeeping was fantastic and did a great job cleaning my room each day. The only downside was the shower setup. It’s a rainfall shower and only about 4x4 feet so there’s literally nowhere to stand out of the water. Other than that, I lived my stay!

Older Gem Downtown
Charming, well-appointed older hotel ideally located downtown. Our king room was roomy and well appointed. We enjoyed our stay here but guests should know that on weekends the karaoke bar downstairs is loud until about 2am both with with both music and drunks spilling out after closing. Bring earplugs. Also, no coffee service is provided in the room or in the lobby area.

I like staying at the Dean, it is close to the convention center. It’s an old and quirky hotel with a beautiful speakeasy and boutique rooms. Make sure to pay the meter.

This is an excellent little boutique hotel. Not a lot of amenities, but the rooms are clean, neat and stylish in a comfy and classic way. They do have a small lobby with a coffee bar that is convenient. Very walkable area close to restaurants and coffee shops. A good selection for the price.

The Dean is lovely! Clean, beautiful, friendly staff, lovely rooms. They are tiny (though the bathroom is a fantastic size) but for one person the accommodation are perfect. The elevator is tiny and old, but quick and adds to the charm.

Front desk staff was really nice and the area in which the hotel is located is walkable with lots of shops and restaurants nearby and so that was convenient. Although the hotel room was clean, I still found hair under the pillow and above the sink in the bathroom. The bed was comfortable but the room I got was a little small and didn’t really have any places to put my luggage and bags.

Xmas Party overnight stay
We stayed over night for a Xmas party up on Federal Hill. 20 minute walk. We had a suite with king size bed. A sitting area and a flat screen TV. Water in shower was very hot. Cute little speakeasy bar downstairs with Richard the bar tender who expressed a lot of local knowledge. Only disappointment was the coffee bar was not open on Saturday AM. Plenty of onsite parking. I will return.

My stay at The Dean was great !! Super cool boutique property with an old school elevator and cool art throughout. Loved that they had a coffee bar in the morning. Didn’t get to check them out but also liked that they had two bars connected to the property. Everything is very walkable from The Dean and parking right next door on property and also a garage directly next to the building.
