    Our only minor complaint is that the bed is super soft. We prefer a harder mattress but we realise that this is just a personal preference.

    We had a lovely stay at Clai Ban. It’s a lovely BnB that makes you feel like you’re at home. The room was very comfortable with all the required amenities. We even had a view of the ocean. The breakfast was great and the hosts are extremely friendly and was happy to provide us with some recommendations. The location is perfect! Close to the harbour, restaurants and bike hire stores. I would highly recommend staying here. Our only minor complaint is that the bed was super soft (we prefer a harder bed but we realise that this is just a personal preference).

    Brantley was an outstanding host-gracious and accommodating in all respects. There was a minor gale when I arrived (Ireland in February), and he met me right at the door and showed me in. Even offered to drive me back to the airstrip when it came time. The room was clean, warm, and exactly as advertised. Perhaps the best part was the breakfast Brantley made and served—a full Irish breakfast with a side of great conversation. He taught me about the Irish language and answered all my questions about life on the island. I had time to stay on Inis Mór only one night, but it was just enough to make me keen to return for a much longer stay. No better place to stay than Clai Bán.

    Had a cozy stay at Clai Ban with an amazing Irish breakfast giving a homely vibe. The location of the stay was quite ideal for travelling from the ferry port. The host was very welcoming and cheerful. Wonderful experience throughout!! Thank you.

    We loved everything about our stay at Clai Ban. Bartley and Porter are great hosts, the breakfast was very good, room very big and clean, bathroom the same. We didn’t really use the wifi too much but it was pretty fast. The location is perfect because it’s only 500mt from the port and 100mt from the best pub in Inishmore but still very quiet.

    This is a small issue, but I feel a duty to mention it…. Whilst checkout was at 11am we felt some implied pressure to leave the room, if not the premises, as soon as breakfast was over at about 9.30. Maybe I am a little too sensitive but I am still recovering from an illness and really needed a little more rest this morning. I went back to sleep for an hour actually. I am 73 and my husband is 75. He recently had major surgery. We were not catching our ferry till noon. We were not farewelled from the house with any warmth when we left just prior to 11. Perhaps the departure would be better set at 10 if 11 creates inconvenience for the business owner. He had been very pleasant up to that point.

    Great location near the port. Terrific hotel next door for dinner. Freshly cooked breakfast.

    The place it’s cosy and nice. The rooms were comfortable and clean. Located near a pub and very close to Kilronan. The owner was kind enough to do us the favor of preparing the breakfast before 8:30 am because we had to leave early to get the ferry back to the mainland. Absolutely recommended.
