Very basic accommodation, and my was it cold - the heating simply didn't work! Very close to a very nice restaurant though, and breakfast was welcoming and tasty. Can't get my head around how cold we were though!

We wheeled our suitcases up to Clai Ban sans reservation & were welcomed and were shown to room 1. Comfortable room, excellent breakfast, great location. The bathroom was everything you need. We wandered over two driveways to Tigh Joe Watty's for dinner & music. Inishmore is absolutely lovely in April & we felt like we had it to ourselves. Truly... More

We stayed here for a Saturday night in April...the host Bartley and his dog Guinness made us feel very welcome. Room 3 was very spacious and nicely decorated. The bathroom was large, only issue was it had a bath, no shower. Breakfast was lovely the next morning. Bartley's sons play in a band, well worth seeing; they play a mixture... More

It has big potential but need serious improvements on some aspects: - the room are Okeish, a bit small but livable, new boiler are needed, the one we had was way too dirty. - bathroom is Okeish as well, towels need to be renewed, they do not absorb at all. - the house it's cold, I know it's a b&b...

Ticks all the boxes for a very good B&B. A short walk (5 mins) from the pier leads to a hearty welcome from your hosts. The bedroom was perfect for what we wanted, very comfy bed, good water pressure in the shower. The breakfast is very tasty nad sets you up for the day. Tí Joe Watty (pub with good... More

The room was modernly decorated, very clean and comfortable. We felt very welcome and the breakfast was perfect. We... More

Perfectly situated, great price and very clean owners so so friendly. The owner got up early the morning we were leaving and cooked us our beautiful breakfast and then drove us to the pier even though it was within a five minute walk. A true gent. Would definately recommend this to any one.

We stayed at Clai Ban House at the end of Tourist season this year. The island was quiet, the tourists were few, and the weather, amazing. Clai Ban is up the hill from the harbor, on the "outskirts" of what is already a small village. It's a 5 minute walk up the hill, and to the yellow house that is... More

Clai Ban is a walk up from the harbor but the view is beautiful. The rooms were spotless and very nice. I checked in to Clai Ban but never had the chance to unpack. I was called back to the States due to a serious family emergency, and the owners were SO kind and helpful. They drove me down to... More

Lovely place, the owners were welcoming, beds were comfortable, the room was warm. Nice breakfast too. Its close to everything with a great pub just a couple of doors up. The shower is a little small so if you are of a larger frame it might not work for you but fine for most people. My only (minor) issue was... More
