I arrived in Clifden by bicycle, without lodging arranged. Ben View house was found located directly across the street from the tourist office, which happened to be closed at the time. The room was clean, the staff friendly and accommodating. Upon my request, secure storage of my bicycle was provided. The price of the room was more than reasonable. In... more

This is one of the best kept secrets of Ireland! I cannot find enough wonderful words to describe the owners of this old world charm B&B. Our room was a nice size (typical European) the bathroom was larger than MOST bathrooms I have experienced in Europe and the noise level was not at all unbearable! Charming antiques and a wonderful... more

My husband and I stayed there on a cold rainy night in January, Despite the other reviews, we had a big room, an excellent bathroom, it was warm and cosy. We were at the back of the house upstairs. The owners were very friendly and helpful. I loved all the family memorabilia and the breakfast room. We stayed at 10... more

If you want the absolute best in Irish hospitality, this is the place! Eileen & Desmond Morris knew the name of each family member, advised us on evening activities, and would have done anything to make our stay lovely. We had multiple breakfast choices that were delicious and beautifully composed on the plate. I only wish we could have stayed... more

The smallest B&B room I've ever seen in this part of Ireland. The bathroom was inside a closet, 15 cm from the bed, with doors unable to close properly. Not the ideal thing for shy people... The shower was located permanently high upon the wall, and the water pressure was very poor. The floor ofcourse was covered with a rug,... more

I love this place. Yes, the rooms are small and the facilities may not be "up to date", but the folks who own this place are top rate. The same family has run it for generations and they take great pride in what they do. I stumbled across it four years ago and now it's where I stay in Clifden.... more

Ben View is located in Clifden, Co Galway. Rooms are very small, bathrooms smaller and in need of a good update (like doors that close, and a shower you dont have to run around to get wet in) Room was also draughty and noisy. Also felt cold even with the heating on. Part of the charm of this place is... more
