What a view! From our room at the front of the hotel we could see the Aran Islands and the Cliffs of Moher. Our welcome was friendly, our room was comfortable and the location of the hotel close the the Cliffs of Moher, Doolin and The Burren was hard to beat. more

We spent our first night in Ireland at the Aran View, and it was perfect. We had our three kids with us, and got a nice family suite with two rooms adjoined by a small hallway.
