We were greeted by Eileen who was so friendly and welcoming. She shared the history of her B&B as well as stories of her family's generations in the house. Our family of four was accommodated comfortably. We were right in town, and felt very safe! Breakfast was amazing, and her fine table layout with family heirlooms and nice china felt... More

We loved Ben View House. We stayed there our first two nights in Ireland and were thrilled with our choice. Room was large and bed comfortable. Eileen was fantastic, with helpful suggestions for meals and sightseeing and wonderful stories. We have already recommended Ben View House to other travelers.

We rolled into Clifden on our bicyles. Greeted by a gentleman (Des) at Ben View House. He insisted on showing us the room he had available before we accepted. Lovely warm shower to ease the aches after cycling from Galway. Nice room and comfy bed. The breakfast was delicious. The breakfast room is filled with fine silver and porcelain. Des... More

beautifully decorated with a lot of antiques....You will be in Victorian heaven. The rooms were very nice and the beds extremely comfortable. The B and B is close to everything in town. The breakfast was delicious! I would stay here again next time!

Wonderful place to stay. Rooms were comfortable and clean. Eileen was very hospitable. The shower was wonderful. Have never seen one like it. Many Pubs were within walking distance so we could visit more than one in an evening. Breakfast was wonderful with a choice of what we wanted to eat. Would certainly stay here again.

The owner was incredibly friendly and helpful, accommodating our last minute late night arrival and directing us to a nearby tire repair shop the next morning. As a bonus, she made us a delicious Irish breakfast,... More

Eileen was absolutely wonderful! She was very helpful and so interesting to talk to. She made us feel right at home. Great location; quiet but close to everything. Breakfast was delicious! All in all, a great value.

Parts of the place feel like a museum with all the photos, ornate dinner ware and antiques — especially the dining room. It has a sense of being intimate and comfortable. They let us choose the rooms we wanted from of all that were available, which allowed us to pick a real street-side gem with a view of the church. Restaurants... More

Couldn't ask for more... Comfortable beds, warm and cosy quiet rooms, great showers (very important!), and hospitality second to none. This beautifully furnished B and B has a long history of providing a true Irish welcome - it's been operated by the same family since the twenties, and the care and attention to detail is fantastic. The perfectly cooked and... More
