Looking out at the Wild Atlantic, the Aran Islands Hotel (Óstán Oileain Arainn) is the perfect base for your escape to Inis Mór, one of Ireland’s last remaining secret havens. Our guests tell us it’s like they are in their Irish home away from home, with everything from a cosy open fire to tasty home cooked meals served with a welcome smile. For a truly unique getaway, why not stay in one of our private Seaview Bedroom Chalets on the naturally elevated grounds of the hotel. We designed our Seaview Chalets so you can experience the island way of life like never before; enjoy fresh air as soon as you step out onto your decking area and luxuriate in the island and sea views. Our bedrooms and Chalets in Aran Islands Hotel offer the perfect refuge to relax and restore after a busy day exploring and enjoying the delights of Inis Mór. Each room is En-suite with tea and coffee making facilities. Many of our rooms offer stunning sea-views and our balcony rooms offer a spacious area to enjoy the views in privacy. Our chalets all have their own private terrace, so you can breathe in fresh Atlantic air while you sip on a drink from our bar. All our rooms come with freshly cooked breakfast each morning in our restaurant. Family rooms and chalets are available. Our hotel continues to evolve as demand grows for a unique hideaway from the hustle & bustle of the day to day. Due to popular demand, we added to our little ‘village’ of Seaview Bedroom chalets on naturally elevated grounds to take advantage of the views of the island and Wild Atlantic. The Seaview Bedroom Chalets are located next to the hotel so that you can take advantage of all our hotel has to offer, including our Bar & Restaurant with both indoor and outdoor seating. Each Seaview Chalet has a decking area for you to relax, unwind or catch up with loved ones on your island escape while soaking up the fresh air & stunning views. Family Bedroom Chalets, with a separate living room and private deck are also available.

Where do I start with this gem of an island and fabulous hotel!! The lovely Oliver met us off the ferry and brought us and our luggage to the hotel. We stayed in the chalets, which was super cosy with everything you needed with beautiful views of the island. We ate in Madigans and food was out of this world so delicious. Staff so accommodating and friendly. When checking out we enquired to the lovely Sinead at reception about rebooking as we cannot wait to return. So sad to be leaving this gorgeous hotel but will be back before we know it...

Stayed with Family in Aran Islands Hotel and on Check In we were greeted by very nice Receiptionists. Family stayed in Hotel Room but my sister and I both had chalet at back of Hotel. Transfer from pier was included in rate and we were chauffeured by bus transfer by the lovely gent named Donal. Donal was ever so courteous a bit of fun and very obliging by bringing us to and from the Hotel. Would highly recommends in staying at this hotel if ever staying on the Island. Chalets were exceptionally in pristine condition and very clean from bed linen to shower area. Met a local from the Island called Pat who gave us the history of the Island and we enjoyed his company in the bar area. Dined in Hotel and food was top class Michelin rated for sure. Would definitely will go back to Island and thanks to Donal, Sheila and Night Porter for an eventful time in Hotel. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay here .

We stayed here for 3 nights in August. Our chalet was very clean and had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay. We had dinner in the hotel which was delicious we both really enjoyed it! Breakfast was generous & fresh always replenished with fresh items. I would like to praise all of the staff extremely efficient & friendly and always ready to help. It’s nice to see a well managed hotel.Transfer to the pier was a huge bonus. The island itself is just a magical place. I would highly recommend to rent bikes and cycle around the Island. Reception will always answer or give any suggestions or recommendations what to do/see in the area. We honestly can’t wait to go back for longer😊 Highly recommend this hotel 10/10!

Lovely hotel. Very homely feel to it. The owners dad collected us from the pier. He was a gent! Shout out to Paddy behind the bar. He kept us entertained! Both breakfast and dinner we good and the staff were friendly. Having Netflix in the room was a nice touch.

Our second visit to the Aran Islands Hotel and again it did not disappoint. We stayed in a seaside view room with balcony this time. Spacious, clean, bed very comfortable and the view amazing. Staff are so friendly and professional. Food is just wonderful from breakfast through to evening meals. I would highly recommend a visit to hotel or chalets as stayed in both. Definitely will return as feels like home on every visit 😀

It’s been a long time since I’ve stayed in a place where the staff are so attentive and on the ball. Since covid I’ve found restaurants and bars are struggling with staff and customer service, definitely not the case here!! Was really blown away by the service, every staff member so accommodating and friendly. Our room was lovely and spacious, food was really tasty, lots of options for breakfast and we had evening buffet and 3 course meal two nights which were delicious, and again staff so efficient and friendly. Really made our stay so enjoyable! Booked in next year!
