  • "All went better than expected "

    This was our first time to travel by ferry. We got a great deal on Black Friday/sale price. Kids had a ball. Great freedom on the boat. Tiny kids area but they loved it and entertainment was provided. They used the cinema on way over and back (This wasn't free as I thought it would be) Food is ok.

  • "Irish holidays"

    Having travelled by boat for 50 years between France and Ireland, I have been on different ship companies ; however we have used Stena Line ever since it started on Cherbourg-Rosslare . It has improved every year and can now cope with quite a big number of passengers . There seems to be less livestock but certainly more truckers. bikers and families. It is quite pleasant with plenty of space , televisions and bars. And now Wi-Fi ! And it is VERY punctual in general.

  • "Relaxing start to a holiday "

    Really enjoyed travelling to France this way. The only downside the shop was tiny and did not have a lot in it. Everything else was great . Will travel to France by ferry again.

  • "Stena Horizon"

    Overal, the trip was good but the quality of the food has gone down compared with a few years ago. Also the PA speaker was not working in our cabin so we could'nt hear announcments. Apart from that it's a great setvice.

  • "Excellent family ship"

    Excellent ship all round except for the cleanliness of the toilets. My 7 year old went to the toilet only to have walked all over human faeces. I went in to the toilets and it was everywhere and i mean everywhere. One hour later i went back to check and it had not been cleaned despite me telling someone unboard. My daughter was very distressed and her shoes and socks were distroyed. I was very annoyed at this. We had to bin her footwear and shower her. I was on a Stena ship last week and there was a cleaner in tge toilets every 15 minutes as my wife and i were sitting opposite the entrance. If the cleanilness improved unboard Irish ferries they would get 5 out of 5 but we had a traumatic ecperience and would question whether to travel again

  • "Efficient service"

    The ferry journey from Rosslare to Cherbourg was great. It saved us driving through Scotland and England to get to the south of France. Well worth it. As a disabled passenger, I was disappointed to not have access outside. Also, I found it bothersome to have to ask for a key to the disabled toilet when I wanted to go. How about installing RADAR locks in order to make the toilets open to disabled customers only?

  • "N. Ireland to France, the easy way"

    A very relaxing, stress free way of getting to France from N. Ireland, without the need to use the ridiculously priced ferries to Cairnryan and then drive 500 miles down through England. The timing of departure and arrival makes is compatible with onward journeys and makes the crossing seem to pass quickly. Cabin clean and reasonably comfortable. Would definitely travel this way again.

  • "A really nice trip"

    It was our first time in Irland. We often do long trip. The hospitality was really good: some guys were playing at the entrance and they gave a good start an unforgettable trip. All the services: from th office on board to the restaurant and duty free were di excellent quality. The only flaw was the price. For us it would be better to do the "camping on board" formula. In conclusion very good. Alessandro Ferrante
