    Really nice journey, lovely ship. The only issue is we were sent multiple messages to inform us of changes to travel times that were confusing and nor correct!

  • "Return crossing to Dublin"

    The entire return crossing was so relaxing and comfortable, the staff were excellent and the facilities were also excellent. Much less stress free than flying.

  • "Easy travel "

    Getting the ferry to Ireland taking our car was so easy, as soon as we pulled up to the booking area we were addressed by our name and directed onto the ferry. Then a short walk upstairs to the very clean and well presented ship, good facilities throughout. Would definitely travel on Stena ferries again. As the Irish like to say, “no bother”

  • "Remembrance Trip"

    I recently booked on the Stena Estrid from Holyhead to Dublin for a Family History Trip to Enniskillen. I was very impressed with the morning trip in choppy seas. I am not a great traveller in those conditions, but I hardly noticed them. The food, drinks and snacks were in plentiful supply and the whole crossing was on time. The return journey was even better, smooth sailing conditions and a beautiful sunny day. The facilities onboard were excellent. We loaded and off loaded quickly in both directions. A very memorable trip.

  • "Impressed"

    I was impressed by the service provided on my visit to Dublin and enjoyed the ferry crossing despite the pretty rough weather. The trip was comfortable, the timetable was adhered to and the transport arrangements from the ferry terminal at both Holyhaed and Dublin were ideal.

  • "Stena Estrid Late Night Crossing"

    Stena Plus takes the stress out of travelling, very good facilities BUT on the night crossing they should dim the lights as it's very hard to get some rest with all the bright lights!!

  • "Good service; kids need help waiting."

    Shame we had to wait, grateful for food voucher, but something needs to be provided for children who have to wait: would be easy to have some kids videos running in terminal and/or activity packs. Some poor parents had really overtired kids, which wasn't nice for other passengers either.

    The ship was grand, however there was an issue with the piped music on board, it was horrendous, I'm afraid not everyone one is into Hip-Hop, Rap and modern so called "music". Almost spoilt the voyage.
