"Fishguard to Rosslare ferry crossing"
Thank you for facilitating our family on Tues 8th Nov when our ferry was cancelled due to bad weather on Mon 7th Nov. We understand how difficult it must be to try and accommodate all passengers following a cancellation. We had a 4 bed berth cabin going out and managed to secure 2 2 berth cabins going home. The crossing was very rough but we managed to get through it ok. Thank you for your professionalism and informing us early on Sun 6th Nov that the Mon 7th Nov crossing would be cancelled. This allowed us to make alternative arrangements.
"Fabulous ferry Rosslare to Fishguard"
Taking the ferry as a walk on passenger was a delightful experience.
"It is so easy."
I am a single Mom travelling with a four year old and it is so easy and uncomplicated. Everything is so well organized and prepaired. Great experience and very exciting.
"Power family review"
All very positive generally. Should be clarified in Duty Free that one bottle of whiskey per passenger and no more ( I was informed of this fact by the friendly customs officer on disembarkation!
"A good experience."
This was a good, comfortable, good food and timely.
"Roslare Fishguard"
Based on excellent Stena Trip from.Stranraer to Belfast topk Stena Europe Roslare Fishguard. Worlds apart. Loust breakfast options chaotic q system, dirty toilets worn chairs and the main lounge was kept so cold we had to leave. Very poor. Staff indifferent. Back to a poor irish ferries but food better at least.
"Decent "
Fantastic experience except for the men's toilets, with only one adult urinal and one cubical not blocked, and that is a huge issue to me
"Enjoyable Ferrying "

"Great journey "
Change at no cost made up for a terrible journey. Lost but I was consoled. Thanks
"Relaxing crossing"
We had a nice relaxing crossing on both legs of our trip. The ferry was clean and comfortable and the staff were very friendly and helpful. We used the Stena Plus lounge and we will definitely book it again the next time we travel to Wales. The lounge was quiet and comfortable and the service and food was excellent. We would recommend using it, we felt it added to our comfort on the ship. There was a very nice member of staff working in the facilities in Fishguard. She was very welcoming and helpful to all the travellers. We were very impressed with the standard of cleanliness in these facilities too.
"Fantastic time away "
From the time I arrived on the ferry until the time I departed the ferry it was amazing, the staff are so friendly, the gentleman who was working in the duty (I didn't get his name) he was so friendly & we had a bit of craic as I told him on the way over I was going to meet a guy & he asked me on the way back how did I get on & what part of Wales did I stay & I told him I couldn't pronounce the name 🤣 (it's the little things that make it a pleasant journey) anyway all & all I loved it & would highly recommend using stena & I definitely will be using it again in the near future 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
"Crazy stena line "
Ridiculous arrived in fishguard for ferry not body to speak to as a foot passenger no office no staff hearing ferry will be 3 hours late no one to ask Waiting room cold miserable now hearing ferry won’t be in till 5 am that’s a 6 hour wait
"Unhappy"
Was delayed for 2 hours then delayed for another 3hrs on top. I changed over to Irish ferries as was not happy with the Stena Line.
"Excellent "
Very good , I use for my work. Good price. May be should have bit more vegetarian option for people who eats halal food.
"Exceptional Service"
The support of both Direct Ferries and Stena Line both were extremely accommodating and very helpful with the multiple changes of my trip. Everything went very smoothly and would highly recommend them in future.
"Overall good"
The stena line staff were excellent and very friendly from the catering staff through to the check in staff, a really great service. Cleanliness could be improved a lot, in particular the toilet facilities available were very poor and not clean.
"Ferry service"
Timely service and easy to schedule.
"Very good staff"
Lovely crossing lovely staff very helpful Anne was busy and pleasant
"Ferry Service to Rosslare "
Excellent service but would like more attractive deals and would travel more.
"Facilities"
Hi, on our recent trip we noticed again the strong peguent smell of urine as soon as we boarded when passing the toilets. It's horrible and put us off buying food. Surely in this day and age something can be done about this absolutely horrible smell that everyone noticed. Also in the duty free shop, it's just too small and doesn't sell anything that interests us, Irish & English people doing this trip are just not interested in over priced mugs and irems that might only interest naive Americans. I think there is room for major improvements
"Stenna "
Very good service
"Stress free travel"
We love travelling on the ferry. It is so relaxing. Just minutes after leaving the car on the car deck you can be enjoying a meal or simply a coffee. The lounges on board are comfortable and it is nice to be able to have a walk around the ferry to stretch your legs. If you are travelling with children there is a good play area for them. The shop on board is good for picking up gifts. Staff on board are very friendly. We would highly recommend travelling on the ferry. It is so easy!
"Ferry trip"
Very pleasant sailung
"Very pleasant experience "
Just a very hassle free way of travel.... friendly and helpfull staff.... great facilities on board... I will travel with Stena again!
"Stress free traveling"
Easy way to travel. Ship was clean in all areas.
"Great way to travel"
This was a comfortable journey & departed & arrived on time..food was good & as my return was quite late I booked a cabin to get a few hours sleep..well worth it..I will be using Stena Line again
"Restaurant was a huge dissappointment"
A family of 5 ordered roast chicken, adult burger and 3 kids fish and chips. The menu clearly stated kids meals came with peas or beans. When we just got chips I queried the staff who told me I was wrong. The roast chicken came with chicken and chips! Again the menu said there was a choice but was not asked - just take it. Asked for the burger with cheese and bacon and got no bacon. This cost 55 Euros! Absolutely terrible and left me pretty angry for the rest of the trip.
"Effortless"
Lovely way to travel. Staff at Rosslare were so helpful when I mistakenly booked the trip for the wrong direction and changed the booking immediately and free gratis. Great service thank you
"Perfect sailing"
Wonderful weather which ensured a totally smooth trip. Left a bit late so arrived later but we disembarked quickly. Clean and maintained with pleasant staff. However the captain's announcement with a strong accent meant some could not understand him..
"Professional outfit "
Given the adverse conditions of the crossing between Rosslare and Fishguard, the ferry's Captain and crew did very well in making customers feel comfortable, safe and informed of the situation. Meals were reasonably priced and plentiful but some healthy options would have been great.
"Good trip "
Was great and staff were so helpful
"Pay extra for slower service"
We travel this route 5 or 6 times a year but last week had a poor experience. We paid extra for the premium service to enjoy a restful afternoon in the lounge and priority disembarkation but the loading was delayed by 2 hours due to “heavy traffic”, “gales in the Irish Sea” and “a diesel spillage on the Lordy deck”. Take your pick. Lounge noisy due to creaking glass doors and inevitable noisy phone user. Arrived almost 3 hours late and disembarked to find that we were among the first 6 cars to leave but well behind a queue of articulated lorries! What is the point of priority if heavy goods traffic has actual priority??
"Unhappy "
Direct ferries.i was due to travel on 22 dec 2017.my mother was booked to travel with me to spend christmas with famiy in england.sadly my mother got very ill in the weeks leading up to the travel date,i tried endlessy to contact your number both in ireland and england.i constantly got a recorded message to say office was closed,i must conclude that this supposed or imaginary office is never open no matter the hour or the day because i never got a reply accept to say try alter said booking online which is just about impossible to do.ive lost 368 euro on this booking and i will never book with this company again.i have yet to recieve any call back if even out of politeness or common manners.customer care classes needed rather quickly for your staff.my name is Tom Kielthy.i would advise anyone reading this to be wary of booking using this company.if youve read this review i thank you as ive never did one before.
"Comfortable, clean, good food"
Pleasant journey over and back, plenty of room, good facilities, food was nice, staff helpful, toilets clean.
"Fishguard and Rosslare with Stena Line"
nice trip.
"STENA PLUS"
Travelled back from UK to Ireland, night crossing. Paid a little extra for Stena Plus which id highly recommend. It was staffed by a young lady who was very friendly and professional. The lounge was very classy and laid back with plenty of room and comfort. The food was very nice and I was able to get a few hours undisturbed sleep. A very nice experience and I will travel Stena Plus again.
"Fishguard to Rosslare "
Sailed with StenaLine from Fishguard to Rosslare last week. There was a lovely soft play area for kids with some entertainment from an animation team. My kids really enjoyed it and we found the crossing very pleasant.
"Good crossing"
Had a pleasant journey. Check in and embarkment very smooth and in good time. Pleasant crossing. Just had coffee but enjoyed trip. Arrived on time and again smooth disembarkment.
"lack of currency exchange frustrating"
It's a bummer that you discontinued offering currency exchange services. I was traveling on foot and the closest post office in Fishguard didn't do currency exchanges. I walked there rather than taking the train directly from the ferry terminal expecting to change my cash and then I couldn't do that. Very inconvenient. At least advertise on your website that there is no currency exchange available and remove the signage all over the ship that points towards the bureau de exchange.
"Punctual with no fuss"
Overall pleasant journey on Stena Europe which arrived on time. Staff provided assistance when required. I didn't eat on board.
"saling"
Catering is extremely over priced for a portion that would only feed a 6 mth old baby. The seats in the bar alone the stairway are short and your unable to sit comfortable on them. More people obted to sit on the ground.
