Ben My Chree. A lovely ship, although small.

Even though we were on the Ben My Chree, the staff are as helpful as usual, from the loading staff to the retail staff and everyone in between.
The ferry we were due to catch was cancelled due to bad weather and it was very easy to change the booking.

Getting worse

Turned up 75 mins before sailing. Paid significant amount for premium and was placed in wrong queue twice. Meant was late to get on ferry and struggled to get decent seats with my family together in Plus lounge. Not enough attention to delivering on what has been paid for.

Good afternoon,

Thank you for your review.

We’re sorry to hear about the issues you experienced despite arriving on time and paying for Premium. Being placed in the wrong queue and boarding late is frustrating, and we understand how disappointing it was to then struggle to find seating together in the Plus lounge. This is not the experience we aim to provide.

Comfortable seating

Comfortable seating. On the return journey the seating area,which was near the toilets, was quite cold and draught. Refreshments were good. Thankyou. Thankyou for acknowledging my comment about the draughty area where I sat. Goodbye know someone really reads these reviews. I'd travel with Stenna again.

We were foot passengers and all went smoothly

We had booked months ahead for this crossing and that was an easy process too.

As a platinum member I enjoy everything about your Stena Superfast service. My only complaint, which I have raised with you previously, is the fact that platinum members are just lumped in with everyone who hasn't purchased premium tickets. Prior to "upgrading " to platinum membership, as a gold plus member we boarded after the premium passengers. You have explained your reasons to me but they make absolutely no sense in my opinion. Basically my upgrade to platinum has resulted in a less satisfactory experience. Frequently last off the boat. Decks 1 or 2 don't make me feel very platinum.

Good morning,

Thank you for your review and for your continued loyalty as a Platinum member. We’re pleased to hear that you enjoy the Stena Superfast service overall.

We’re sorry to hear of your disappointment with the boarding arrangements and onboard experience since upgrading. We understand how frustrating it feels when Platinum benefits don’t meet expectations, particularly regarding boarding priority, disembarkation, and deck allocation.

Your comments are noted and appreciated, and they will be shared with our team.

We hope to welcome you back onboard in the future.

The check-in lady at the dock said as I didn’t have a wheelchair I couldn’t have a letter for the windscreen. I use a rollator onboard . So to just tell the men to put me near the lift . I was boarded in the middle lane near the the lift but no access to get through to the lift as cars were too tightly parked for me to get assess , I called one of the guys for help . Who pulled my rollator sideway through
the cars . And told me I should go to guest services when I got on board . And in future make it known I’m disabled . But I did on my booking . Once I got to my cabin . I summoned up the energy to go to guest services. Accessing the lift nearest to my cabin . Only to be told by another steward that deck 7 could not be got to from there . I would have to go to the front of the ship and get the other lift !!! Got to guests services . About 20 truckers turned up at the same time . But luckily a lovely young man steward came out and spoke to me as I sat on my wheely in the queue, he apologised for what had happened and offered me a free WiFi ticket . Which would not work but he tried . Offered me a complimentary porridge in the morning. In the lounge. And then assisted me to the nearer lift through the car deck . Back to my cabin . How can I prevent this happening again please . I travel regularly on this line .

Many thanks for sharing your review.

We’re very sorry for the distress and difficulty you experienced due to poor communication around your mobility needs.

Being given conflicting advice, unsuitable parking placement, and unclear guidance on lift access is unacceptable. Customers using mobility aids must receive the same clear support as wheelchair users, and we apologise that this was not provided. We will share your feedback with both port and onboard teams to reinforce correct disability and accessibility procedures.

To help avoid this happening again, please ensure that you have indicated your disability at the time of booking. You can also contact us with your parking and assistance needs before travel, using the following contact link: stenaline.ie/contactform

We appreciate you highlighting this.

Ferry cancellation with no compensation and poor customer service

Stena cancelled the Rosslare to Fishguard on Mon 13th April due to weather - there were no adverse weather / sea conditions , according to various meteorological services there were no problems and we travelled comfortably on Irish Ferries the same evening in 'slight' sea conditions. The cancellation was for business reasons nor weather related and so require co.pensarion which Srena refuses. Customer service was at best inconsistent and at worst obstructive as this leg of the journey was cancelled and refunded against my express wishes which added further comication to our travel plans as it meant a transfer to another Stena crossing was not possible without buying a more expensive ticket. Subsequent interaction with Stena customer service has met with platitudes ... so no i dont recommend Stena.

Thank you for your review regarding the Rosslare–Fishguard crossing on Monday, 13 April.
We’re sorry for the disruption caused by the cancellation and its impact on your onward travel plans. We understand how frustrating this situation was, particularly where alternative arrangements and ticket pricing were involved. While operational decisions are made with safety and scheduling considerations in mind, we acknowledge that the handling of the cancellation and subsequent customer service interactions did not meet your expectations.

Your comments regarding the refund being processed against your wishes and the lack of flexibility when transferring to another crossing are noted and will be shared with the relevant teams for review.
We regret that this experience has led you to feel unable to recommend Stena Line, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your concerns. If you wish this to be looked into further, then please use the following link to contact our customer service team: stenaline.ie/contactform
