"Travel"
The staff could not do enough for you to help the boat very clean it beats the French crossing hands down.
"P.o Ferries "
Great family boat
"Corporate greed"
It's a absolute disgrace that po replaced and sacked British workers and replaced by Filipino workers shocking
"Good crossing"
Excellent service from the crew. Friendly and professional . Food was well cooked and plenty of it and coffee tea as much as you like. Couldn’t fault the crossing at all. Really good.
"Great service, good food, no lifts"
All of the staff were cheerful and helpful. Due to a lack of lifts, I don't recommend the route for anyone with mobility problems or small children. Meals are included in the fare and were of a good standard. All public areas and the cabins were clean and spacious.
"First Irish Ferry trip with P&O"
Although the Liverpool-Dublin trip is a long one at 7 hours, you can use the time to relax and get ready for whatever you’ve planned. We had a daytime cabin so had somewhere to snooze, read or even shower.Food on the Ferry was good and service too. Enjoyed the experience.
"Great staff"
The staff were amazing, they couldn't do enough to make us feel welcome. It was an 8 hour crossing and they just kept smiling and being kind.
"P&O Ferry crossings to and from Ireland"

"Below average "
Poor punctuality, poor customer communication, just below standard. Never again
"Excellent"
Staff were friendly, breakfast lunch and dinner included, really good choice.
"Fantastic value "

So it’s a big thank you to everybody at P & O

"Disappointed with Direct Ferries happy with P&O"
I am was very disappointed with Direct Ferries as they advertise one price and then add a booking fee, The service provided by P&O was excellent
"Greg's first trip...to Dublin.."
We had a wonderful time..very calm Sailing..friendly staff..cabins comfortable..love the shower..food was amazing...can't wait to travell again
"The ferry was fine but Direct Ferries not so much."
Booking the trip was very easy and as long as you don't mind a no nonsense sailing with lots of trucks the ferry is fine (evening meal and breakfast were great) but when P&O cancelled the return sailing Direct Ferries were hopeless, I had to phone P&O directly to fix the problem, they were very helpful.

"Enjoyable first trip with P&O ferry's "
Staff very polite food and service excellent I will always travel with P&O. Thank You P&O .
"A surprisingly pleasant journey"
This was our first Liverpool Dublin ferry and it was great. Relaxing with great complementary catering - two excellent meals. Comfortable and easy journey
"Break to Dublin "
Easy to book, downside on booking on line was asked if wanted at an additional cost to book meals or a cabin. Didn't want a cabin due to daytime crossing. Glad we didn't pay extra for meals as they were included at no additional cost in the ticket price. This seems to be on line booking to get more money from travellers.
"Plain sailing "
Are you fed up with airport frenzy ? Long queues hours before your flight ? All those hidden added extras on cheap flights ? Then extortionate car rentals ? If you are , go back to using the ferry - simple, friendly, comfortable , free refreshments and a chance to lie back and relax until your destination …
"Liverpool to Dublin "
We traveled over to Ireland for a road trip and took our own car on the ferry. The booking process was straight forward and we enjoyed the crossing. The food was free and we always had access to hot drinks. We sailed during the day but booked a cabin on our return due to there not being many places to sit. Some passengers used the comfy seats to lie down and sleep which reduced the seating area. Staff were friendly and helpful.
"Assessment of P &O Ferry service"
The catering as provided on the ferry on which I travelled was excellent. The food and service which your caterers on board was first class. I did at the time express my thanks to them personally for their hard word in producing a quality catering experience. Well done and thank you to all . On another topic, I experienced great difficulty trying to locate Terminal 3 at Dublin sea ferries in the hours of darkness. The signage was extremely poor. Fortunately for me a Docks Official led me to Terminal 3 . I followed his car to the terminal. Without his assistance, I doubt if I would ever found the terminal in time for my departure. As other must experience the same problem, I respectfully suggest that P&O update their signage at the Dublin Ferry Terminals and also provide a map giving clear and concise directions to their departure terminals.
"Pleasantly Surprised "
My heart sank when I saw the size of the ferry, I thought the trip was going to be basic and uncomfortable but it was anything but. The lounge was spotlessly clean and comfortable, and the staff friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and plentiful and overall the trip was excellent value for money.
"Dublin to Liverpool trip"
Top class, lovely outside cabin, 3 meals we weren't expecting and everyone very nice
"Holiday travel"
Excellent trip, ship set sail on time. The food was definitely a bonus to the trip. Great service from start to finish. First time we have used the ferry. Will definitely travel with P and O again. Thank you.
"The trip as a whole went smoothly, food awful. Dublin port was badly signposted and P&O ferries wer"
We had a cabin both ways, so the trip went quickly as you could either sleep or read. Food was rank on the trip from Liverpool, absolutely awful on the trip from Dublin. Would never travel with P&O again due to the disgusting way their UK employees were treated. Already booked and paid for trip before the news broke.
"Brilliant "
Very easy to check in and board. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Will travel with P&O again,
"Excellent Trip"
The journey Liverpool to Dublin and return were both excellent trips. They were punctual and the staff were courteous and helpful. Facilities were also excellent with really good food at both ends of the journey. Overall an excellent experience which I would recommend to family and friends as an excellent way to travel between Liverpool and Dublin.
"A very pleasant journey "
This was a very good trip & it passed very quickly. The ferry had good facilities, it wasn’t too crowded and the inclusive food was excellent! The only downside was that the dock was difficult to find
"Short break to wexford"
Booked the crossing from Liverpool to Dublin as it was the shortage trip by road to connect to the ferry. The whole process of been booked in and loaded on board went very smoothly. We booked a cabin for both trips. The accommodation was clean and we were informed of all details about the trip across the Irish Sea. The meal selection was plentiful and varied with hot drinks available throughout the crossing. We will definitely use this crossing again as we felt refreshed and completed the onward journey with ease. The crew were friendly and helpful
