The Superfast VII provides the best ferry experience on the Irish Sea with numerous facilities including a Nordic Spa, the ‘POD Lounge’, a chill out Living Room, ‘Taste’ dining, free Wi-Fi, free movies, Curious George for the kids and the exclusive Stena Plus Lounge.
Due to the short crossing, cabin accommodation is not available on the Superfast VII however reserved seating is available in the Stena Plus Lounge. Stena Plus offers a range of comfortable leather seating including sofas and sofa chairs on two levels, so you can find the area which is just right for you. In addition to seating, passengers who travel in the luxurious Stena Plus lounge can enjoy waiter service and choose from a premium menu which includes a range of speciality seafood dishes and old favourites. So you can simply relax in your seats and order meals at your leisure.

Efficient timely service on an extremely clean ship
"Visit to Belfast "
Many thanks to the staff on both journeys that assisted with getting a dog cage. Only negative was that I wanted to take the earlier ferry and was asked to pay £45 to do this
"Short Break"
11:30 sailing by car, easy check-in. but for the life of me I cant understand how they pull the lanes. We were one of the first cars there and in lane 4, a number of lanes departed before us, cars not hgv, then our lane eventually started two cars before us and we were stopped. From being first in line to last on board is frustrating. It means queues at dining ets by the time we were onboard. Being a european truck driver for years I sailed from all the English ports to Europe and have never wirness so much confusion. All other ports are bang,bang,bang get on board but not here they seem to cherry pick.
"Stranraer- Belfast return"
Very happy- Very efficient and felt very safe
"Enjoyable trip to Ireland."
My wife and I have often travelled by ferry to Belfast from Cairnryan. We have always enjoyed the experience. Ships are comfortable and staff friendly.
"Cairnryan to Belfast "
Really good trip
"We are sailing "
Will definitely be using stena line again as I have never felt so relaxed going on holiday before,from the time you get on the ship you are looked after as nothing is a problem to the crew and also the hygge lounge is a must with the comfy chairs to relax in. I would certainly recommend it .
"Trip to Belfast "

all positive in all ways . Thank you.
"Belfast cairnryan"
Very stressed when directed to level 1 of ship to park car-this is really not suitable for older folk-only one small lift with limited capacity
"Excellent Ferry Crossing"
Punctuality, facilities, and staff friendliness and helpfulness all excellent. The ferry was very comfortable and spotlessly clean throughout.
"Very happy "
Great service
"Great experience, except for..."
We travelled with our daughter who is in a wheelchair and we found the whole experience so easy, simple and accessible. My only feedback would be to see appropriate changing facilities with large bed and hoist, whether this was in the port or on the ferry as we did sadly have to change her on a toilet floor 😭
"Excellent "
Very comfortable and everything worked like clockwork:)
"Holiday "
Absolutely perfect
"First time Stenaline Traveller"
First time travelling by Stenaline and taking the car over to Scotland and it was all stress free. Staff were lovely, very organised, no chance of not knowing where to go. Went with Premium Plus lounge and again would highly recommend.
"Great"
Great service
"Disappointing service at Cairnryan port."
I'd paid premium €456.99 and was directed to row 9! Last car off! Very disappointing service.
"A good experience "
Check in and embarkation was straightforward and on time. Staff helpful and courteous. Onboard the facilities were clean . Plenty of comfortable seating.
"Trip on stena line"
Was a bit choppy on the crossing . However, was quite relaxed as staff went about , professionally.
"Easy crossing"
Super easy to find, board, and disembark. Good, reasonably priced food. Very friendly staff.
"A very pleasant trip from Belfast to Cairnryan "
It was a very smooth trip. Our seats were nice and comfy. The staff were very pleasant and cheerful.
"Trip to Scotland "
From booking online to arriving in Cairnryan, we had a smooth , friendly and comfortable journey onboard the ferry. The staff could not have been more friendly and going on and off the ferry was very easy . Would highly recommend this service, and will definitely be using again.
"Great service"
I had a great journey from cairnryan to Belfast on the first ferry of the day, then from Belfast to cairnryan later the same day. I paid a little bit extra for the hygge lounge which was so comfy and highly recommend. I do this trip every 6 months for work and am looking forward to my next journey with sterna which I will book via directvferries.
"Business trip"
Fast and efficient service for boarding the ferry. Once on board, we took up the Stena Line plus lounge which was well worth the extra money. Plenty of different seats to choose from, hot and cold drinks, and snacks available throughout the journey. The bar menu wasn't part of the package, what I chose was a little disappointing for the money. All in all, excellent service.
"Fantastic Trip"
This has to be one of the best, most relaxed trip we have been on. I don't travel too good but this was so easy and relaxing I will be using it again in the future without hesitation. We also turned up early for our ferry and the staff done what they could to help and avoid us having to wait they got us on the earlier ferry, once on board the lounges are all very clean and seating comfy. If you are looking to travel to Ireland or from Ireland to the UK don't hesitate book yourself on Stena Line Ferries.
"Another great crossing"
Very smooth crossing lovely helpful knowledgeable staff as always
"Northern Irish Trip"
Enjoyable trip and would definitely recommend
