I was skeptical in the beginning to book a service that provided an all round service of bus-ferry. The best part was it was very affordable. But my worries were pushed aside when the bus took off on time. Our journey was really smooth. The ferry was on time and we even arrived to Belfast right on schedule. I enjoyed the ferry ride, and got to see some amazing sunset as the ferry sails across the sea. I would highly recommend this to any travellers who are planning to cross Ireland and Scotland to make use of Hannon Coach service.

Reviewed By LinguiJosh - Gosport, United Kingdom

I came here from Edinburgh on 3rd February for the Boyzlife (support 'Katie Kittermaster') concert, and was immediately welcomed into the venue. The front of house usher was very friendly, directing me where to go and ensuring that I was aware of anything necessary. They made all the adjustments for others that you could possibly ask for, and were accommodating. During the concert itself, the staff were very lenient but firm when they needed to be (and given the type of concert that it was, unlike many others), this is something I imagine they needed to take into consideration greatly. Presentation-wise, it's clear that they care greatly; the toilets were spotless, the venue itself was immaculate, and they made good use of the function room afterwards for the merchandise stalls. I had absolutely no issues here, and was happy with the service I received.
