Reviews of Marine Atlantic Argentia Ferry Terminal (Moving Company)

Christopher Kraut

Staff were great there!

Kathy McKay

The terminal was only open to use the washroom. ID needed to be presented even though I was already checked in. We sat for almost 2 hours before we could get checked in. No washroom was easily available during the wait in line even though we were to arrive early. I hope they improve the system.

I loved this place because it's so beautiful and it was the beginning of my trip to Nova Scotia

Very good service

Bruce Stearman

It was easy to board the ferry and the washrooms were clean. The ferry ride was pleasant with a comfortable if small cabin. We didn't order food as when we booked the restaurant was listed as closed. The menu posted on board indicated that the prices where reasonable and comments we heard indicated the food was good. They were efficient loading and unloading the cars.

Off season, unexpected emergency opening due to weather damaged roads eliminating Port Aux Basques access.. Argentia stepped up and kept the island access moving!

Leonmary Brubaker

Smooth Ride. Reasonably priced Sandwiches on board.

Rikie Pennings

Very well organized. Great boarding. Helpful staff. We had a 4 bunk cabin for the overnight crossing. It was very, very good. The Three Sisters Express (restaurant) in the terminal was better than many restaurants I have been to. My compliments to all.

The Rogue Less Travelled

Unable to move around due to the pandemic, had to stay in our room but no wifi available outside the common areas and no TV in room either. Spent 45 min in a Covid check line (1 of 11 lines of about 40 cars each) with 1 guy and a clip board checking people while a handful of other staff stood around chatting with each other.

Well ,I can honestly say the security people at the terminal were very helpful when I lost my boarding pass.And Covid conscious and very professional on the ship and on the dock.

(Translated) I tried several times to have a bunk with reservations of up to 2 months and there was never a free bunk. As I am a sick person it is problematic. During my crossing of August 15, 2019 the healthiness left something to be desired. The men's toilets were covered with urine on the floors and occasionally on the seats. I went to several and there was no improvement. For over $ 350 it is extremely disappointing. (Original) J'ai tenté à plusieurs reprises d'avoir une couchette et ce avec des tentatives de réservation allant jusqu'à 2 mois et jamais il n'y avait de couchette libre. Comme je suis une personne malade c'est problématique. Lors de ma traversée du 15 août 2019 la salubrité laissait à désirer. Les toilettes des hommes étaient couvertes d'urine sur les planchers et à l'occasion sur les sièges. Je suis passé à plusieurs et il n'y avait aucune amélioration. Pour plus de 350$ c'est extrêmement décevant.

Not particularly scenic at the terminal, but very interesting mountains and military installations in the harbour.

We took the short ferry to Newfoundland and then the longer overnight ferry back. Capacity constraints on both ferries and many ferry services and spaces closed or reduced. Happy we booked a cabin for the overnight ferry. Smooth seas made the trip easy. For all about our ferry to Newfoundland check out the RetiredAndTravelling blog.

Phillip Hebb

Very impressed with communications to keep me advised on delay caused by hurrican Doirion

Robert Forsey

Very clean, lots of roaming areas!!

Gorgie Porgie

Professional staff and friendly. When weather delays voyage, their advisory system is a great help.

Gerald Clancey

Staff are so helpful. Don't forget your ID and boarding card if you've leave the secure area.

Thom

The great staff gave great instructions to get checked-in and boarded properly. Designated smoking at back of main building (accessed from inside or by walking around the outside). There are several picnic tables at the front and back of the building).

Beverly Buck

4 hours still not sailing very little information this is crazy not even offered a coffee had to pay boy oh boy if we where late they would take my money and i would have to rebook and pay again how is this fair

Anthony Castillo

Nice personal and area, just the delays and logistics to get in or out makes it slow

Nathan Glen

Can have long wait times due to weather, but that is to be expected. Limited food options in the terminal.

GWoo

A smaller ferry terminal, little in food or souvenir stands.

Eric Clermont

Very efficient loading and unloading. Friendly staff. The rooms were clean and we appreciated them immensely. The waters were choppy for the first few hours so some of us made good use of the barf bags.

nancy mackay

Fine but it was cold

Curtis Z

Good system just a little pricey

Joyce Doyle

Considering computers were down everything was great staff very friendly and kept us informed very pleased

Elaine

Boarding was easy and we'll organized. We had a cabin for the crossing fortunately. The staff on board were friendly and helpful.

Jacques Labranche

Beautiful place

Kyle Dore

The best run tje company offers. Better all around experience for the passengers, offering more freedom to roam the ship and offers more entertainment.

Diane Hunt

The ferry terminal was clean, bright, and as usual, everyone there was very friendly. Security was doing their job checking everybody's ID and boarding passes. All Covid protocols were being followed. The only complaint was it was a freezing cold, windy day. I don't think Marine Atlantic can do anything to help with that, though.

Corrina Ryan

Good boats but too expensive

Richard Weigand

Very welcoming staff. Easy to get around the ferry. Great for pictures. Good food and priced very reasonably. Cabin was very clean. Journey was very smooth. We loaded on and off very easily. Recommend!!

glen parsons

Madonna Agar

WiFi doesn't work. No drinks or snacks available for purchase. Staff were all friendly :)

Sean Stafford

Atlantic Vision is a huge upgrade over the old ships... All the staff I dealt with were extremely helpful and friendly.

Dave Dunn

Closest port to St. John's from North Sydney for passenger vehicles
