Advantages: HSS service is fast Disadvantages: Slightly more expensive than Irish Ferries
I have been working in Dublin for the past few months. As I do not live near an airport, the most cost effective form of travel to Dublin was by car, on the ferry, (no airport car parking charges, no taxi fares once I arrive in Dublin port, etc).
I have been travelling from Holyhead to Dublin port, or Dun Laoghaire and back. The ferry times, weather and cost were determining factors as to which port I sailed into.
The 2 operators for this route are Irish ferries and Stena Line. I have regulary travelled on both. Each company operates 2 ships, each one sailing twice a day, (on average). 1 of the Stena ships is a "slow" ferry (Stena Adventurer), taking anywhere from 3 to 4 hours to do the crossing.

I’m just back from a week in the Republic of Ireland. We returned on the Stena Adventurer from Dublin to Holyhead and I can honestly say it was the best ferry trip we’ve ever made.
Dublin docks is not the most salubrious area in the world (what docks area is?) but the route was clearly signposted and check-in procedures were handled helpfully, efficiently and politely. One member of staff even took the trouble to direct us to a free parking spot prior to loading. Our vehicle was loaded quickly and we took the lift up to the passenger decks, which were modern, clean, spacious, comfortable and well-lit. The staff were cheerful and one of them could be heard from the kitchens repeatedly singing The Banana Boat Song! When I paid for our meal I realised that I had insufficient Euros in my pocket and there was no hassle ...
