Would not recommend Norwegian Dawn

Onboarding/check in: was a breeze – no major lines when checking in late afternoon and checking into the safety/muster stations were quick and easy Room: showers were nice with the glass coverage rather than the plastic curtains. Television was older and had limited options – same movies and sitcoms replayed. Live news channels would often be stuck/no reception.  I know some people don’t go on ...

Ncl’s dawn is a logistical nightmare with basic cruise processes. The one tendering port process ran an average of 2 hours late and we were unable to go into dublin after our tour as a result of ncl’s incompetence. Ncl knows how many passengers fit into a tender, how many guests are onboard, how many guests are on ncl tours, and what time they are scheduled to depart. Using only 3 tenders that ...

We chose this ship because of the ports and the fact that we have sailed on the Norwegian Jewel many times and it was absolutely wonderful. We assumed that this would be of the same quality. We are so wrong. We were told by the embarkation agent that our priority boarding was not available and we had to get into the long slow line to get on. So much for Platinum Level of loyalty. After more ...

We have sailed on many ships but nothing like Norwegian Dawn. It has taken me this long to formulate my thoughts about this terrible ship. There is no dress code on this ship. We have seen it all. Torn, ripped pants, miniskirts cut clean up to where they shouldn't be and even camel toe pants. Disgusting. The food wasn't bad but lacked variety. They even had beautiful prime rib stakes being ...

For an intressant way an nice stops to Atlantic Cruise. It was so much Below average that ncl should be ashamed, ship was not it´s best and stateroom was enough for 2 but was for4 , in that case there where no place to breathe or put your luggage. We missed 2 stops due to iceberg…compensation for that was 25 us???? Not even enough for 5 espresso…served in a paper cup for the price of 3.86 ...

I expected a GREAT cruise, especially to dock in Amsterdam, Bruges, and Paris (though of course not those exact cities). I was okay with Halifax, Reykjavik, Belfast, and Dublin, but little did I know. First, The crew were exceptional from the staff in the buffet, to the bartenders, to the stewards (male and female). Always smiling, always helpful, always friendly. The food in the dining room ...

Very disappointing cruise. Not the agenda but the overall vibe and feel of the experience. My expectations for the price paid was first class yet from cabin cleanliness , management team to the buffet food, I would rate it very below average. Many employees especially senior staff avoided interaction by being on the ships phones as they walked by. Cabins was dirty and attendant did nothing more ...

Selected a Fall time cruise in the North East with three other couples. Had a good time on the cruise because of the company. But the food and beverage service was the worst I have ever experienced on a cruise ( I believe this was my 15th) Suite cabin and specialty restraints were good. In the main dining room there were 4 occasions where it took well over an hour to receive the main course. In ...

Poor Customer Service

I choose the cruise based on a lot of ports and few sea days. Found out that that was no shuttle from the train station to the ship. Had to walk a half mile with my cane leading the way. Our room was under the bridge and was very drafty with wind coming in around the balcony door most of the trip. It was next to impossible at every port to get a wheelchair for disembarking the ship. I had to ...

Restaurants: special dinning was not worth the price. the food was not great quality and served warm. The servers were very good and tried their best to assist. The meat in Cagney's was extremely poor quality and stringy. The main dinning room turned out to be better than the special restaurants (disappointing) Entertainment: the acts in the theater were excellent as was the ...
