Description

Norwegian Star was ordered by Star Cruises and later transferred to Norwegian Cruise Line. This Panamax ship has good liveability and wide open spaces to enjoy the sea. Norwegian Star's original hotel distribution has been compromised, following a refit, with the elimination of the beautiful panoramic saloon at the bow replaced by cabins. In this way, liveability has been reduced and evening entertainment on board has also been reduced, since all activities are now concentrated in the single aft saloon.

NORWEGIAN STAR (Island and Norwegen)

I liked

Tolle Route, lockere Bordatmosphäre, großartiges Essen in den Hauptrestaurants, fantastische Bord-Band "The Excell"

I didn't like

Tagesprogramm schlecht übersetzt + unpünktlich, Extras nach Corona weggefallen, Auswahl/Qualität Büffet durchwachsen.

Freestyle? Nicht schlecht

I liked

Zeitplanfreiheit

I didn't like

Schiff nicht sehr modern

Comment

Ich mag den Stil von NCL, der keine Zeitpläne vorschreibt und viele Möglichkeiten bietet, die Tage und Kreuzfahrtstopps zu genießen. Norwegian Star ist kein sehr modernes Schiff, obwohl es immer noch interessant ist und eine sehr schöne Umgebung hat. Der Stil ist ungezwungen, jung und sehr lustig.

Ottima esperienza in Nord Europa. Nave giovanile, con divertimento fino a tardi e buoni servizi. Cabina perfetta e tanta cortesia. Esperienza assolutamente da ripetere

Prima esperienza freestyle

I liked

Servizi, crew, intrattenimento, pulizia

I didn't like

Nave datata, cabine piccole, odore di cibo in tutti i piani principali della nave

Comment

Prima esperienza con Ncl tutto sommato positiva anche se il "freestyle"non è il mio genere, il servizio è sicuramente eccellente e superiore ai suoi competitor!
