Balmoral Reviews

We had a lovely cruise on the Balmoral with Fred. Olsen. It was great, friendly and helpful staff to show us the way on our first cruise. We had a balcony junior suite at the rear of the ship ,the cabin was great roomy plenty of storage, kettle for tea stocks regularly topped up. Food was good, plenty of choice. Would definitely book again for a different destination. Overall a great experience.

Very good service

We had an absolutely fabulous 5 star experience and would love to go cruising again.

The ship is really good. Food and entertainment was excellent the crew were brilliant and Norway as usual was lovely

Service was outstanding on Balmoral. Cabin was nice. We needed medical care and the team were really good.

We loved the cruise.

Have cruised several times with Fred Olsen. Sailing out of Newcastle is very convenient for us and a scenic sailaway. Staff always smiling and helpful. Food good with good selection. Cabins very nice and kept immaculate. Lounges plentiful and spacious. Never had a problem finding a seat (apart from quiz time !) Would not hesitate in recommending Fred Olsen.

Overall good value for money, as always Fred Olsen service is very good. Restaurant food was good, but Palm buffet too small and not enough variety

Great cruise good food, friendly staff. A Lovely small ship.

I would recommend the ship but it caters for the more senior of citizens. The service is excellent on board.
