Ship: Fred Olsen Balmoral
User Rating: 3 out of 63 out of 63 out of 63 out of 63 out of 63 out of 6
Date: 03 Oct 2018
Summary:  Staff excellent. However our cabin 5171 was far too noisy. The engine noise was unbearable. We were moved to 5149 after 2 nights, unfortunately this one was not much better. The cabins are old and dour, and the bed configuration was bemusing. On the plus side, the drinks package was good value.

Summary:  Beautiful ship,had a fabulous holiday, travelled on my own for the first time in my life and was made to feel so welcome.Sat with other single travellers for dinner and we all got on so well we pretty much stuck together the whole week,for anyone thinking o holidaying on their own I can’t stress how much you should try it,I was very wary but can’t wait to get on another cruise,felt safe the whole time and was waited on hand and foot,the staff could not do enough for us,the food was delicious and I felt thoroughly spoilt the whole 9 days.

Summary:  Enjoyed our Chocolates and Diamonds Cruise in spite of every rough weather and the Captain having to make some last minute changes to our itinery.our Ship was just beautiful with very nice Restaurants and our food was 5 * plus. Entertainment in the evening was varied and most enjoyable.This is a very friendly Ship and would certainly recommend it.We have cruised on Black Watch and Boudicea as well and hope to book up again on the near future.

Summary:  Everything was exteemly well done both on board and prior to departure. This included the staff at Newcastle port. The ship was very clean, staff were very helpfull. The food on board was incredible. You could eat very healthy food which I was pleased to see or be indulgent which was great too. Trips on shore wre very well done. It was an extreemly relaxing holiday.

Summary:  Our first experience with Fred Olsen and first cruise. Excellent service throughout.....from the moment we arrived at car park to leaving, all staff were very helpful and considerate to all our needs. The cruise itself was spectacular....... recommend Norwegian fjords. One off the bucket list! the food onboard was lovely, plenty of choice to cater for all needs. Entertainment was excellent, very professional. Would definitely be using Fred Olsen again! many thanks also to Iglu for the wonderful service and would also recommend them to my friends and family to use for there cruises options.

Summary:  This was my third time on The Balmoral and it was just as enjoyable as before. The food was excellent and the places we visited were very interesting. The pool on the Lido deck was a bit colder than I remembered. On the entertainment side the shows were great but certain guest entertainers used the same material as on past cruises. I would definitely book another cruise with Fred Olsen soon hopefully from Liverpool or Newcastle again.
