Love sailing on Iona - lovely large ship, excellent decor , cabins & restaurants. Such helpful, friendly staff in all areas. Kept spotlessly clean, no complaints- hopefully be back for another cruise soon

Can’t fault the ship or process at all. She was at full capacity with over 5400 passengers so it did feel busy in certain areas … but always somewhere to sit. Would have liked more chances to book into speciality dining but did manage to try some. It all booked out so quickly

Myself and my partner had a great time on the cruise. The ship was always spotlessly clean, the staff were friendly, the entertainment was great and the food was exceptional. We ate both in the buffet restaurant and the main restaurants (coral, pearl) which we thoroughly enjoyed however I was let down by the lack of adherence to dress code. The website clearly states that no trainers/casual wear/sportswear is to be allowed in the main restaurants however multiple people were wearing whatever they wanted. For me this slightly ruined the atmosphere within the dining rooms when we had made an effort to dress nicely. Other than that we had a great holiday.

The ship was beautiful, spotless everywhere. Food, service was excellent. Ate in MDR every night different choice of menu each night. To book a table on the app was quick and easy, only had to wait about 10 mins for table, so no queueing outside to get in. Most entertainment was very good. Jo Little comedian was very poor. The fjords was beautiful but booked our excursions privately, P&O very expensive.

My husband and I had a Fantastic Norwegian cruise holiday on the Iona my husband has a disability and we couldn’t fault the service we were given from our cabin attendant Paolo the restaurant staff, to the crew who helped us on and off the ship for our excursions The cabin was an adapted cabin and suited my husbands needs perfectly

We had a great time. Cabin was as expected. The ship was in good condition not showing signs of wear and tear. We enjoyed some of the entertainment but some was not to our liking. You could always get served and find seats. Our cabin steward was very welcoming and looked after us well. We did our own thing at the ports and enjoyed them all.
