Silver Dawn Reviews

Food and service excellent Silver Dawn is a great ship with all amenities required. Only disappointment was the change of itinerary due to various weather and strike related problems. Missed St Malo and Porto also night in Lisbon with extra sea day instead. Lost our inclusive excursions with no compensation offered or alternative excursions offered . This is not a bargain cruise and they could at least given on board spend to compensate for the missed ports of call and cancelled excursions.

The ship is quite new so everything was in excellent condition. The suite staff were superb and friendly as were all other members of the crew. The food was good, ample and well presented but the amount on show in the buffet gave rise for concern about how much would be wasted. Less on show and replenished as necessary would be good. The excursions were well organised other than the shuttle which didn’t go to Newcastle despite being advertised as such. More an issue for Silversea than Iglu. All in all a great trip and superb value for money.

Arts Café was great, with a good changing selection of light bites and friendly staff. Restaurant menus didn’t indicate if any dishes were plant based, and there was only one or two items changed daily. The breakfast and lunch buffets had a great selection, but the only food we saw labelled as vegan or plant based were an odd desert. None of the salads and associated dressings were classified. Most of the staff were very professional and helpful. Loved that we were offered in-suite toiletries, including an option for sensitive skin

Excellent

Excellent cruise ship

My wife and I have just returned home from a Norwegian cruise. The whole experience was wonderful from our cabin to the service provided by the crew especially our Butler was impeccable. I would absolutely do another cruise on the Silver Dawn

Fabulous cruise from Bergen to Norway. Ship is beautiful with exceptional food and service throughout. Having sailed with other companies, Silversea is our favourite.

Wonderful ship very high standard of service wonderful food and drinks. Slightly disappointed that standard of dress has slightly dropped amongst some guests

Only complaint would be only being offered one white and one red wine at dinner when so many more were available complimentary. Should have a list available to choose.
