frankbrown's review of Fred Olsen Cruise Line, Balmoral

★★☆☆☆

“Spent 3 weeks in this noisy cabin 2nd June to 22nd...”

Written on: 23/06/2008 by frankbrown

Good Points
Friendly crew, excellent entertainment.

Bad Points
In an outside cabin at the rear of Atlantic deck (deck 5). We found the noise and vibration when the ship was docking/departing/maneuvering to be horrendous. You could not have a lie in, the noise started one hour before docking and the same on leaving. My wife suffered headaches every port day. Other guests tell me the same problems are apparent on deck 4 at the rear also.

General Comments
Spent 3 weeks in this noisy cabin 2nd June to 22nd June travelling from Rome to Dover. Friendly crew, excellent entertainment. However we found the noise and vibration when the ship was docking/departing/maneuvering to be horrendous.
