    Good Points: The food was surprisingly good in the restaurants - very nice presentation.
    The cabin with a small sitting area had a little more room than outside cabins on other ships.


    Bad Points: Public restrooms were NOT clean - one restroom asked not to throw the used paper in the toilet but in an OPEN trashcan. YUCK.
    Food in the buffet, especially during lunch, was very poor.
    There is no launderette on the ship, so if you stay for 15 days you have to use their laundry service, which is expensive.
    Our cabin was on deck 6, but we couldn't sleep from the noise of the engines. Terrible. Our cabin was 6250.
    Very mediocre entertainment. Only twice a movie.
    All ports but one, were visited during Sundays or some local holiday. All shops closed!


    General comments: Don't travel on this ship.

    On Tuesday the Captain of the Norwegian Dream reduced the A/C to gain more speed, he shut the entire A/C down for the ship. The temperature inside was intolerable. We went outside, to sleep in the rain for 8 hours. The Captain decided to repair the vessel for two days, chipping and banging above the Pizzeria, it was like being inside a barrel as someone beat on it. We had three days of a 7 day vacation ruined due to the lack of care from NCL staff. Not a great cruise but I guess you get what y ...

    Stay at home or find another cruise line. It was our first and last cruise with NCL.

    First time with NCL and possibly the last, not the best ship, staff not that nice, food not the best, waiting for meals was rubbish, never again on this ship that is a promise.

    After a two and half hour wait just to get on the Norwegian Dream it was so disorganised by NCL to the point of us feeling ill from all the nonsense time waiting , freestyle dinning was awful not like other cruises we have been on, really impersonal, NCL advertise Las Vegas style evening shows that was a joke! Only one night was good with a Bollywood production. Everything else was more like holiday camp. The $10 per person per day automatic tips we asked to be taken off our final bill this is n ...

    We started out as having a bad time with NCL Cruises. We flew into Houston Bush Airport the day before, and stayed in the Mariott until the next day. Then, we purchased transfers to the port. We waited for hours for a bus to come. Finally, when it came, it made a wrong turn and cost us 15 minutes extra driving time.

    Once we arrived at port, we got onboard very quickly(20 mins) and were in our room. 8221 was an average sized room, one with a pullout sofa and 2 beds so all 3 of us could sleep c ...

    This was my first and last cruise with NCL Cruises. We had a good time on the Norwegian Dream, only because we chose to despite the fact that our trip was seriously compromised by engine trouble that this company has been dealing with for months, even years. Instead of being true to their customers, they take the attitude that they cant help it, so we must accept the fact that we missed a port, had less time in ports, missed the whole inside passage, and docked 7 hours late. While they did he ...

    I cruised from Seattle on there 10 day cruise to Alaska and back on the NCL Norwegian Dream. I thought it was a good cruise. I like lot of people read their reviews. Like a lot of trips, it's what you make of it. I would recommend it.
