Norwegian Star Reintroduced
If you think you know Norwegian Star, think again. Recently refurbished as part of The Norwegian Edge programme, the ship underwent extensive enhancements to its staterooms, public spaces, restaurants, bars and lounges.
We arrived in Lisbon two days before the cruise using NCL's shuttle from the airport to our hotel, also booked through NCL, The Marriott. It is a very good hotel we were very pleased with our room and the food. The only downside was the long wait for room on arrival. If you have not been to Lisbon before you may find the Marriott a little out of the way of the old town. We had been before and since the Lisbon Zoo was a short walk from the hotel we spent a day at this excellent zoo. The shuttle to the ship was well organised as was embarkation. Our balcony cabin was very clean and very comfortable. We ate mostly in the MDR and found the food very good. We had five meals in speciality restaurants where we found the food to be excellent. Entertainment is good though there is a need for some new productions from the ships singers and dancers. We had seen both productions they performed before. The two British singers and violinist were excellent. Excursions were very good and lots of choice in most ports. The organisation prior to getting on the buses needs looking at. Excuses about buses being late because of traffic are not good enough and people blocking exits need to be made to move by security. We found the crew to be very helpful and provide excellent service. We miss the turndown service that used to happen on NCL ships. Public areas on the ship were always very clean and the ship never felt too crowded. Disembarkation was very easy and a shuttle tooks us directly to the airport. We thoroughly enjoyed our cruise on the Star and look forward to the next time. Highly recommended.
We picked this cruise because of the excellent itinerary and were not disappointed. We had 5 ports in Norway, another 5 in Iceland, and 2 in Scotland (3 at sea). We were to also go to the Faroe Islands but that port was cancelled before departure. The Star is an older ship. It was clean but not spotless. The staff was all wonderful. The specialty restaurants were excellent. The Main Dinning rooms and buffet were so-so. The food was often cold and I think pre-made (like the omelets served in the main dinning room). Sheehan's was at best average. We tendered at the last few ports. The tendering at Edinburgh (Newhaven) was a mess - it took a couple of hours to get off and there were long, long lines to get back on. We only took 2 excursions thru NCL and they were fine. Overall we had a great time and loved the itinerary and the staff but the ship itself was average.
More than half way thru our cruise now. Boarded in Reykjavik. Probably took about an hour from arrival at port to actually stepping on ship. Was organised and staff working hard. We asked for an upgraded cabin as we had booked early and prices fell dramatically, so we really appreciated our upgraded balcony cabin. It was on 11th floor and there was some noise from above, but no big deal to us. Our room beautifully looked after by Fnu, we didn’t ask for anything but he always greeted us by name and was lovely and friendly. Glad of the robes to use when walking to and from the hot tubs. Hot tubs were lovely and hot!! There is a channel you can leave your tv on at night, it goes dark and only flashes up and plays music when it is possible to view the northern lights!! So everyone who had tv left on this channel races up to deck 12/13 in middle of night for a look. Don’t forget to have your camera on night mode! Dinner was great in both main dining rooms. Staff were wonderful! O’sheehans was also great. Buffet was busy, busy, busy! Didn’t eat there much, but was fine for a quick meal. Had dinner at two of the special restaurants, but maybe expected too much, because we both felt glad that we hadn’t paid extra for them!! I paid extra to upgrade to unlimited wifi and it was great. Was able to keep in touch with the kids and grand kids back home via messenger and WhatsApp, emails and FB and IG. Worked really well for what I wanted. The ship uses Starlink. Ports were all great. Some of the smaller ports like Nanotalik were completely overrun by tourists wandering their streets with not much to do or spend their money on!! Scenery tho was amazing. Quite casual dressing on NCL, which I liked. Shows were good but get there at least 15 mins early for seats. The Star is older style ship but very nice and comfy, only thing was lack of a good lounge type area with big glass windows to sit and enjoy all the scenery. We struggled to find public areas to just sit and watch out windows as we travelled the gorgeous fjords. So glad we had a balcony!! We really enjoyed our cruise and would definately be happy to do a NCL cruise again.
