    Great stay, clean room and ship. Easy to check in, restaurants/bar and duty free on board. The leisure centre with pool/sauna was nice. Arcade room for kids/teens looked like fun but all we had was euros and card to pay so we couldn’t use it. Bingo was fun, staff were nice.

    Second cabin was near the engines so not as quiet as requested. Would have liked to have some instructions in Copenhagen pointing us towards the city centre or nearest public transport system - was a little confusing at that end.

    Lots of facilities on board, great selection in both buffet evening meal and buffet breakfast. One room was very quiet with comfortable beds. Easy to find the port in Oslo. Great sailing, loved the evening entertainment.

    We loved our commodore classic room with 2 windows for a wonderful view. The complimentary breakfast was delicious, and there were plenty of options. Comfortable bed and quiet room. It was nice to have a good break between boarding and departure as had time for some relaxation before exploring the boats facilities.

    Our cabin had no TV, and there was none in the bars to watch a televised event happening that night. High prices on board, and limited choice.. Would have been better if we brought our own food and drinks on with us (nobody checks)

    Good value

    We had Wi-Fi access, but we had to go the information desk to get it, they could digitilize the process or leave a paper in the room which is the case in the standard hotels.

    We booked a Commodore Class Cabine, the first surprise was 2 Piccolos (small bottles of sparkling wine) in our mini-fridge for free! The view from the room was very good, there were many acitivities. We were there with a toddler (20 months old) and there was a dedicated children room with a ball pool, painting activity etc. And lastly the included breakfast was really amazing, I was positively surprised.

    Don’t forget to book your diner once you get on the boat to be sure to eat where you want. We didn’t know we had to book a table and had to wait a long time.

    Prices onboard were a lot more affordable than we expected. Staff is super friendly and everything is clean.

    It was like a full cruise, not a ferry. multiple bars and restaurants. Room was below the cars and tiny, but it was expected and honestly we slept great. Hit the duty free for cheap alcohol and drink on the top deck.

    Unfortunately, there is no free wifi. There was no coffee after 8 pm.

    It's a very nice experience on the ship, especially the jacuzzi and outdoor pools. We were lucky that it was sunny outside, so we used it to swim. Everything is great.

    I was a little disappointed when we got to the room and the beds weren’t made and it looked like it hadn’t been prepped for guests, but other than that it was great. I also wish there was a schedule of events for bingo/music/trivia etc that was more available.

    I love this mini cruise trip. I love the activities and different things to do on the ship

    The best way to see Scandinavia!

    The cabin beds were so comfy, and the sheets felt super clean and fresh. In fact, the mattress and bedding were more comfortable than some hotels I've stayed in over the years! The ensuite bathroom was clean and functional - plenty of places to hang towels and a shelf to store toiletries. The shower was hot and had excellent water pressure. It's not specified in the room description, but the bathroom did have a hairdryer too. The cabin itself was clean and absolutely perfect for a one night stay. In the evening there was a music quiz and bingo - both free to enter and a really fun way to pass a couple of hours! Would definitely recommend :) The ferry terminal in Oslo is just a 10 minute walk from the city centre, which is very convenient. All the DFDS staff were very helpful. I'd also highly recommend the coffee from Coffee Crew - a large latte cost just over £5.50 which didn't seem too bad considering. The coffee tasted great!

    The prices were a little bit high in the ferry. And the rooms aren't big enough for 4 people. It's even smaller for just 2 person. If there is no window, there is no point in booking this ferry. Everything becomes good with the window view.

    Everything.

    Nothing.

    The sailing was amazing, gorgeous views. We chose 3 of the economy cabins for our group of 3 couples, we knew when we booked there could be some noise. The cabins were under the car decks which once the cars had all boarded was no problem. It was a quiet crossing, the days either side were holidays and very busy so we picked a good day! The only noise in the cabins was from the engine which you could hear a quiet droning but it didn’t cause any problem when sleeping. This was the only time really we were in the cabin as the facilities on the ship were fab. The duty free shop was amazing, loads of bargains for be had, clothes, fragrances, cosmetics, shoes, handbags, just a shame we didn’t have the weight allowance on our hold suitcase.

    There were little dirt on my sheets and pillows.

    Price is good, amazing view from the top deck. I choose the cheapest room, so there are no window but I was lucky because my room was very close from the door to the top deck. The pressure and temperature of showers in my room was also great than I have expected!
