Norwegian Cruise Line: Norwegian Dawn

Dawn Class review covers: Norwegian Dawn, Norwegian Star

Accommodations

Layout: NCL ships are not noted for large staterooms, but all have a small sitting area with sofa, chair, and table. Most bathrooms are compartmentalized with a sink area, shower, and toilet separated by sliding glass doors. Every cabin has adequate closet and drawer-shelf storage, as well as limited bathroom storage. Suites have walk-in closets.

Amenities: Cherrywood cabinetry, tropical decor, mirrored accents, a small refrigerator, tea/coffeemaker, personal safe, broadband Internet connection, duvets on beds, a wall-mounted hair dryer over the dressing table, and bathrobes for use during the cruise are standard. Bathrooms have a shampoo and bath gel dispenser mounted on the shower wall as well as a magnifying mirror. Suites have whirlpool tubs, entertainment centers with CD/DVD players, and concierge and butler service.

Good to Know: Family-friendly staterooms interconnect in most categories, enabling families of nearly any size to find suitable accommodations. Nearly every stateroom has a third or fourth berth, and some can sleep as many as five and six. Twenty-four staterooms on Norwegian Dawn and 20 staterooms on Norwegian Star are designed for wheelchair accessibility.
