Norwegian Cruise Line - Norwegian Bliss Reviews

Loved the Observation lounge it was my favorite place on the ship. The entertainment was wonderful. Love the Jersey boys, the Beatles tribute band, The comedian and Six. Getting on the ship in Los Angeles was ridiculous it was the worst embarkation that I’ve ever done. It took us Almost 2 hours to get on the ship. many people who arrived after us got ahead of us in line because they did not have a system set up. Many shows were already booked by the time we got on board and we arrive to the port before noon. We enjoyed the food for the most part but got sick from the specialty restaurant Q. The ribs were so greasy that I didn’t feel well after for the entire night. My brother also did not feel well after eating the ribs Included in his platter Sampler meal.

Staff is amazing, ship is beautiful, everything was great. Id do this ship again

Cabo San Lucas was the best port!

Horrible service throughout the ship. With an exception of Cagneys rest. And the Italian rest. Only one show worth mentioning.. jersey boys was great. Missed being able to take the tender to Cabo .. because we were not aware we needed a reservation to disembark. Also needed a reservation just to eat in the main dining room.. horrible! We will not use Norwegian again.

I was surprised to see how small the balcony cabins were. Barely enough space to get in/out of the bed. Closet flush against the sofa. Just too tight for two adults.

Problems galore starting with not being picked up at airport when transfers had been prepaid. Offered refund was not fully what was paid. Food and service very poor. No table service in any lounge forcing us to queue up at bars with no system for serving in order. Dining package hard to leverage due to demand. When we could get seats, made to feel 2nd class when told what we could NOT order on offered menus. Reservation system made seeing shows impossible. A la carte pricing on menus very high. Prefer fixed prices. Overall, would rather pay more up front and not feel nickel and dimed. Large crowds resulted in many long lines and impossibility of using elevators.

Need Chinese broadcast and service

Aside from a couple minor first time cruiser things we weren't aware of, this cruise had everything we wanted. The staff was exceptionally friendly, especially with my son. Complimentary dining was as good or better as the specialty restaurants. The locations were a blast to visit. I only wish we had more time in ports and that the cruise wasn't already over.

Thank for the friendly staff. Everyone help us out so much. Did have any issues except for the weather. Which is not any of the ships fault. We did get to see Ketchican but maybe some other day. Thank you for the time and memories.

I'll start by saying, we had little to no wait everywhere we went. We were treated almost every night in the main dining room with a window seat. Every nook and cranny of this ship was special. We booked the spa for the week and sat and watched glaciers and whales from our lounger. The food was amazing at the local and the main dining room, buffet is what you would think it would be. Entertainment was hit and miss, the show Sixx was a waste of good talent, however The Jersey Boys was a standing ovation! On board it was odd to see only a handful of people dressed up. Very low key. My complaints had to do with communication. The communication on the ship was terrible. The accents and/or the overhead system were garbled - very hard to understand. ZERO communication about debarking. Our room steward did absolutely nothing special in our room at all and the last night there was only a business card on our bed. We happened to be in the room when he came by for turn down service. I asked about debarking and our luggage. He told us to just take our luggage with us, it would be easier for him and then we wouldn't have to find it in the terminal later. Definitely not what I'd call top notch communication nor service from our room steward, however we got our information that evening from guest services. and debarkation was a breeze by having them take our luggage. Overall I give this a 4.5, only because of the communication, our steward and the lack of entertainment excitement..........but it was truly a wonderful trip.

New ship is beautiful. Food in buffet not many options and not as good as on other NC L ship. Did not like Texas Q speciality Restaurant at all. Cagney’s Never disappoints great service and meal! Entertainment was excellent!!! We could not dock in Ketchikan due to weather and night time stop in Victoria is too short to do much of anything. Excursions out of Juneau and Skagway were really nice except there is not enough time after to spend looking around the port town.

Loved the Bliss, loved Alaska....it was the vacation of a lifetime!

We had never cruised Norwegian and wasn’t aware that you had to prebook so many things. We only got to play the go karts once, availability at restaurants and shows was awful. Buffet food was good. Complimentary dining rooms food tasted like the same as the buffet. Ship was gorgeous. My room was great.
