Costa Kiel Cruise Reviews

I know Costa as a place for great Italian food, vibrant entertainment, beautiful ships and a well functioning service. Now I took just a short time out on a repositioning cruise around Western Europe. I wanted to sail on Costa Firenze, because she and her sister Venezia caused very positive and very negative reactions and I wanted to have an impression on my own before the ship will leave the ...

We took a cruise with Costa Firenze in July 2023 from Kiel to North Europa (Denmark & Norway). It was our first cruise with Costa and we were a little bit sceptical as our last cruise with a italien cruise company (MSC) was a huge disappointment. Embarkation in Kiel was really smooth, friendly stuff and everything great organized. Within 20 mins we were on Board. On Board we were welcomed by a ...

When one doesn’t eat well, one doesn’t travel well. We have to say that this was the worst cruise (of 7) that we’ve been on from the food perspective. For Italians, this should be seriously embarrassing. If you’re going to take this cruise due to the route or timing, then best go for the pizza at their payable afternoon-only restaurant La Nostra Pizza. It won’t be your best pizza, but it’s ...

After 3 years of wait book a 2 week cruise from Kiel to Marseille Start with food or the lack of you have to ask for everything (yes everything) even salt and pepper shakers. The dinning room is not much better The service was ok and the excursion were good when they didn't cancel the ones you picked Room was normal size with a non working fridge and a window view of a deck ...

Embarkation went well. Cabin was worn out. We had a grand suite but that was it. Food in the restaurants are way below any quality level. Even the pay restaurants are a joke. Had ordered a lobster it was inedible. Club diadema (private restaurant) it's a joke. I've never had such a bad meal on vacation. English is not understood on this ship. Italians do not speak this language. The ...

Boarding: boarding in Kiel took hours. I’m new to cruising, but it seemed rather disorganized with little possibility for seating. The terminal in Kiel was an uncomfortable , utilitarian facility. None of the screens were working, Costa Personnel were walking around with signs to tell people which groups were boarding. Ship’s decor: the ship has a musical “theme” which is so tasteless and ...

Review Summary The question is...Would I recommend taking a Baltic Cruise on Costa Pacifica? I will reluctantly say “Yes”. The Cruise Ship is well worth the money spent. The destinations are absolutely exquisite. The only hesitation I have is the food as it was terrible. Embarkation Getting to the Port in Kiel Germany was very easy. The Cruise Terminal is ~1 mile from the Kiel Train ...

This was my first cruise with Costa (Baltic Sea 12 days), and honesty I was very sceptic about chosing this company (mostly due to the accident with Costa Concordia). We cruise a lot with our family and tried many cruise companies but Costa surprised me totally! The ship Costa Pacifica – it is not the biggest and most splendorous one, but clean and very well maintained, which is unusual for ...

First of all Good prices - Wifi was too expensive and not properly received - The ship cleaned all day long and the pool well kept Our Cabin was properly done every time we needed by Ian Magdaraog - Astonished entertainment by people singing different languages - Good and various food for all tastes - Hospitality Service well managed with the help of foreign languages - Mainly ...
