Volendam Review
Rating by category
Additional details
We stayed in the Pan Pacific in Vancouver, and when we woke up on the day of departure, the Volendam was moored right below our room.
Embarkation was straightforward, with the ship's staff being very helpful.
My overall impression of the ship is confusing. It's some 11 or 12 years old, had a major refit a few years but has a retro-early 60s feel. The overall theme is flowers, but it's incoherent. The Pinnacle restaurant, the Theatre and the Crow's Nest are probably the smartest parts of the ship; our cabin with its beige/faded ivory bathroom needed freshening up although it was clean and fully functional.

3383 on the Promenade Deck.Partial view, but generally OK.Windows mirrored, people walk past, but it didn't worry us.Handy for the Rotterdam Restaurant.Room generally good, but a refit must be due soon.
