Our family (2 adults/1 teen) sailed on Norwegian Spirit from Venice-Barcelona on June 24-July 6, 2015. We flew Lufthansa from Washington, DC-Frankfurt-Venice & from Barcelona-Munich-Washington, DC.

We arrived in Venice 24 hrs. prior to boarding & took the airport shuttle bus to Piazzale Roma. We selected the Best Western Hotel Olimpia for its proximity to the bus depot & the People Mover. The People Mover takes you to the entrance of the cruise terminal, which was followed by a long walk to the ship.

There wasn’t a line @ NCL when we arrived between 4-5 pm. Our stateroom—deck 9, mid-ship, portside, balcony--is advertised as 200 square feet. As you entered, to the right there was a closet with 6 corner shelves, a dozen or so hangars, & a safe (large enough for an I-pad). On the left was the bathroom which was divided into 3 areas—on the left a frosted sliding glass door to the toilet, in the center there was a sink, hairdryer & 4 small shelves & on the right a sliding glass door into the shower. This worked well for our family of 3. There were 2 beds that were pushed together, a love-seat sized couch that folded out into a bed, a chair @ the desk, a coffee maker, a TV mounted on the wall, a mini-bar fridge, 4 small drawers & 4 tiny corner shelves. The balcony had 2 chairs & a small table. The room was more than adequate for 2, but a little cramped for 3. If you wanted to keep the sofa bed open, it blocked access to the chair @ the desk & you had climb over the bed to get to the balcony.
