Review for a Transatlantic Cruise on Zuiderdam

This is our 15th cruise, and second on HAL. Holland America's service is outstanding as is the food. Yes, the Zuiderdam is an older ship, but, a well maintained and clean vessel. This ship is for the older crowd, as it doesn't have climbing walls or ice skating rings. What is does have is almost daily Culinary classes, which I rate a 3, and too many daily Trivia Pursuit games in the Crow's ...

EMBARKATION. It was a breeze at the terminal in Civitavecchia as half of the Zuiderdam’s passengers were staying on from the previous cruise. With no lines, we were processed in minutes. Within 30 minutes boarding was opened and we all headed for the ship to start our adventure. Holland America Lines, Zuiderdam was built in 2002 and holds almost 2,000 passengers. We had traveled on her once ...

We booked our first HAL cruise (22 night Mediterranean) with a little apprehension after reading the many mediocre reviews on this site. I will preface this review by saying that my husband and I are both 47 and our main concern was that the ship would be old and tired and the clientele ready for the nursing home!
We have cruised with Royal Caribbean on 5 previous occasions, and with Celebrity ...

Chose this cruise for the wonderful ports and the dates as it was my 60th. Stayed in a Neptune Suite on deck 6 and it was perfect. Initially after booking I had read quite a few negative reviews, but to the contrary we couldn't fault anything. The food was excellent with plenty of choice. The Pinnacle Grill was well worth a visit for the most wonderful steak. We could also breakfast there (part of ...

We found the ship, although dates, clean and well kept. Our stateroom was small but functional. The bed was comfortable and there was adequate storage. The balcony furniture left a lot to be desired but we were still able to enjoy great views. The two thinks lacking that we will look for on our next cruise ship were free wifi and do it yourself laundry. The wifi on the ship was expensive and ...

My wife and I have just returned from a 22 day Holland America Line Collectors’ Cruise called Adriatic and Mediterranean Dream on the Zuiderdam.
If you want to cruise on a ship where the toilet malfunctioned 6 times, the sewerage came through the floor twice, there were constant smells of sewerage in the hallways, the room furniture was past its use by date, hand hygiene is not enforced ...

This was our first HAL cruise and we had a great time. Our cabin with verandah was very nice, the bed was very good. we didn't have any post drydock issues! Our stewards were friendly and efficient. We were really impressed with the food: so many options, good quality and fast service. We ate once in the Pinnacle grill, and all other evenings in the MDR. We had late seating and a table for ...

This was our first cruise, Holland America Line ms Zuiderdam, 11-NIGHT ADRIATIC DREAM. We booked a Signature Suit, SS, Location: Upper Verandah Deck.
Check in was fast and efficient, off to a good start.
The suite was a reasonable size with plenty of wardrobe space and a safe. The large bed was five stars, very comfortable. The bathroom was a little old fashioned but OK. The suite was not ...

The public toilets - at least one was out of action every day in every area. Nearly all the coffee machines were consistently out of service. ...
