We upgraded to a better room as it had a seaview, but it turned out the description was wrong and we ended up paying more for no window anyways. This is probably a booking.com fault with the description I don't know, but I do wish the cruise would have put us in a room with a window as one was free becuase of this. Info/reception were nicely staffed but they couldn't help us and blamed booking.com , I am not sure who writes the ads but be carefull when upgrading, seaview doesn't mean window cabin!

The ship was amazing, the restaurant was top notch, we dined in the bar a few times. The salmon sandwiches are to die for. There is a duty free shop on board to buy cheaper drinks and refreshments. There was a concert/Club entertainment which we really enjoyed. There is a kid softplay area and a PS5 for the teens.

More place for the luggage would be nice.

Very nice short cruise to Helsinki. The kids loved the play area. Nice coffee close to the kids area. We didn't try the restaurants as I have too much food restrictions now.

Our cabin was, unfortunately directly above the vehicle loading doors and it is incredibly loud with huge vibrations felt when the ferry calls at Arland. We were awoken on both outward (around 12.30am) and return (around 4am) journeys. Our son, on deck 10 wasn’t disturbed so would definitely advise booking a better cabin.

Superb value for money and an excellent way to see two brilliant European capital cities, as well as the Swedish Archipelago. Cabins are clean, beds are comfortable and all inclusive buffet (about £42) was incredible!

Confusing rules about what food/drinks are allowed on board, and heard other people being given different answers

A great cheap way to see two awesome cities, and a great opportunity to experience a cruise if like us that kind of thing isn't usually in the budget. An easy process to get on and off the boat at stops. Experienced very little sea sickness (as someone who is usually sick this was a great bonus)

Really enjoyed our stay. Comfortable cabin, great panoramic deck, lovely dining options and very helpful staff

Overuse of AC, the ship is too cold, bring an extra sweater. Food on board is very expensive, better to bring your own.

Great value for money. Enough time to visit Helsinki with Suomelinna. Cabins are large, clean and bright.

Everything on board is expensive

Worth the very small price. Everything was nice, would recommend the SPA 100%

Be careful with registration. It's a little bit more complicated than on the official site, but it's also cheaper. First, you have to write in message personal data(name, surname, date of birth, and gender) of all people for whom you are booking this cruise. Then please ask you for your registration number because you will need it in the terminal for check-in. I also booked breakfast, and while paying for it, I saw the registration number and thought it was the registration number for all booking, not only for breakfast. And it was my mistake. Because in terminal when I tied to check in I was said that by this registration number I didn't have registered cabin. But then I called by phone on this booking, they immediately answered and gave me my registration number. And the problem was solved. Thank you for being fast.

The cruise is great. Beds are comfortable. Staff is nice. Breakfast is delicious, you can find a variety of food. Price is low. And you can bring your own food on board.

I liked everything

I liked the beautiful scenery, the price, and the all you can drink buffet.

Stayed in July 2024

I don’t really have anything to complain about, because I think what I got was far more worth the price I paid. The only thing that I thought was a little pitty were the big glass fronts at the front of the upper deck. It would have been a lot nicer to sit there in a nice breeze than being fried under a glass roof in the hot sun😁 but it was still a great spot to sit and enjoy the sea.

Perfect if you have been to Stockholm before and have seen everything there😁. Booked this trip instead of a hotel in Stockholm as I have wanted to go to Helsinki for years and it was way cheaper than a regular hotel with similar standards would have been during summertime. The view you have while crossing the archipelago is priceless anyway, the cabins are comfortable, WiFi is not steady obviously depending on where you are at sea, but still ok. The buffet restaurant was not the cheapest, but considering the selection of food and drink and that there is even wine and beer included in the price makes it worth if you are really hungry. There are other á la carte restaurants on board with good selections as well as a pub and a duty free super market. I absolutely loved the spa and would totally recommend to go there right after the day in Helsinki. The ferry leaves in the afternoon in Stockholm and arrives in Helsinki in the morning around 9 o‘clock which will give you about 8 hours of free time to explore the city before going back on board and back to Stockholm over night. I liked Helsinki but in my opinion it’s in no comparison to Stockholm, so just flying to Stockholm to take this trip would not be what I would recommend. There are Hop-On-Hop-Off busses waiting at the port, so for someone who has never been to Helsinki I think this the best way to get around. They will take you to the biggest sights and allow you to explore what you like as they drive quite frequently. Combined with a voi day ticket for under 10 Euros I got to see all sights, spend time in the park at the waterfront, have lunch and shop on the market all relaxed within the few hours waiting for the ferry.

they cannot handle the booking.com booking number in their system, so not possible the online checkin, they react slowly on the messages

great breafast in the bufe

I would have like a few more dinner choices, as I do not frequent buffets very often.

The choices for breakfast at the cafe were great and it was opened early enough to enjoy a coffee and breakfast before departing the ship.

Internet access is a big issue. Most part of the sail, internet not available. On board dining prices can be reduced.

Ship was too good, perfect sailing. High value for money.

Great idea to rest and entertain on a short cruise while getting to Helsinski!

Stayed in June 2024

Honestly, my only complaint is that the internet connection was super bad, but at least the TV worked well.

I very much enjoyed the cruise. The ship was beautiful, there were some shops and restaurants, but most importantly it was possible to sit on the upper deck and enjoy the views. My room (Economy) was big enough, comfortable and clean. I very much appreciated having a small fridge there. It wasn't an issue at all that there was no window because at least it was dark and I could sleep well (+it was quiet too). Both ports are conveniently located close to the city center of Helsinki/Stockholm and can be reached by foot as well as transport.

Very loud music

Loved getting to see the entire Stockholm archipelago!

Stayed in June 2024

There could be more seating areas on the upper deck. During the nice time of the day it was quite packed and the tables were rare.

Highly recommend to enjoy the buffet (loads of seafood) and premium breakfast for one of the days. Overall very affordable experience that we would do again.

There was an orange light in the room that was irritating but would’ve just bought an eye mask.

The value for money was exceptional and the rooms were adequate.

Amazing cruise liner with restaurants, pub, kids zone, table tennis - we enjoyed everything during our stay ! And children as well)

Sleeping arrangements (bunks ) could be better plus off and on there was vibrations that caused some inconvenience in the first few hours while we slept

Excellent entertainment on the cruise very pleasant environment despite rains and rough weather on the travel day

Stayed in August 2022

Not many options for food and restaurants, too cold inside. Wifi doesn't work. The buffet is expensive and only premium dining is overpriced. Inside the cruise, the heating is not good.

Good price if you book from booking.com. The cruise Staff are very polite and helpful. The bar and restaurant staff r very gentle. Check-in and check-out are very easy processes. The location is very close to Stockholm city.
