I was on the Star on the Tromso to Rekyjavik sailing last month. Haven't been on a larger ship, so can't make a direct comparison. Enjoyed the Star, yes it is an older ship but there were shows in the theatre every night, sometimes just one at 8pm and other times two shows 7pm and 9pm. Plenty of music around the ship - Excell Band (who were excellent!) in Bliss, piano and strings in the atrium, Gatsby's etc. There are some really nice quiet window seats on deck 6, which were great for reading with a view. It did feel a bit busy in the buffet in particular on sea days as no one was sitting outside. Hot tubs and pools were still being used though! Walked the deck 7 promenade to get the steps in and were really lucky to see whales breaching relatively close to the ship.
