regnig Posted April 2, 2017 #1 Share Posted April 2, 2017 I have a friend interested in taking a cruise on the Koningsdam and they have asked 2 questions for which I need answers from someone who has actually sailed on her as my only experience is on the Vista Class ships (YEA, just made 3 Star!!). 1. Do the regular Veranda Staterooms (ie. VD, VC catagories) have refrigerators (ok I already know some call them "coolers") in them? I seem to remember a discussion that the stateroom descriptions on the HAL web cite left a lot to be desired for this ship. 2. No lectures please but the other question is about where one can smoke. Please note, Host Walt has closed the smoking thread so I've got no option but to ask here. HAL's Smoking Policy reads as follows: The designated smoking areas for all ships are as follows unless otherwise noted. ººCasino - Designated areas for active slot players, excluding the ms Oosterdam and ms Eurodam which are nonsmoking ººOak Room on ms Noordam only, including cigars and pipes. ººSea View (Retreat) Bar/Pool on designated side of the ship ººSun Bar on ms Koningsdam and ms Nieuw Statendam only Does that mean that on the Koningsdam smoking is allowed at both the Sea Bar AND the Sun Bar? Many thanks in advance for the answers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovely other Posted April 2, 2017 #2 Share Posted April 2, 2017 1. Yes, the regular veranda cabins have a fridge 2. I saw smoking in some areas of the slots in the casino and at the right hand side of the sea view pool. I never frequented the outside bars such as the sun bar so can't tell you more .

regnig Posted April 2, 2017 Author #4 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Lovely, thanks for the refrigerator confirmation and noting your observation on the smoking location. Thanks too Peter as in that link the language is much more precise than what I quoted from their web site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
