Thread: staterooms with balconies vs suites with balconies on the dawn

Is $200 worth upgrading from stateroom balcony to suite balcony. do they have public laundry machines on this ship? We have only 1 other cruise to compare to which was the Grand Princess. Is the Dawn any where close to the quality of ship? What would the size of the balconys be

Two points of clarification, please.

1. Are you asking about the Dawn Princess (you mentioned Princess in your question as having cruised with them before) or the NCL Dawn? Get's confusing when cruiselines name their ships the same!

2. What category suite? There are several categories and the cabin and balcony sizes differ.

Char, in almost all cases upgrading from a balcony to a suite for $200 is a good thing!

Is the Dawn a good ship to be on compared to The Grand Princess. The Grand Princess was our first and only ship we have been on. Just want to make a good choice that is all. good price on the Dawn and reasonable upgrades. If anyone has been on the Dawn it would be nice to hear your comments. Just wondering if the suites are that much better than the staterooms. Info says both have private balconies but just wondering if the suite is larger than the stateroom or what would be the difference if any. They each have mid ship ones available. Sorry if I am not explaining myself on my questions. any info will help as to make a good choice.

Go with the $200 upgrade!

We cruised on Dawn Princess quite a few times when she was in the Caribbean. Loved that ship -- not too big and not too small! Very well planned ship -- so easy to get around.
