Room Service Survey

Since room service and it's now cruise critic notorious "convenience" is the hot topic for the foreseeable future. Wondering how many people order room service, and what you on average order?

We typically order just light breakfast items. Coffee, rolls/Danish, yogurt/granola.

We typically order room service about 6 or 8 times during a 7 day... but in a suite.

The 64,000 dollar question is what sort of convenience charge will be associated with this activity...

We never used room service on an NCL cruise. I thought the menu absolutely sucked to the point of almost being a joke. It was like they didn't want people to order anything, so they made the choices so limited. By contrast, on DCL, we ordered something almost every night.

I agree with this 100%. We've only ordered room service once ever on NCL because the menu sucks. I'm interested to see the "enhanced menu." While I think $7.95 is ridiculous for room service, I'd pay a couple bucks for room service for breakfast if they offered a full menu.

Every morning we order 2 pots of coffee, a fruit plate and a sweet roll. Definitely not worth the upcharge.

We too never ever have ordered room service nor their $5 cardboard pizza.

This is what we order as well.

That's pretty close to our morning order, too.

Room service menu sucks. Once was enough.

We order breakfast a couple of times on a cruise and the teenagers order the pizza on a couple of late nights too.

We never order either but would definitely like the option for free.

We have never had room service since we like going to the restaurants. DD (7) looks forward to the buffet every morning.

49 days at sea with Norwegian and we have never order room service. There is always a buffet open, blue lagoon/ O'sheenan's plenty of food options and normally not a long walk.

Even while staying in a suite, we would run to grab something rather than call the butler and have it delivered.

We order light breakfast items, juice and coffee.

I really hope this fee is truly just a "test" for 2 weeks. They've already jacked up a bunch of other fees since I paid our final payment. :mad:

We usually do this as well. We particularly enjoy it on port days as we like the wake up call that comes with it.

Have also never used room service. Seems silly with all the snack and dining options available.

Menu does not compare to other lines especially in lower catagories. But to me the main problem is NCLs continuing rule and price changes with little or no warning...this makes me less likely to trust them and that carries over to other areas of the cruise contract & safety issues. They need to be clear, straight - forward and honest with customers. It would be in every ones interest, to implement price & rule changes to cruises not yet booked or at least prior to penalty free cancilation date. Any loss of revenue would be off set by good will, loyalty and likelihood of NCL being recommended to family and friends, something the line has benefitted from in the past.

never cruised ncl

have used room service on dcl which was excellent

would order tea, coffee and pastry for breakfast but would not pay to do so

Last cruise ordered breakfast every morning because I get up very very early(5:30AM) and dd does not. coffee, ice water with lemon,fruit, yogurt to keep me regular:). We did order sandwiches once. On other cruises have ordered late snacks twice(wings, dessert).

Even though there is a coffee machine in the cabin, I still liked the fresh brewed and did not have to go in search of coffee in the morning.

We generally order room service every morning with light items. We are not big breakfast eaters. Yogurt fruit croissant and most important.... Coffee on the balcony. Great way to start the day nice and calm without the masses in the buffet

Don't get me wrong once we are up and moving we might slide into the Buffett for the always yummy BACON.

Never used it.

I walk to the buffet, load up a plate and take it back.

I cruised twice on NCL and never used Room Service once. I enjoy getting up early and walking to get my breakfast.

Never used it. I don't like eating in my cabin.

Coffee, banana for me, pastry for DH. While we were happy to tip, we will not pay for this option.

Always use room service on port days for a quick breakfast . Will usually order a sandwich / salad once or twice . Will not use this service if it costs me an extra $7.95 . NCL shame on you !
