Just because a ship has a smoking room (Island Princess) doesn't mean a nice cruise. My wife and I had a suite on the Island Princess last February and found that the smoking room is very inconvenient because it is forward and the suites are aft. This makes for a long walk just to puff. Since I am not a smoker, I didn't see my wife for long periods of time. I cancelled the last cruise for that reason and am now looking exclusively at HAL this spring.

Our ship, the Viking Prestige, docked close to the Vogartenstrasse metro stop, which is four stops from downtown Vienna on the red line.
