Norwegian Dawn - Inside Stateroom
Comfortable and spacious, the Inside Stateroom is great for anyone on a tighter budget. Still, there's no window and not an enormous amount of room compared to many of the other staterooms and suites available.
Norwegian Dawn Dining
Freestyle Dining is an innovative dining experience that many cruise lines try to copy, but only offered by Norwegian. With seven dining rooms on the Norwegian Dawn cruise ship, many dining times, and lots of menu items, being indecisive has never been this much fun!
Smaller restaurants offer fun and/or intimate eating experiences. Come to La Trattoria, which serves wonderful Italian dishes. The Garden Cafe Kid's Cafe has a light menu, as well as hot dogs and burgers for the kids.
The Bamboo Blue Lagoon is a 24-hour food court offers hamburgers, vegetable wok dishes, and everything in between.
Aqua Main Restaurant provides an atmosphere and menu that's reminiscent of an upscale and trendy city restaurant. Aqua has plenty of choices for both the indulgent and the health-conscious.
The other main restaurant, Impressions, offer contemporary cuisine that will please the most discerning palate. Favorites include the Broiled Lobster Tail, Duck a l'Orange, and the Fillet of Beef Wellington. This retro-restaurant has wall-size reproductions of Impressionist artwork evoking Paris in the 1900s.
Or you can spice things up at Salsa, where the Norwegian cuisine will have your taste buds dancing! This modern tapas bar features tastes that are Spanish, Middle Eastern, and Mexican in origin. The ever-changing variety of hot and cold tapas means the menu is always new and exciting.
Venture over to the Java Cafe where the frozen espressos and cappuccinos are always made to order.
