Thomson Spirit Cruise Ship, Thomson Spirit, Thomson Cruises
Hotel Information
Hotel Description:
Formerly Holland America's Nieuw Amsterdam, this elegant, classic cruiseliner brings you 21st century cruising pleasure. It has all the modern facilities you could wish for - from a two storey show lounge to the fantastic health club overlooking the ocean. Hungry? You'll find everything from 24-hour dining to a sophisticated à la carte restaurant for that romantic occasion. Thomson Spirit is the same length and size of ships normally carrying 1500 passengers but she'll take over 200 less. This means more room for you to stretch out on the sundeck, larger cabins, more privacy, more space for fun and games, and even more attention from those obliging staff loading...

Like a lot of people we always wondered if a cruise was for us. A late booking for the 7 night Jewels of the Med cruise proved it was. Thomson's arrangements and admin were flawless from start to finish. All the staff were extremely friendly and...

Just returned from an 8 night cruise on the Spirit. Every aspect of our cruise was excellent. The last few years we have been using NCL and Princess, but coming back to Thomson cruises was the right move. A special mention must go to Stephen Guy and his team, by far the best we have ever cruised with.

Just returned from the best holiday I have ever had. I went on the QE2 in 2001 and the experience I had on this ship was 10 times better. We read reviews before we left and the few criticisms we read were not what we experienced. It was the right size,...

This was my second cruise onboard the Thomson Spirit, and even though it was slightly less disappointing than the 'Fjordland Wonders' Itinerary two years ago, we still felt that our two weeks was a great experience.
