Creator's Key Takeaways

we were amazed to find out that this was actually the second highest grade of cabin on board the entire ship

my biggest gripe here was the lack of any power sockets or even USB ports

I found this really disappointing and on one or two occasions although thankfully rare we could smell cigarette smoke on our balcony

overall this cabin was absolutely incredible with the exception of a lack of plugs or USB sockets near the bed and Fred Olson's policy of allowing smoking on balconies

Creator's Tips & Advice

Choose a premier Suite that is more midships if you are sensitive to seasickness
Ask your cabin steward to remove the mini bar if you don't want it

YouTube Video Description

ad• Join me as I tell you all about our *massive* Premier Suite onboard Fred Olsen's Bolette! In this video, I'll show you around this beuatiful cabin, highlighting some things I loved, and a couple areas that could be improved! This was recorded during our media trip in November 2023, in Cabin 7003. A *massive* thank you to Fred Olsen for gifting me this cruise and giving me the opportunity to stay in such an incredible cabin! As this is a gifted trip, you will see a 'paid promotion' flag on this video but that does not mean I've been paid to portray Fred Olsen in a particular way. Instead, you'll get my usual honest opinion about what I loved, and what could be improved. Want to know more about Cruising with Matthew?
