We just got off the Nieuw Statendam on Sunday. What a wonderful ship! The food was the best I have ever had at sea, and the service was phenomenal. The 'one size fits all' robes that are in the staterooms don't actually fit all, but if you are plus sized, you can ask your steward and he will get you a larger robe. We found that the best coffee on board, and some of the best I've ever had, is at the Grand Dutch Cafe.
Here's a tour of the Oceanview Stateroom we had for the cruise: ua-cam.com/video/oAZCBrm8Ml8/v-deo.html You can try looking through Holland America's website to see if they have tours of additional room types.
They do! It's located on Deck 2 Forward. The library is a very nice space and it's where we interviewed Bettyann Chun, the Cruise and Travel Director for our voyage: ua-cam.com/video/oLmCeg4B0J8/v-deo.html
ilove it
Excellent video. One note - the seating in the World Stage that is larger is probably bariatric seating for larger people, and not love seats.

Glad you enjoyed your cruise! We also enjoyed coffee from the Grand Dutch Cafe!
Very helpful tips! Thank you!
I was really looking forward to a tour of each of the room offerings.

Do they have a library?
