Are towels provided on DFDS ferries?

Do we need to bring own towels to the boat ? - DFDS. ?Do we need to bring own towels to the boat ?? Helpful? No, they're provided.



Yes, towels are provided on all DFDS Seaways overnight ferry routes, such as the Newcastle-Amsterdam or Copenhagen-Oslo crossings. When you book a cabin (whether it is an Inside, Sea View, or premium Commodore cabin), you will find fresh bedding and at least one bath towel per passenger already placed in the room. In higher-tier Commodore De Luxe cabins, you often receive upgraded amenities, including luxury towels, bathrobes, and complimentary toiletries. If you are traveling on a short "day" crossing or if you have booked a "seat-only" fare (where available), towels are not provided, as there are no private shower facilities for those passengers. For those in standard cabins, the towels provided are basic but functional; if you are planning to use the onboard sauna or pool area (available on certain ships), you may want to bring your own swim towel or borrow an extra from the cabin, though the spa areas often provide their own separate linens for a small fee or as part of the entry price.

What is this? DFDS state that you are allowed to take your own food and soft drinks on board to be consumed in your cabin (no alcohol). I do like the DFDS Seaways evening buffet but it was going to work out at around 110 euros (each way) including one drink for each for us to dine here.
