Which side of cruise ship is best for fjords?

Actually in the fjords it wouldn't matter as they are narrow waterways with steep sides on both sides. Unless you have one of the top class suites then you would spend most of your time in the public areas or out on deck so cabin side wouldn't matter.

It really doesn't matter! When you enter a fjord, the only way out is to go back again. The Norwegian Fjords are beautiful, but you'll see the scenery no matter which side of the ship you're on, the only difference is in whether you see it in the morning when you arrive, or in the evening when you're sailing out.

Are you planning on seeing the fjords from a boat on one of the many fjord cruises? While this can be an excellent experience, it can also be quite windy and chilly. Always pack a waterproof windbreaker. You probably don't need woolly mittens, but a pair of comfortable gloves is always a great idea.

Those mid-ship are more in demand and will be more expensive than those located fore and aft. This is partly because of convenience (much less walking down corridors on big ships) and partly because mid-ship is more stable. Cabins are often slightly larger since ships curve inwards towards either end.
