Hi - Has anyone taken the Tallink Silja Baltic Queen recently and have a review of it? The reviews I’ve found are often many years old and/or minimal info.
Our priorities are a good night’s sleep in a nice room with good beds, and good food. It will be 2 adults and 4 kids, ages 10 to 18, so we likely will get 2 cabins. I was planning to get one of the better cabins, within reason. We don’t care about shows or activities. In fact, the quieter the better.
Background: We’re visiting Stockholm and Helisinki (in that order) in August 2025 but would like to visit Tallinn too. I’m choosing between either going straight to Helsinki and doing a day trip to Tallinn at some point in our stay vs taking the cruise ferry to Tallinn, staying 1 night, and then taking the ferry to Helsinki. I’d prefer the 1 night option, since a day trip seems a bit hectic but reviews online have indicated that the cruise ferries from Stockholm to Helsinki are quite a bit nicer than those to Tallinn, so I just want to consider that before I decide. The pictures of the cabins and restaurants on the Tallink Silja website definitely made me more inclined towards the Stockholm-Helsinki route than Stockholm-Tallinn but maybe they just weren’t doing it justice. Also, it’s just 1 night.
Thanks!
