MS Bolette (2000-built as "MS Amsterdam", last refurbished in 2023 by Fred Olsen, last refurbishment by HAL in 2018) is the fourth (and last) of the Rotterdam/R-class HAL-Holland America Line ships - together with ms Rotterdam (now Fred Olsen Borealis) (sistership), and also ms Volendam and ms Zaandam. The vessel (as "MS Bolette") joined the Fred Olsen Cruise Lines fleet in September 2020.

HAL Amsterdam / Fred Olsen Bolette cruise ship deck plan shows a total of 690 staterooms for 1338 passengers (max capacity is 1656) served by 615 crew-staff. The boat has 10 passenger-accessible decks (5 with cabins), 11 lounges and bars, 6 restaurants, 2 swimming pools (one with retractable glass roof), 2 Jacuzzis (outdoor whirlpool hot tubs), 12 elevators.

MS Amsterdam deck plan changes 2018 refurbishment review

During drydock 2018 (April 29 - May 9, done at Freeport Bahamas) the MS Amsterdam vessel received the following Suite cabin upgrades:

  • furnishings (sofas, chairs, headboards), carpeting, wall coverings, privacy curtains, draperies, bed runners, bed skirts, (vanity), new make-up vanities (quartz stone tops, modern lighting), dressers, dressing tables, nightstands, LED reading lights, wardrobes (with lighted closet rod)
  • cabin decors and amenities (espresso coffee machine, binoculars, free mimosas with in-cabin breakfasts)
  • USB outlet (on the bed's headboard), power outlets, LED ceiling lights
  • BOSE SoundDock (iPod stations) were added only in PS-Pinnacle Suites.
  • interactive HDTV system (Internet capabilities, free movies on demand)
  • All Suite bathrooms were also renovated.
  • The old Crow's Nest (panoramic bar lounge located forward on Deck 9) was replaced by EXC (Explorations Central).

Amsterdam ship's 2018 refurbishment was part of Holland America Line's USD 300 million fleet renovation program (scheduled for 2016-2018) that also included updating onboard entertainment, dining and suites fleetwide.

In 2016, Holland America updated MS Amsterdam's shipboard programming (enrichment, entertainment and children) replacing the old "Dancing With the Stars" with "BBC Earth" content.

The theatre lounge started hosting daily expert lectures, presentations, a nature-themed game show with BBC Earth screenings and introductions by the crews that filmed these series. A signature concert in the evenings was based on the "Frozen Planet" program (polar regions-themed) - a spectacular multimedia show with live musicians.

The children (Club HAL) facilities featured an explorer trail, workshops (including on journalism and filming), fact shows (animals, dinosaurs).

Holland America-themed cruises featured access to the BBC Earth series creators, sharing behind-the-scenes media and stories. Children had the opportunity to participate in filming workshops.
