Not all Holland America Line ships have self-service laundries, which means you may need to purchase a HAL laundry package.

Indeed, only two ships in the fleet have a self-service laundry – Amsterdam and Maasdam. These consist of coin operated washers and dryers, but the irons and ironing boards are free to use.

However, there are no self-service laundry facilities on Holland America Line’s other cruise ships, including Nieuw Statendam. So you will need to pay to have your pressing or laundry done.

The HAL laundry packages

That said, there are a range of HAL laundry packages available, some of which represent especially good value for money.

Laundry By The Bag

US$30 per bag.

All the laundry you can fit into one of the Holland America Line laundry bags. (Dry cleaning not included).

Unlimited Laundry

US$63 for a 7-day cruise.

US$126 for a 14-day cruise.

Have your clothes washed and ironed every day and enjoy a hassle free, wrinkle free cruise vacation. This is a great value HAL laundry package. It works out at just US$9 per day.

Unlimited Pressing

US$70 for a 14-day cruise.

HAL laundry conditions

It’s worth noting that it takes up to 48 hours for laundry and pressing to be returned. So, Holland America Line ask that your final laundry/pressing be received no later than 48-hours before disembarkation.
