River cruising is just wonderful and whilst some aspects of the emerald sky cruise were great it wasnt always 5 star service and some of the trips/entertainments were changed.The ship itself is lovely and the views amazing from the balcony room but we were often docked against the Viking cruise or other so there was no view all day. The bar staff were the worst disappointment as they often seemed to busy to offer you a friendly service and were quite rude on a couple of occasions Other passengers felt the same as us and commented on it.We paid for the premium drinks package but found we had to wait a long time to get the drinks.Last year we found the bar staff wonderful.Overall this year was not as good as last year when we went on the emerald star and the reason is the staff. Even some of the dining staff were a bit abrupt .

The best parts of the cruise was the visit to Budapest..a truly fascinating city and the trip to a Slovenian family for the afternoon.Overall the route of this cruise is wonderful and the Danube was simply lovely.

Lovely cabin, we have stayed in this one before. The tv choice of films etc is a great idea when you just want to relax in your cabin.
