This cruise was to celebrate my partners special birthday, and would be our first cruise together.
Firstly, before i get into the issues and some aspects that were not up to exceptions, we had a fantastic time cruising the Tracy Arm inside passage and the scenery was second to non. the weather was also on our side during our severn days.
We chose Celebrity for a more mature cruising experience with fewer children and think we made the correct choice, with some exceptions.
We found the cabin excellent. Plenty of storage space. Well maintained. Friendly and professional cabin steward (Ray) Champagne on arrival and hors d'oeuvres each evening. Room configuration is sofa by the balcony, which is fantastic. The cabins alternate with the bed by the balcony. But this is the best set up in my opinion.
Excellent location right by the forward elevators. (No external noise and no noise from above as that is the salon)
Stayed at Hyatt House hotel, next to Space Needle.
Did half day Seattle tour plus Boeing factory.
Decent hotel but expensive during cruise season.
Trip into town after dinner. Went dark quickly. Couple of hours is enough
