I wanted to visit the British Isles and after an exceptional cruies to Alaska, was ready to experience the same here. Unfortunately that was not the case. I was totally disappointed. The ship was in dire need of renovations, my cabin has shredded carpet, poor plumbing, ( bathroom flooded, toilet clogged). I understand maintenance issues happen, but when I have to wait in excess of 2 hours to get ...
Regal Princess; Southampton to Southampton Aug 2023.
The ship is ok!
I do think it has a confusing layout, you are only able to go to some floors in some lifts, so you have to get off one lift to walk down corridors, past dozens of rooms, to get to the next lift to catch that one to get to the lower floors, which you need to do for getting off the ship and to go to the bars/ ...
Chose this cruise for overview of British Isles. Port call at Le Havre France was a plus as it allowed for excursions to Normandy Beaches or Giverny to see Monet's Garden.
Crew was superb. Excellent Cabin Steward, Bar and Restaurant Staff. Service was always friendly and timely.
Bars were enjoyable spaces and nice places to hang out. Especially liked the Good Spirits bar at atrium ...
Our ninth cruise with Princess and Regal met most of our expectations, some exceeded but one very disappointing concerns.
We booked a balcony cabin and chose Caribe, stateroom was upto the normal standard and more than met our needs. Downside of cabin, some stains on carpet, still has plastic shower curtains and no usb chargers in the side lamps. Some rust evident on balcony, but no problem ...
We chose this cruise for the itinerary and to travel with Princess again after 7 years trying other lines. Our suite experience certainly made this trip excellent because we were treated royally. Kudos to staff in Sabatinis, select area of main dining room and room steward. Food was very good and we had no complaints. Buffet was often busy but perfect for a quick lunch or cup of tea. Coffee was ...
From the moment we stepped onto the ship, we received excellent service by every crew member we encountered. Yes, the ship is a little older and a little smaller than others, but that did not deter from our experience. We had a full suite which was clean and spacious. We thoroughly enjoyed the Club Class Dining which came with that. The food was mostly delicious - a few misses now and then - ...
We chose this cruise for the itinerary and to travel with good friends. While the overall ship is fine, the "upgraded" balcony cabins are woefully inadequate. The bathroom is very small and the shower is cramped (even for a 5'4" 140lb female!) While the cabin is obviously for 2 people, it has only 1 chair so someone has to sit on the bed. The one positive was our cabin steward who was ...
Been a Princess Cruise customer for decades but this was the first cruise since Covid. We had lowered our expectations accordingly but apparently not low enough. Our biggest gripes were food and Internet. Princess food was never spectacular but it's downright mediocre now. Heard lots of other people complaining too echoing sentiments to never sail Princess again. At best banquet-quality and ...
We had a wonderful time going to Norway. In the beginning we were a bit disappointed because Spitzbergen had been cancelled - this was a bucket list item for a lot of people on this cruise. The scenery and the two added ports made up for some of it.
Would recommend going to Norway to anyone that asks, it's a beautiful place.
The ship itself was a little odd - we sailed on her before she was ...
While the destinations on this cruise were good, this was overall the worst cruise I have ever been on. It got to a point where at times it was uncomfortable and stressful. This continues to weeks after disembarking as they are still currently holding my money hostage. I spent around 250 USD on my stateroom account, which they have charged from my bank. On top of the money they have charged, they ...
