We chose this trip as we liked the itinerary but we had a port cancelled prior to the cruise (no explanation why) and had 2 days in Hong Kong instead which we thought would have been better but no.
We had 1 night in a hotel in Singapore before boarding which was very nice. We arrived at the port fairly early and were soon on board no waiting around and decided to make use of our drinks package ...
We did a back to back, the first is the 14 night Vietnam and after the 15 night India.
The first cruise was not so good and definitely not the Celebrity standard. It was not well maintained, very dirty when we got onboard the first day. It did improve over the course of the cruise. The furniture for the sunset deck was sticky and just felt dirty all the time.
The rest was adequate though, ...
IST cruise and a big disappointment.Chose itinerary and company based on friends and reputation of Celebrity.All my life have been told that the dining/food is an amazing experience.Well it's NOT on the Constellation.
Main restaurant San Marco was extremely poor for food quality and standards of service.eg first meal asked for a table for two....only to be sat in a row with my wife further away ...
Compared to other cruises this ship seems very tired,there were no entertainment staff pushing shows and events and you were left to actively seek out entertainment and shows.I found some of the staff very rude and condescending especially guest services ,the drinks were very hit and miss one good cocktail out of three,they ran out of certain beers very quickly and the best they could do was offer ...
This was our 6th time with Celebrity having previously sailed on their Solstice class ships. We knew the Constellation was older but expected the same high standards. The ship has a certain charm of an age gone by and the public areas are plentiful and not crowded. However, compared to Solstice class there's a lot needs to be done in terms of updating if Celebrity continue to sail this ship, she's ...
We chose this cruise for the itinerary and also we had not sailed before on Celebrity line. Many friends ensured us it was comparable with if not better than Princess line, which we love.
So we eagerly awaited embarkation in Singapore. This went extremely well, no long queues.
The balcony cabin was very nice and bright with plenty of storage and had a good bathroom. So far, so good. However ...
Chose this based on itenary.
Restaurant served the same food day in day out...buffet. No variety, over cooked, no taste. Sad.
Service was below par ...in buffet area. Tables not cleaned and plates not picked up.
Dirty dishes.... serving ladles on food...total cross contamination. Nothing done to rectify even after it was pointed out to staff.
The dining room service was much ...
We wanted to visit both Vietnam and Cambodia so decided to book this cruise itinerary and tag a 3 day trip to Siem Reap (for Angkor) beforehand. We flew in and out of Singapore which is always an excellent experience. After our excellent trip to Cambodia, we then stayed a night in Singapore and had great fun exploring again, having last visited 6 years ago. On the day of embarkation, we took a ...
We chose this cruise for the itinerary. We were pleased with all of the ports through SE Asia. Our room was great - a bit more spacious than the ones we have had on other ships. The food was just fair. We are not “foodies” at all - we felt the food in the main dining room and up in the Cafe (similar to the Lido) was a bit salty. Utensils, cups and plates were often dirty. Mornings and lunch ...
The Celebrity Constellation cruise through Asia on January 29, 2018 (stateroom 9107?) was very disappointing. There were sales pitches from day one. People were expected to buy a drink package, a spa treatment, a la carte meals, your socks washed for $3, Internet for $299, overpriced tours 3 hours away. Since I paid double fare, you would think I'd be given extra perks. I was alone. Anytime a ...
