We chose this cruise because we wanted to try a different ship after having done several cruises with Cunard. We were pleasantly surprised overall with the ship.We booked aqua class and were pleased with the layout and space in the cabin , particularly the bathroom,the shower was very good with plenty of space and large shower head also five jets. The cabin was cleaned to a good standard but the ...
We are constant cruisers, usually choosing Celebrity, but i had never visited St Petersburg and as my Grandparents were Russian it was always on my mind to visit. This cruise started from Southampton, also a first for us..What a pleasure! No airport hassle. Pack what you like in whichever bag you want. No jet lag. Straight on the ship as we are Elite and directly to Cafe al Baccio for a ...
We have previously sailed with quite a few different cruise lines so thought we'd give Celebrity a try. Also wanted to visit the Baltic area.
After a shaky booking process - decided to re-book when prices dramatically fell from our quote - we got a reasonable price with free drinks which seemed good. However, unless you are a big drinker you can get a bit fed up with unlimited wine and ...
We chose this particular cruise primarily and specifically because it coincided with our 50th wedding anniversary. The embarkation process at Southampton was first class, so simple and easy. Bags collected from the car park and reappeared at our cabin door before we set sail.
The Aquaclass cabin (1584) on deck 11 was good and very comfortable .... but not great. Well used and a little tired ...
We were suite guests, having travelled on the Eclipse before in a different cabin. Not a cheap hobby but goodness me it was worth it. Effortless check-in. Plenty of space to relax in. Lovely cabin staff including the splendid Butler that is shared between various suites. Use of Michael's Club, a quiet venue with excellent helpful concierge and bar staff. And the Luminae restaurant, where we ...
First cruise with Celebrity and it won't be my last! Everything was excellent, from the cabin to the food. The entertainment was exceptional. The staff were very friendly and extremely helpful. Couldn't have asked for more. The ship never seemed to be crowded, even on sea days. The food served in the dining room was delicious and served HOT! Room service good. Cabin spacious and it was great to ...
The Itinerary was the main reason I choose this cruise-the 2 overnights in Russia sealed the deal . Russia was the highlight of the cruise . Fascinating , Amazing , Interesting and beyond expectations plus not at all what I thought Russia was about pre cruise . You must at some point see it for yourself . Celebrity is first class and the crew was also . The food was better than on any other ...
This was our first cruise with Celebrity and we were not disappointed in any way. Embarkation very quick with no hold ups.
The ship is very well laid out with lifts forward, aft and middle. Its is very clean and beautiful. The dance floor on level 3 is overlooked by all the floors and easy floor to dance on. The solarium area for adults only is brilliant, kept very very clean by the pool ...
We chose this for the ports of call. Very happy with the cruise and the ship. Embarkatiion and disembarkabtion was quick and simple.
All areas of the ship were spotlessly clean, bright and 'glamorous'. El Bacio coffee bar and the Martini Bar were special favourites. Due to weather not being great, we spent our days in the Solarium - very relaxing and the Aqua Cafe was handy for light ...
