We recently sailed the Celebrity Silhouette from January 6 - 13, 2013. This review will be sort of mixed, I'll address the hotel and restaurant we ate at in Ft Lauderdale as well.
We arrived Ft Lauderdale the evening before sailing. Our group consisted of three couples in all. Two couples from Arkansas and one couple from Ohio.
We stayed at the Hampton Inn, North Cruise Port, Ft Lauderdale. The staff at the Hampton were fantastic, Diane, Sarah, and Alejandra were absolutely wonderful. The shuttle staff was equally as great. The Hampton provided free shuttle service from the airport to the hotel and then from the hotel to the port. Yes I know that service seems to be expected. They went the extra mile. That evening when deciding where to eat we were told the shuttle would take us to the restaurant and pick us back up between runs to the airport, no charge! Service with smile and very prompt.
Very spacious cabin. Loved the addition of a night light on the bathroom switch and the night light inside the bathroom. Veranda was great.
