Where to begin this review of the Celebrity Reflection.....I will begin with all the positives and move then to the Negatives and my conclusions. So that you know where we come from, we cruise about 6-8 weeks per year and our cruises are now mostly on Celebrity, Princess, Silversea and Seabourn. We have sailed most of the lines (Oceania next). We were onboard from April 13 till May 6, total of 24 days. If I had to guess, I would think we have 800-900 nights of cruising under our belts and are in our mid 40's so that's our demographic. We enjoy cruising.

What a beautiful ship the Celebrity Reflection is. The art collection onboard is gorgeous and the dEcor throughout the ship is beautiful and similar to the other Solstice class ships. The flow of passengers is good and the public spaces afford lots of spaces to sit and relax. For the first cruise which was a Caribbean, ALL the deckchairs were full on sea days, sometimes 40 people in the little pool. For the second cruise which was the transatlantic, the average age went up 15 years and the deck was ½ full and pool empty most days.

We were in a Sky Suite on Deck 12 and we found the room very lovely and our Butler was helpful and able to Sew on buttons on a moment's notice and help us pack up at the end. Beds were comfy, sheets were of high standard and the Bulgari toiletries were lovely and a nice touch. Some people claimed to hear noise from the buffet above, we did not. I think cabin placement is key to this. Our cabin was further forward. On this ships design they moved The Penthouse, Royal and Celebrity suites down one deck to avoid being directly under the "noisy" pool deck as they had many complaints from the other ships. Glad to see they listen.
