Having read both bad & good reviews regarding Thomson Majesty we decided to have an open mind & draw our own conclusions.

On arrival at the ship it appeared relatively well maintained with regards to its age, externally inevitable corrosion covered in white paint, internally showing signs of use, but was clean. Crew members were on hand to welcome you & show you to your cabin, which made you feel welcome. The emergency procedures & life jacket instruction was carried out prior to leaving port which is mandatory.

Our cabin was on deck 3 inside with twin beds, air conditioning and the shower room and would be lying if we said had plenty of space for two people. There is limited on wardrobe and storage space for a week let alone two. The toilet/shower was small and adequate, no dancing with the shower curtain was required. The cabins were cleaned twice a day plus bed turn down in the evening by two house keepers who do an excellent job keeping the cabin clean & replacing used towels, it was also good to return to your cabin following a night out to find a towel sculpture on your bed and a sweet on your pillow.
