My husband, daughter and I cruised from Hong Kong to Shanghai on the ship and we all had a marvellous time. it is true that we ate all our evening meals either in Q-sine or the Olympic Speciality restaurants as we would that dining in the main restaurant with 1000 other passengers or guests as they are now called on cruises to be unpleasant- noisy, no atmosphere and perfunctory service etc.
the fun factory ie kids club was fantastic with well-trained staff who organised many educational and fun activities - my 10 year old daughter could not get enough on the place.
the entertainment on board was varied and each night the artist was of a very high standard. we travel a lot and this is our 6th cruise as a family but I have done many more so am in a position to know good from bad.
this was an exceptionally well located cabin. near the Apple I-lounge and central to all locations. a good size cabin but we did not have the balcony open at any time as the weather did not permit at this time of the yearthe room steward put the sofa bed away each morning and made it up every evening which gave us sufficient room in the cabin when we were there
