This cruise was our first...booked at the last minute as a "shake-down cruise" to familiarize ourselves with cruising prior to a 15-day cruise we had booked for Autumn. I chose Regent because of an ad in "Travel and Leisure" magazine, and I am so glad I did. We booked a Penthouse-level suite, and so had Business Class Air and a pre-trip hotel in Copenhagen as part of the package.

Regent offered Icelandia Airlines Business Class, but my research indicated we would be disappointed with them, so we upgraded (for $2500! Seemed like a lot, to me. Regent must get REALLY cheap "business class" tickets!) to Air Canada, which flew us non-stop to CPH. A Regent agent met us at CPH and seamlessly organized our transfer to the Marriott Hotel. Our room was lovely and very comfortable. We took a canal boat tour that first day, arranged through the hotel concierge, and enjoyed it very much. The next morning, Regent picked up our baggage to take to the ship, and provided us with a very nice coach tour of Copenhagen.

Once on the ship, Regent gallantly helped my husband, who does not walk strongly, up the long gangplank on one of their wheelchairs. We were soon in our comfortable handicapped-equipped suite, being greeted by our wonderful butler, Samir. He introduced us to various features of the suite and the ship, and looked after us SO efficiently for our entire trip. As much as anything, he sold us on Regent!

Cabin Review

This "Handicapped" suite was very comfortable and very well laid out. I especially liked the window over the computer desk and the adjacent well-lighted vanity desk. The alarm clock was a very nice touch, as were the reading lights over the bed. Negatives? Well, it's not very comfortable to sit on the sofa and look sideways at the TV while watching a movie, a second chair would have been nice. Also, I am 5'4" and could not reach the glasses on the top shelf over the bar. Yes, I know I could have called Samir, but it was late and i didn't want to disturb him for such a small thing.BTW, every day, probably on instructions, he took away perfectly good fruit and replaced it. Seemed like a waste!
