We booked this repositioning cruise as our second trip on this ship. We paid a little extra for cabin 373, which we had on the last cruise, it is a four berth cabin used by two guest, as we were grateful for the extra space as well as wardrobe and draw space. The cabin had TV, kettle, safe(at extra charge) aircon. and a fridge. The shower was small but had a hair dryer, tissues and very usable soap, shower gel and shampoo. Towels were changed daily on request and sheet every couple of days.

The cabin and it's size were described acutely in the ships details. Guests must remember that this ship is elderly and small, only 40k tons, and cannot be compared with larger ships, 95k tons and above. The cabins will therefore be smaller and the ship will bounce more in a rough sea. Our cabin was clean and well serviced by the chambermen who couldn't do enough to help you.

We tried the waiter service,buffet and The Bistro (extra charge)restaurants . The food was varied and plentiful. You could eat from 6am until 2am if you wanted to. In the waiter service restaurants some portions were a little small but served as part of a 6 course meal. The Bistro was fabulous and well worth the £19.95 per person extra. Our only complaint was that meat tended to be cook "well done" when we like it less cooked and on occasions the food was not hot but was changed immediately this was pointed out. Read more
