We met QM2 after a whistle stop overnight stay in NYC, where we made the most of every last drop of our time in this fab city! Consequently we boarded (well raced on actually!) at 3.45pm and didn't see another passenger during the whole checkin procedure, so arrival to actual board took all of five minutes - bliss!

Our starboard side state room was an 'in-hull' balcony type on the 4th deck and it was just lovely. Spacious, bright, spotless & sweet smelling. Our Cabin Stewardess, Hershey was a complete darling, in when we were out, never an unwanted intrusion but always instantly on-tap when occasionally needed.

We used and enjoyed our balcony, morning noon & night, not at all windy considering our 27 knots and so frequently propped the balcony door open to enjoy hearing the waves and smelling the sea while we got ready for the day or dinner! 

Cabin Review

Balcony, sheltered

Cabin BC

Perfect location - near a stairwell B on Starboard side, so sunny for Eastbound TA crossing. In-hull balcony which we used frequently. Good climate control, excellent layout, high quality units and cheery light cabin finish. No noise whatsoever from above or below.
