Additional details
First, let me explain that we are a retired couple living in south Florida and that this was our 71st cruise.
Last year our first Transatlantic was the Celebrity Equinox eastbound to Rome in April 2010 and we loved it so much that we decided to try in again, this time on the Celebrity Solstice to Barcelona. We couldn't have had a better time on each cruise!
We found the service, food, entertainment, ports and Beyond the Podium speakers on the Sostice to be excellent. We have sailed on each of the 3 ships (Solstice, Equinox and Eclipse) in this class and find the ships to be elegant. The design is simple, the look is upscale and yet is extremely functional and well thought out. We particularly like that the casinos on this class are always smoke free.
Cabin Review
Deluxe Veranda 2D
Cabin 7215 - Hump cabin with somewhat enlarged balcony and not noisy at all. Could see lifeboats below, but they didn't obstruct view. Storage space can be tight on a Transatlantic because of limited drawer space, but if you can use the 2 cabinets above the bed everything works fine. Bed was very comfortable and bathroom was fine.
