Hi I have done 10 cruises with other cruise lines but mainly MSC. I had to do this cruise to use up a deposit for a previous cruises cancelled due to COVID. So Celebrity is 5 star well I did not get that feeling at all and the shows by the entertainment crew were not really up to standard. I must add the acrobats and rope work we're good. Food was like any other cruise but the Buffet was ...
This was my 1st time with celebrity. Was expecting my experience to be a cut above the rest. If did not live up to expectations in virtually all departments. I'll start with a positive:- our balcony cabin was a good size, clean and comfortable. Only complaint was from my wife that when underway there was mechanical noise which disturbed her sleep, personally it did not bother me.

Birthday treat for my grandsons aged 10 & 3
The corridor’s on the ship are wide and spacious, not like other cruise ship where they are narrow difficult for pushchairs/wheelchairs
Amazing ship with plenty to do for the older children but be prepared to queue
Plenty of swimming pools life guards are amazing
Food was good plenty of choice, beware Johnny R u have to pay
We only used ...
We chose this cruise because friends who live in the USA were boarding in New York and it was an ideal opportunity to meet up with them. The QM 2 is looking really tired but one can excuse that to some extent. We made a late booking so couldn’t get the cabin of our choice but really nothing to complain about our sheltered balcony cabin, plenty of storage and a comfy bed, our housekeeper, Hugo was ...
MSC DID WELL: the nightly entertainment was excellent. Jennifer Tierney had such a powerful voice. The ship singers and dancers were superb and well choreographed. The 3 tenors performance was exceptional. The room stewards and main dining room staff worked very hard to ensure we were well looked after. The pizza in the buffet was incredible...dare I say...addictive. I have lots of new weight I ...
My wife and I have been on cruises with all the major lines. This cruise was magical. First --hats off to Cunard for even adding this itinerary--chasing the Northern Lights in Norway was a gamble. It was spectacular --and we had two ports cancelled as a result of storms. This ship is not a "rust bucket"--it is a beautiful and understated ship with great common areas; great staff; the best ...
Just disembarked following a 7 night northern Europe cruise with my family,
So lets get the first point out the way which is value of the cruise. This was £600 each including 2 x balcony cabins, easy plus drinks package and wifi. This really is exceptional value and so I did expect a few things not to be up to scratch at this price point, but thankfully there were very few compromises.

Cruise and the service provided I would rate just about good enough, though there is absolutely no margin.
Brittania Club worth the extra money. Great setting, relaxed and not rushed. Plenty of choice.
Entertainment was adequate. Repeated mediocre singer and decayed comedian again budget affected. Singing group were very good. Plenty of room in well-appointed auditorium.
Ample room on ...
Despite paying the Cunard Fare and having second sitting dining confirmed, we were forced into open dining. Maitre’d was unable to assist and seemed very stressed. Overheard many comments of a similar nature.
There are not enough staff on board to provide proper service. The staff who are on board are run off their feet and look miserable.
Waits of 30 minutes in the Commodore Club. Queues ...
Chose this cruise because it was going to Hamburg a destination we had planned to visit before Covid stopped the world!
It was really quite a good experience, the ship, although a bit glitzy for our taste was clean and well run. Dining was well organised, and although I wouldn't describe it as 5 star, was well presented, efficiently served by excellent staff and certainly adequate.
