Loud type of music spoiled the atmosphere for us. It seemed just noise. Most of the crew was pleasant but some were just there. Specialty restaurant service was better than the food. The $18 above the regular added price for dry aged prime in Toscana was very tough as opposed to the very tender prime rib in the regular restaurant. Our waiter in the Trellis restaurant was the best and so we ...
We took the cruise to fulfill a desire to transit the Panama Canal. Crew was very courteous and attentive to our needs. Our cabin was clean and efficient with a balcony to sit and view what was happening outside. We broke Aqua class and got some nice perks - special dining, access to Persian Garden Spa, and other nice things.
Main Dining Room (Terrace) was too crowded and noisy for our ...
We choose it because we had booked it some years ago and lost it due to missing the plane and my Husband was a engineer and the interest was the Canal . We had to save for it again due to the loss of the money before.
We found the flight from Newark to San Diego very uncomfortable due to the fact we had no entertainment and we had packed our Kindles in our suitcase we were also allocated two ...
The ship is older and actually just looks "tired". After having experienced S Class Celebrity ships, we don't like the buffet area very much. We have been told the BLU restaurant is changing the menu which is wonderful news. This trip was very expensive for the value received. Enrichment series of talks was very good. Service on the ship was outstanding. The food in the buffet area rarely ...
WE wanted a full transverse of the canal and had had excellent prior experiences on three Celebrity cruise ships. While the ship's personnel did everything they could to make us happy, the ship itself was, in the apt words of a fellow dinner guest, "a little bit tired". And overcrowded, or so it seemed at every breakfast and lunch, and while attempting to find deck chairs in the pool and other ...
The panama Canal was fabulous. This was certainly a bucket list trip. I wish we could have heard the speakers on the ship. The entertainment in the Celebrity Lounge was horrible. The last day I was getting a salad at the buffet the staff literally started pulling items from the line as I was dishing up my food. Could they not have waited until we were done getting our food. I had expired or ...
Four years after last cruising on Celebrity Infinity we returned for a 15 night Eastbound Panama Canal Cruise. Clearly the entertainments management has changed in that time as loud music is now played at all time in all public rooms and on all outer decks throughout the ship. This becomes very tiresome when the only place that is quiet is the cabin. That cabin, (2153), was comfortable and very ...
We will have long lasting memories of this cruise, the transit through the canal,the ports of call and the high standard of service from all the staff. What is memorable but for different reasons is the state of the ship. It was clean but tired, jaded and overdue a refit.
Our Aqua Class cabin (9045) had furniture and fittings well past their best, the air conditioning was so noisy at ...
Good price for an itinerary we always wanted to take. First the positives.
1. Room steward was outstanding. Room was always ready and he was very friendly.
2. High marks to the activities staff. Full of energy and very personable.
3. The entertainment in the theater was top rate. The singers and dancers were as good as we have seen on any cruise.
Now the downside.
1. The ...
Embarkation was fine. Our cabin was a forward balcony cabin and was fine. Room steward did excellent job. Room service very disappointing though compared to solstice class ships. We are elite and happy hour between 5-7 pm up in the Constellation was great with great service. Select dining on this ship was a bit of a disappointment though. We ate at different tables for 2 every night until ...
