Europe - Western Mediterranean Celebrity Silhouette Europe - Western Mediterranean Cruise Reviews

This is only my opinion from being on this cruise compared to other cruise lines I have been on Positives - ship was easy to board very efficient no problems occurred . Staff as always there on hand so helpful and the long shifts they do they always have a smile and good morning/afternoon. Spotless ship can’t fault the cleanliness and the space we had in a balcony suite Negatives ( ...

Went everywhere I wanted to go . Especially the port that allowed us to visit Pompeii and Rome. Enjoyed the sea days in particular as we love to see the wildlife visible from the boat. Was disappointed that the Sky Lounge was closed on some occasions. Enjoyed the captains club get togethers. Was hoping for different shows but only had the same ones that we had previously seen in the last 2 ...

We chose this cruise as friends had been on it Before and said how good it was. Having done many previous cruises with Royal Caribbean, Princess, P&O, Carnval and the first ever withThomson (Tui-now Marella), I was expecting exciting things: believing that Celebrity were the 5* cruise line (out of the Carnival owned ships). Currently onboard and whilst aspects of the cruise are good, there are ...

We sailed on Solstice in the first season followed by Eclipse shortly afterwards. During the next 10 years we sailed on several other cruise lines but returned to Celebrity choosing it not for the line but for the ports of call. Oh dear, what a surprise. The business model has changed with the line seeming to recoup its losses at the expenses of the passengers. Gone are the usual shopping ...

Chose this cruise as our 1st return to cruising since the start of the Covid pandemic and Celebrity had always rated highly with us previously. Unfortunately on this occasion they let themselves down even before we sailed. It was almost impossible to get in touch with anyone at Celebrity when we had queries. The hours spent waiting for the phone to be answered were unbelievable. Information ...

I chose Celebrity as I had heard so many good things about it so I was really looking forward to it after having had many fabulous cruises in the past with different lines. I was shocked on arrival to find a long wait to embark. It was about an hour and a half shuffling along slowly with the most enormous line of people. A member of staff I heard gleefully telling everyone they "didn't need ...

This seemed a nice short cruise to reassess cruising after covid we booked this when things to look a little better in October 21. We watched reports on cruise critic about customers experiences while coming over tha Atantic. Report about COVID were worrying and we were very tempted to cancel and change to another date but due to our other holiday and travel plans were unable to find a ...

We chose this cruise as it was a nice introductory length after lockdown and because we have sailed with Celebrity several times before, we would not be too far from home and the itinerary was good. However in our opinion some things had deteriorated on Celebrity, namely the quality of food in the Grand Cuvee restaurant which was not consistent, and also the speciality restaurant Tuscan Grille ...

We have cruised happily and quietly on RC Independence, at least 12 times, we liked the layout and the shopping mall, where one could sit and relax. But we thought time for a change. We knew there had been Covid on the transatlantic Silhouette trip, coming over to Southampton. Outside the terminal, we were told to get to the back of the queue (around 20 people), we had always walked straight to ...

We chose this cruise as we are Elite members and it fitted with my time off. Everything pre cruise was fine until 14 days before hand our room became magically unavailable! 2 days later we were allocated another room a deck higher which was ok. Lots of sketchy e mails sent by Celebrity regarding ports of calls and changing itinerys and health regulations which was confusing and actually not ...
