Roundtrip 14 Night Transatlantic 21/8/22 - 4/9/22
"Gold Lion - We felt the food here was very good and although busy as expected, if arriving around 10 mins prior to the start of lunch, you could usually get a seat and the staff gave you a menu straight away.We enjoy all manner of holidays including but not limited to villa holidays, city breaks and cruises (with the very occasional camping trip thrown in) We tend to go with the flow, we don't feel we are demanding or high maintenance and although we expect good standards of hygiene, service and food (unless we are self catering then the food is down to me!..."Read More

HER MAJESTY IS IN DECLINE

Review for a Europe - British Isles & Western Cruise on Queen Mary 2 (QM2)

First of all I would like to say that we are both Diamond Cunard World Club members. We were passengers in Princess Grill on the short segment from Southampton to Hamburg October 20-22, 2023. This was the absolute worst experience I have ever had on a Cunard ship. This was our 12th sailing on QM2 and 34th cruise with Cunard. QM2 was scheduled to enter dry dock the morning we arrived in Hamburg. I ...

The old lady was rusty and needed a revival

Review for a Canada & New England Cruise on Queen Mary 2 (QM2)

I liked the idea of going on a Cunard ship and I wanted to stay in the US instead of flights over and back to Europe. One of my travel companions had been on a Cunard and raved about it. I wanted the luxury, exceptional good service, a real ship and the timing and price were acceptable. From the moment I got to my cabin, I was disappointed in the the rust along the edge inside the porthole/ ...

Lost lugggae and no help from Cunard

We LOVED our trip in the Queens Grill arbors the Queen Mary 2. What a magnificent ship. Our penthouse suite was beautifully appointed with every luxury we could want, including a bathtub long enough for my 6’2” frame to stretch out in. Meals were wonderful, especially the Concierge who went out of his way to provide us with special meals and suggestions. Unfortunately all of these good ...

My husband and i have been cruising for over 30 years and our experience with cunard was the absolute worst. we would never sail with them again nor would we recommend them to anyone. Our issues with the line began well before the cruise departed. their web site is difficult to navigate and provides only the minimal amount of information. our cruise fare included a beverage package and a ...

Below is a brief review of our sailing on Queen Mary 2, September 20-29, 2023, 9 nights, from Hamburg to Southampton and on to New York. This was part of a 5 week trip that began in Milan, Italy at the end of August, and included a 7 night sailing on the Azamara Onward from Rome to Venice. We were in an Interior cabin with a window overlooking the multi-story lobby. We had noticed these ...

A Superb experience

Review for a Baltic Sea Cruise on Queen Mary 2 (QM2)

Vik3062
6-10 Cruises • Age 50s

Booked a 4 night cruise to Hamburg and back from Southampton with the thought if we enjoyed the experience we would then consider a transatlantic next year. Firstly the ship is absolutely stunning, the art deco design combined with modern touches was more than I had hoped for. The lounges were all spacious, never had a problem finding a seat and the waiting staff in all areas were ...

QM2 Mixed review: Some deferred maintenance, poor food, but otherwise a delight

Having recently completed a seven-day transatlantic voyage aboard the Queen Mary 2, our first Cunard experience post-pandemic pause and just after a couple of recent cruises on Holland America Line and Celebrity X, and we felt it useful to share a quick review. Our oceanic résumé is not devoid of experience with Cunard; we first sailed on the QE2 back in the early 1970s in tourist class and have ...

Underwhelmed

Review for a Baltic Sea Cruise on Queen Mary 2 (QM2)

10+ Cruises • Age 70s

We booked this cruise to sample the “Cunard” experience. My wife and I have cruised with various other Companies over this last 11/12 years so I wouldn’t consider myself a novice. We boarded at Southampton having flown into Heathrow earlier in the morning. On arrival at the cruise terminal our taxi driver commented immediately that “ the old girl” meaning the QM2 was looking a bit tired. My ...

Wordy, but she is a big deal.

10+ Cruises • Age 60s

By way of background, we are mid-60s with 35 cruises in 10.5 years. Celebrity is our benchmark. We had seen so many Vlogs about a Transatlantic voyage on the QM2 that, when a significant saving opportunity came up, we jumped on it. We booked an entry level Queen’s Grill Suite (Q5) and started to budget for it. The itinerary was NYC round trip with Norway and France added. Online check in ...

Attentive waitstaff and room steward - disappointing Princess Grill room

My husband and I wanted to get away and relax after a very busy and medically challenging year. He had never been on Cunard before but I had and highly recommended it. We wanted to leave from NYC, unpack once, enjoy the crossing, the fjords of Norway, our one day in France and the return trip to NYC. To make this trip even more special, we selected a room on the Princess Grill level, a room we ...
