P&O Britannia Cruise Reviews

In general the ship, staff and cruise destinations were good. Cabin was a standard with balcony which was ideal. Food and restaurants were of a very high standard. The Horizon buffet on deck 16 could be a bit of a free for all when busy. It felt like some other people could do with some manners, however apart from that no real complaints. Mind you there could be more water fountains to ...

Birthday cruise. Boarded coach from Manchester Airport to Southampton. Best to be said for coach station was disorganised chaos. Eventually board coach for a pleasant journey to Southampton. Embarkation was easy and efficient. Found cabin which was a nice sized balcony cabin. Was quite clean (seals around shower where dirty and mouldy but cabin steward cleaned these once pointed ...

This was our first time cruising and it was amazing. Horizon buffet was excellent with lots of choice and we had a meal at the Glass House for our wedding anniversary and the food was beautiful. The Britannia is a beautiful ship and even though it holds over 3,000 guests it never felt overcrowded. The only queue that I saw was for the burgers and hotdogs at the Lido grill. And they were ...

Just returned from the 14 day canary island cruise on Britannia. I am sorry to say it was the worst cruise I have ever been on culminating in four days of food poisoning. The ship is dirty and run down, there are stains on the carpets almost everywhere you look and the food in the Peninsula restaurant was bland, tasteless and repetitive. Our cabin was small and in common with the rest of the ship, ...

Thank you to P& O Britannia. We have wanted to visit the Canary islands and Madeira for a while. This cruise fulfilled our expectations. We have sailed to the Caribbean before on Britannia a few years ago and wondered if the standards had slipped, due to some of the negative reviews. You need not fear, our experience was delightful. I am amazed at how some people can moan so much when we were on ...

The greatest disappointment was the food which was universally poor and sometimes inedible. Even the specialist (££) restaurants did not have the highest standards. We had splashed out on a suite and expected a bit of pampering but other than priority boarding and a couple of cabin gifts we got nothing (£20 for drinks with the Officers? £20pp per day to use the private Retreat deck? £30pp for ...

We did the back to back to the Baltic followed by the trip to Norway. Overall we sailed 3 weeks and had a great time! We are Dutch and prefer PO above AIDA, MSC and Holland America Line. On boarding: Went very very fast, in 20 minutes we were already on board. As we arrived 4 hours later after the Norwegian cruise, a lot of people including us, all wanted to leave the same time with their ...

Went on Britannia for 14 nights from Southampton. Embarkation was very well organised and smooth,we had a balcony cabin with walk in shower.the food and service was excellent in the MDR but a bit chaotic in the self service buffet. The entertainment was good and so was the select restaurants.we did have a bit of a scare when we were hit by a mini hurricane and the ship broke loose from its ...

The Britannia is a really nice ship with nice things on board. We really enjoyed it on this cruise but there were a few things that could have been made better. The Buffet on this ship has two main buffet stations that are quite big but usually only one of them is used. the only problem with the buffet is the layout of the food. Ice cream next to pasta? Sausages next to salad?!?!?!?!?!? Because of ...

However, boarding was smooth and our luggage was waiting for as at our cabin, deck 10 midships, a grade HA balcony cabin. We sailed on time and at speed to outrun ...
