Wanted something upscale, elegant and fun for all ages. The QM2 did not dissapoint. I am very picky and i cannot say enoigh great things about this ship.
Everything from the crew to the service to the room, the food was excellent.
The high tea and ballroom, the bands, the shows were top knotch!
Most amazing was the kids club, who knew! Lovely young ladies showing interest and kindness to ...
We were tired of taking planes to Europe. So we booked a passage om the QM2 to Hamburg from Brooklyn. We used Uber to get to Pier 3 in the Brooklyn Red Hook neighborhood and did our check-in to the Queen Mary 2, an ocean liner, not a cruise ship as the crew will quickly point out. Rather than repeat all the interesting technical details about the ship, I suggest a visit to ...
Demograph - Both my partner and I are in our mid 50's and consider ourselves fit and independent people - we enjoy life and socialising but are definitely not "in your face" people. We are happy and comfortable to mix with people of all ages but I have to say that our cruise from NY to Southampton felt like we were in a floating retirement home for a bigoted older generation that still believe ...
Accommodations are very nice. Rooms are well appointed with nice decor. Very comfortable beds and pillows. Our room steward Fernando was very good.
The Commodore Club was our favorite bar with lovely furnishings and a great views. Also very nice were the Carinthia Lounge and the Chart Room.
The three balls during our transatlantic were fantastic. The themes, the dancing and the music were ...
First, this review is my personal opinion. This is my first time on the QM2 and second cruise ever. My first cruise ever was an inside cabin on the Crown Princess cruise in the Caribbean. For background while I enjoy cruising I would not consider myself a diehard cruiser. Also, if something is really subpar I will say so. I do not think the QM2 is subpar in any way for a mass market cruise ...
We have cruised numerous times, but had not yet cruised with Cunard. We wanted to experience the Queen Mary 2, and a short, 5 night cruise over the 4th of July was a wonderful opportunity to do so.
The QM2 is a stunningly beautiful ship. The décor is very “art deco” and reminiscent of a more elegant age. The many common areas on the ship are large, well appointed, and, even at capacity, do not ...
We wanted to sail out of New York City and thought this cruise would be a good fit. The ship was beautiful, the room was nice, however the service was very disappointing. It started with the 1.5 hour wait in line to get onto the ship. Then there was a long line to get into dinner the first night while only one crew member had the list to help find passenger’s s find appropriate entrance to the ...
Hey honey--I got tickets to Springsteen on Broadway--can we sail on Queen Mary 2?
That's how this voyage began...
We sailed on the five day portion of this itinerary--from NY to Saint John, New Brunswick, to Boston for the 4th of July, and back to NY. We were "trying out" the Queen Mary 2 with the idea of a world cruise in 2021. Five days is nothing like 113 days, of course, but we still ...
I choose sailing on the QM2 (this was my 3rd voyage) because it is a civil and upscale voyage and if you want a peaceful journey with nice people, this is it. You are almost guaranteed no children on board because this is not a ship with children's attractions. I was on the July 1, 2018, cruise to Canada and Boston for the 4th of July Fireworks. We left out of Brooklyn, NY. The regular balcony ...
We choose the QM2 because we wanted to experience a Cunard cruise as well as the QM2 itself, being such a well-known ship, with so much history and sense of luxury. That it had from the start to the last day. While not avid cruisers, we would consider this ship for another adventure.
We started with the option of arrival the day before staying in NYC at the Knickerbocker Hotel on Times Square, ...
