1-10 of 14 Princess Crown Princess Cruise Reviews for Senior Cruises to Europe - British Isles & Western from Dublin
We chose this ship and itinerary because we wanted to go to the Normandy landing beaches. The cruise also included many ports we had not previously visited, so we were looking forward to it!
The cabin was the smallest we've ever had. One chair and one tiny table, so there was no possibility of dining in the room. The bed was great and man was the shower good and hot!!!
The ship was ...
Our group of 7 had a fantastic 2 weeks in Ireland and on the Crown Princess. From embarking to disembarking, we were always busy doing something. This cruise had 9 ports in 12 days with only 2 split days at sea. It's a cruise for active individuals. All the ports were wonderful in their own way. The lone exception was Southampton. The bus ride to London and the time able to be spent their wasnt ...
We chose this itinerary for the destinations. They were all good.
Unfortunately there were some disappointing areas that need improvement.
The shore excursions were well organized and mostly interesting but quite expensive.
The Horizon Court dining venue was always overcrowded caused in part by guests hogging tables to read etc. also they utilize plastic dishes and glasses. ...
We took the British Isles cruise on Crown Princess, August, 2019. We had a really good time and enjoyed ourselves.
Ship: Although not the fanciest ship around, the Crown Princess was very clean, had everything we needed and was easy to find our way around.
Embarkation: We boarded in Dublin and were given our medallions and were on board in under two minutes. Excellent.
Stateroom: We had ...
We have been on about a dozen cruises, yet this was our first with Princess. The cruise began well enough. We embarked in Dublin and were literally in our cabin five minutes after arriving at the port. Unfortunately, it was all downhill from there. The room was an unobstructed Oceanview in a quiet area of the ship. The shower consistently flooded, the faucet water rarely produced anything but ...
We chose Crown Princess because we wanted to do the British Isle itinerary. We came into Dublin one day early to explore Dublin in depth and to allow for jet lag and/or unanticipated travel snafus. Embarkation was fine as most people ~2,300 come on board in Southampton and only 300 +/- come on board in Dublin. Still, when we disembarked, the staff was slow to inform passengers of the status of the ...
This was a 13 day cruise of the UK. We planned it for a long time and worked with a travel agent. The ship is older but had recently had some renovations done to it. Our cabin was lovely and was always clean thanks to excellent stateroom staff. Although the TV often did not work. We were given a $50 credit for this.
We were told by other passengers that the food in the expensive specialty ...
We have experience on four different cruise lines. This cruise took us to the British Isles aboard the Crown Princess, It was our first and last with Princess Lines. With the exception of entertainment the most comfortable bed ever, and our cabin steward, everything was below average, We are not whiners and try to look for the best so I'll share a few examples to document our disappointment. Ship ...
We chose this cruise because of its itinerary. I realize we may be somewhat jaded because we mostly travel on smaller luxury cruise lines, so I will begin with the positives.
During our cruise the company upgraded their software in an attempt to improve their Internet, door locks and security system. Their service in most of their restaurants was very good and the food in their specialty ...
We have been on 10 cruises with Princess and this one will not have us looking at Princess in the future. There are just too many other options out there to spend our vacation dollars. Earlier this year we booked a Princess Australia/New Zealand cruise for 2020....that will be cancelled when we get home. I think we are now seeing the full negative affect of Carnival’s takeover of ...
