Sail Date: May 2013
Cabin: Concierge Class 1

We were recommended to use Celebrity by friends, who swear by them. Embarkation was efficient, although nobody has told the staff how to smile (if looks could kill). The ship itself is very nice inside, although the impression of massive size you get outside this ship is not conveyed inside, as it does not have the large central stair case and atrium of other ships. Ship is spotless though, and was throughout the cruise.

Room was very nice and cosy but small, and was at the end of a very long corridor that had no stairs at the end (again unusual).

Space around the ship is scattered and very difficult to find a quiet nook to read, as all space has something going on most of the time. Demos of cooking and dancing were held in the central stairway, making it noisy and cluttering the walk way. These things are usually held in one of the bars on other ships but this ship has no enclosed bars.

Cabin Review

Concierge Class 1

Cabin C1

Small room but comfortable bed. Balcony was standing room only, with two chairs,2 foot stall and small table you could not move.

Bathroom good, again small but well laid out and very clean. Wardrobe was very small and only just got all clothes in. Only two plugs for electrical stuff which nowadays is not enough (cameras, phones, ipads etc). Sofa very comfy, but only three feet from opposite wall with TV on. TV info very basic, not too much on destinations, and excerpts from talks on destinations not very well given. Navigation info very poor, with no indication of where we had been, or where we were going, or how far we had travelled etc.
