Cabin: Balcony

This is a beautiful ship. The public rooms and cabins are lovely. They are bigger but no better than the Holland America ship we sailed on this year. The catering isn't as good as Holland America. The buffet wasn't nearly as good and the service and food in the main dining room on the Oosterdam was at least as good and mostly better than on the QM2.

So we expected more than HAL because Cunard advertises itself as such, but while there was absolutely nothing wrong with the QM2 - it was beautiful and the food was good, cabin fine, etc etc, it was no better than HAL.

I thought 8 nights was one night too many though.

Cabin Review

Cabin BA

Cabin was lovely and a good size. Unobstructed view was great. I always love a bath and there wasn't one on this ship. This cabin was in a great location for everything and was quiet. The laundry which we used was on the other hallway and not far which was good.
