Generally OK - but needs a lot of tweaking to get it right!

Sail Date: Oct 2015

My husband and I have just returned from our two week cruise in the Med on Britannia. This was our first time sailing with Britannia and our first time embarking from Southampton.

We found it difficult to find the correct dock as the postcode given in the information pack directed us to another area of the port and we had to ask several times for the correct directions.

The embarkation process ran very smoothly for us as we were given priority boarding. The embarkation staff were very efficient and polite.

Cabin Review

Cabin Balcony

Our Balcony Cabin was the smallest we've ever had and the en suite was the tiniest we've ever had on a cruise ship.

It was in good decorative order. Cabin staff maintained it to a good standard.

It would be useful to have a pull out magnifying mirror in the en suite for those with impaired vision.

Our bed configuration was "Queen-size bed" - basically twin beds pushed together. the 'join in the middle' was a little uncomfortable. Maybe a thicker mattress topper could have been placed over this to make it more comfortable.

There were no individual bed-side reading lights so the dimmer lights had to be kept on in order to read in bed at night which was a distraction to my husband at night.
