My son and I went on the Royal Princess last Dec for 20 nights. Some people we liked a lot, some people we didn't. Some people didn't like us. The rest were two faced. I was very disappointed with the food. The breakfasts in Horizon court was the best meal of the day. The other meals in there were very repetitive. I understand for 20 days they can't always have different things each meal, but to have the same things 3/4 days on the run is a bit much.

I'm a smoker so most of the time I spent on Deck 17 when I was on the ship. Most days there was always someone moaning about us smoking. One day I took an ashtray to sunbeds and put it on the table, and then the waiter came and told me that I couldn't smoke there. I asked why?? they said they don't make the rules. Later a manager came up and I asked why we could smoke sat on a chair at the table, but not on a sunbed. He said its just in case we fall asleep with the cig in our hand. I told him if he knew the price of cigs, no-one would fall asleep smoking.

We had a problem with one of the waiters, so my son and I went to the reception to make a complaint. They said they would deal with it. To cut a long story short, they didn't do anything about it. So I went back down the next day and the first guy had not even written it down. So I went through it all again. Finally they did something about it. I spoke to other people on other cruise ships when we were in port, they all said there was a smoking section around the pool area. Princess should do something for the smokers that r left in the world. Read more
