We chose Anthem because of the itinerary also we wanted to try a new ship . We have previously been on Brilliance , Explorer and Independence.
I had read loads of bad reviews and was worried about our holiday but what I did learn from the reviews that was true was to book as much as possible in advance . We booked the 3 shows , that were all fantastic especially We Will Rock You , I had seen it in the West End and hated it but loved it on the ship.
We also booked speciality restaurants including Wonderland which we loved . Chops Grill food was really good , pity it was not hot enough.
Cabin was inside with virtual balcony . Loads of cupboard space , very clean .
