This cruise was for our 25th anniversary so we splurged a little more than we normally would have. We booked almost a year early to make sure we got the room we wanted (B416 mini-suite on the port forward facing bump-out). That may have led to the only "negative" we had on this cruise. When we booked there was no such thing as "Club Class" so when Club Class was announced I pretty much ignored it and what it might add. It turns out our booking was Club Class but that was never really conveyed to us. That led to some confusion at times. There was champagne in our room that we didn't expect and the first night we skipped right past the club class dining room line since we didn't think we were and got into the anytime dining line instead. The next evening the dining room hostess pointed out that our cards said "Club Class" and got us straightened out...though our waiter seemed upset we weren't there the previous evening. Not bad problems to have and really was the worst thing that happened the entire trip :D
Hotel:
We arrived in Anchorage 2 days early so we could sight see a bit. Princess put us up in the Captain Cook. Hotels are just places to sleep for us. We don't make much use of amenities and don't care much for the door holding and button pushing that swankier hotels do. That said, our room was very nice and the staff was courteous. We were quite happy with our stay.
We specifically chose B416 because it was a forward facing mini-suite. We really wanted the bump out view so we could see ahead and to the side easily. This worked out better than expected for Alaska. My wife chills easily :( I don't. I spent a large portion of the trip sitting on the balcony watching for wildlife. Because we had the bump-out view, my wife was able to sit just inside the balcony door where it was warm and still had a nice wide view. She'd often see seals before I did! The bed was comfortable except for the hump where the two beds join but that was easy enough to avoid. The 2 TVs are unnecessary...especially for us in Alaska! We turned one onto the bridge camera channel so we could catch the Captain's wildlife announcements :)
