We chose to cruise to celebrate my husband's birthday and since we have been to Europe many times this ship had an itinerary that was different for us. It wasn't our first choice to go on the Constellation because it was an older ship......but what a surprise!! The renovations that have been made to the ship are really lovely and we even booked another cruise on this ship for next year. The crew was outstanding and the service was amazing. We dined in Blu and each time we were greeted by our names both by the hostess' and waitstaff. We were made to feel Special each and every day. I was impressed with the level of service given to our meals, and by our cabin steward. We are not new to Celebrity, we are Elite Plus members, therefore we feel qualified to say that the service and ship were Outstanding!

I would also like to add that we rarely attend the shows onboard, if we do we usually sit on the end so we can leave if the performance is not to our liking, on this cruise we loved the entertainment and stayed through most of the shows.

If there were any cons, I would have to say it was disappointments with some of the shore excursions. The problem is since we were in France on a Sunday and Monday most shops were closed and we still had 2 to 2 1/2 hours of free time with no place to go but sit around. I would suggest that the tours either be shortened on those days or discarded altogether.
