Sail Date: Mar 2019
Cabin: Balcony

Having cruised on other cruise lines we thought why not go upmarket with the Cunard QE.

Our great expectations did not materialize, from embarkment at Sydney at 1.00pm an untrained lass was totally lost doing the paperwork constantly requiring supervisor assistance for 30 minutes with no seating for semi-disabled senior passenger doing the procedure. On way to ship entry no Cunard photographer or photo opportunity for souvenir. Balcony cabin was ready and comparable with other lines, however the cabin steward never introduced him/her self during entire cruise. Half bottle of sparkling wine in bucket of ice was appreciated and a thoughtful touch.

Unfortunately, sleeping at night was difficult as other passengers seem to enjoy slamming cabin doors plus our cabin door was directly opposite cabin steward's kitchen with much banging and clattering of metal seemingly oblivious of passengers comfort.

Cabin Review

Balcony

Rather similar to most other cruises in size and decor. Bathroom adequate.with good toiletries. Bedding very impressive and elegant. Good steward service, always clean, always fresh ice, No problems apart from outside corridor noise.
