Star Princess Review
Cruising the Baltic...What Cruise Line do I Choose????
Rating by category
Additional details
My husband & I just returned from a 10 day cruise on the Star Princess. I was lucky enough to travel the Baltic on the Celebrity Century in 2007. What cruise line would I recommend??? My vote goes to Celebrity.
Food: Celebrity wins here. The food on Princess reminded me of low end food service. The breakfast buffet in the Horizon was awful (same food served in the sitdown restaurant)in particular. The lunch buffet was mediocre, and while the presentation of dinner in the anytime dining Capri was nice, all the food tasted the same...bland, unimaginative, boring. As compared to the Star Princess, Celebrity was more flavorful and interesting. The breakfast in the sitdown area was more "highend" than the buffet on the Century. On both ships, the coffee was bitter and strong.
Tours: We like going on the tours offered by the ship...so stress free. Celebrity wins here. On the Century, the tours were a tad more organized. Paddles were provided for group recognition.
Cabin Review
A741 An interior cabin at the aft of the ship. There was only one room separating this cabin from the Terrace Pool on the Aloha Deck 12. The Terrace Pool is rarely crowded. A great location to the Horizon Buffet area (one floor up). Good size closet for hanging clothes. Efficient shelving. Good under bed space. Quiet location.
