Celebrity Eclipse Review

Additional details
We embarked on the 18th June in Southampton - very smooth process, everyone was helpful and we were parked and on the ship in less than half an hour. Basically a walk on.
Our room was not ready till 1pm, so we headed for the Oceanview Cafe for lunch. Crowded but not overly so. We found a table easily and had a nice lunch.
Our stateroom was on the 7th deck, in mid ship, starboard. It was very spacious, and we had enough room to unpack all our 6 suitcases. Managed to find room for everything. Suitcases fitted well inside one another under the bed. Some people complained that there was a lack of drawers, but we were ok with the storage provided. There are large storage cupboards above the bed (have to stand on the bed to get to your stuff, but that's ok). There was kettle and things to make tea and coffee with. I have heard that not all sailings have that facility but only those that sail from Southampton due to the large proportion of UK cruisers.

The balcony was very private - noone can look from the top, bottom or side.
The bathroom was amazingly large - biggest shower cubicle we've had in any cabin. Shower was very powerful, and there is a leg shaving rest for ladies!The toiletries supplied were of very superior quality so that I didn't feel a need to use my own as I have done on previous cruises.
