Having cruised with Cunard before we had high expectations of this cruise.

Our flight to Athens was uneventful,and embarkation was fairly smooth.We were most impressed with the handling of our luggage which was taken off our hands at Heathrow and the next we saw of it was in our cabins! This was a lot better than other flight cruises we had.The cabin was pleasant with ample storage space but the bathroom and shower particularly was very small compared to Celebrities Solstice class ships.The towels also felt small and hard by comparison.Small touches such as binoculars and an umbrella were missing.

The ship looks well appointed with abundance of polished wood in the style of an English stately home the Royal court theadre and the Queens Ballroom were bothexcellent and roomy and in par with ships of equal status,

Cabin Review

Balcony

Cabin BA

Our cabin was on deck eight like most cabins on the top accommodation deck has an overhang although was not as pronounced as on the Solctice ships.The cabin was very quite and the position was relatively midships,which somewhat reduces sway when the sea gets rough. The bed was comfortable but the sofa was rather small. The biggest criticism was the rather small shower enclosure with a curtain a bit below par with other modern ships we experienced.
