Cunard Queen Victoria Luxury Cruises Reviews

We recently chose Cunard for a family trip to the Mediterranean because we had heard such wonderful things about their line--its elegance, tradition, and prestige. I have never been so incredibly disappointed in a company. For background: I am in my early thirties, American, was traveling with my extended family, and have cruised with everyone from Carnival to Crystal. This cruise was like ...

This was our second cruise, the first had been in 2014 on the Celebrity Equinox, which had been an excellent experience in every way. This year we thought that we would try the Cunard line and booked a cruise on the Queen Victoria which turned out to be a dreadful experience, all except for the embarkation process in Southport which was extremely well organised. The main problem for us was that ...

Our fourth Cunard cruise twice on the Queen Mary 2 and twice on Queen Victoria, on this trip although the ship had been refurbished,and new carpets etc, however, this is where the novelty ends As soon as you embark , one feels this is a money grabbing machine , new carpets are fine, but the TV is so small , you cant see any writings displayed on screen, the beds are very soft and spongy , the ...

Arrived at allotted time and told we were late! Cabin adequate. 30 minute queue for 2030 hr dining slot, Food 'dreadful'. Dishes being sent back by the dozen. Shown to our table at 0930 next morning. 40 minutes wait until a waiter approached our table with a menu. Food continued to be dreadful throughout the trip. Resorted to eating in the Lido buffet. At least the food was edible. An average ...

We have cruised with several different lines. In fact this was our 7th cruise, but the first with Cunard. And I'm sorry but it will be our last. You cannot fault the food and the waiting service. The ship was clean and tidy. But there was just nothing to do! If you did not play whist, bridge, advanced bridge or cribbage - if you did not ballroom dance - if you did not want to attend lectures on ...

CUNARD NEVER AGAIN---The worst cruise ever. I posted some concerns prior to my Cunard sailing this last Christmas - New Years Queen Victoria Cruise. I always contact the cruise company before hand about some health concerns we have. ALSO the company lowered their prices drastically and unlike THIS year's price promise they would do NOTHING for those of us who booked early... loyal cruisers. I ...

The Pros: The ship is very modern with some state of the art features which do not reflect in the way the cabins are fitted out. On the whole the staff are very hardworking and trying to please. You can see certainly the cabin stewards working almost around the clock. The embarkation process was smooth and efficient and our luggage arrived to our cabin very fast. The ...

I went on Queen Victoria, Cunard Cruise Lines. I booked it on line, on a last minute web site. Got a great deal, then upgraded to an obstructed ocean view.Paid $400.00 more for the up grade and all we looked at was a life boat for 12 days! Don't waste your money on that upgrade! This should read window with NO VIEW! Shame on Cunard for charging $400.00 more for a room that was no better then a ...

Much to our overall disappointment - my wife and I boarded the Queen Victoria for our British Isles Cruise.... having sailed on both the QE2 and the QM2 - we were amazed with the lack of Majesty of the Victoria compared to the other Curnard Queens. There is a lack of luxury one would expect for the price of the cruise, and when entering our "cabin" - we were very disappointed, as we have ...

4th January 2010. Queen Victoria, Southampton. We arrived at around 1330hrs at the cruise terminal, it was in chaos from the start, it took almost 3hrs before we embarked, there were no refreshments laid on apart from small canteen serving tea and stale sandwiches which was over priced. The first night on board was as expected allowing passengers to settle in and the first dinner in the Britannia ...
