We went with my daughter and her boyfriend to celebrate her 30th birthday. We had 2 balcony cabins which were adequate in size, quiet and comfortable. Boarding was hassle free and we found our cabins without a problem.
Service by the staff was, as always, excellent but there was a palpable sense of stress as though the staff were having to work too hard. They seem to have to work 12 hours a day ...
We have been 9n loads of cruises and cruise lines but our first with Celebrity.
We booked aqua class and premium drinks package and paid near £3,000 each. However as soon as we were onboard constantly bombarded with having to spend more. Everything about this company is trying to make more money out of the passengers. We expected to have some sales pitches but you need to be careful as there ...
Firstly these are the things I liked about this cruise:
-the cabins were large including the bathroom. They might not have won any interior design competitions but they were comfortable.
-the ports visited were very good and we enjoyed all of the tours I arranged independently of the boat
-the food overall was of good quality in the Opus restaurant and for afternoon tea and for some ...
This was my wife and I’s fifth cruise and first with Celebrity. We were encouraged by friends and our travel agent to try Celebrity as they assured us it would be a step up from Princess who we had sailed with previously and that we wouldn’t be disappointed. When I found the Western Mediterranean cruise it was the perfect opportunity as the itinerary was fantastic and it afforded us the chance to ...
As soon as I landed in Italy the holiday was a nightmare. My luggage hadn't arrived with me, it was still in Amsterdam (Connection flight). Then didn't know if I was going to get on the bus to take me to the ship as they didnt have my name as I was a staff members guest so they had to contact the ship to confirm the staff member (my boyfriend) on the ship that I was there to see. Then had to wait ...
We chose A Celebrity cruise as everyone said they are very good.
But having spoken to people (guests and staff) on-board, it is clear that standards have slipped in recent years,
The most disappointing thing was the food ... if you want a steak, you have to pay a high price for it in one of the speciality dining rooms. The daily New York sirloin on the menu in the main dining room was a ...
Totally loyal to this cruise line. But not anymore. They seem intent on upsetting their loyal followers by making life difficult with cut backs. Chasing round bars for the drink you enjoy. Been given second best when you've paid for premium. We didn't book another cruise in board. As we feel it's time for a change to someone who will appreciate our loyalty.
Restaurant was a joke. We ...
This was my first cruise and the only ting I have to compare it to is an all inclusive resort and all the great things my friends have told me about cruising. Let me start by saying this was a 11 day Mediterranean trip to and from Rome. We spent 3 days in Rome prior to leaving. Our check in to the ship was smooth until they tried to sell us the Premier drink package which we had but they insisted ...
We chose Celebrity because we thought it was a step up from Princess which we have gone on several times. Not so.
The balconies have no lighting for evening sitting out. The menu did not have enough variety. We bough our own excursions because the ones offered by Celebrity were overpriced. We just felt that this whole cruise was an attempt to drag money from out pockets on board. ...
Chose this cruise for the itinerary. This was our 2nd Celebrity cruise in 9 months and it was very different from our first on the Silhouette, Scandanavia & Baltics last fall.
The Reflection was basically laid out the same as the Silhouette and we had a Sky Suite, 7309. The cabin was laid out the same as our previous cruise, love the size and having an aft corner cabin. We did notice many ...
