The door to door service and cruise itself was fine. The chosen ports were nice destinations. Also, the staff onboard is friendly and engaging. The food in the restaurants is ok, drinks at the bar are good, wine selection OK. entertainment is also fine. We didn’t see our butler very often. Last minute changes on excursions was not very well organised and deviating information was given to ...

This cruise was a big "miss". The food was poor quality and no variation from day to day and from restaurant to restaurant. For instance, we did not find the buffet in La Terrazza very interesting for lunch so instead we went to the Atlantide only to realize that the menu was the exact same as the buffet. We commented on this to the waiter, but it was never addressed by the head waiter. We saw ...

This review of how bad Silversea and Silver Spirit are could go on for 100’s of pages, so here are bullet points as to why you should avoid this Royal Caribbean in disguise cruise line and like me mourn the days of great food, service, and a feeling of being wanted, valued and safe. 1. Boarding was a nightmare; they lost my booking and it turned out the had cancelled it as the ‘FCC’ dept had ...

Last September, my husband and I sailed for the first time on the Silversea Whisper. In the past we had sailed with other companies and we decided to try this one due to the good opinions that had come to us by different ways. Unfortunately we have to say that the "exceptional experience" Silversea longs to offer is not what we had. When you travel on a luxury cruise you expect “luxury” and of ...

We went on a 7 day trip from Athens to Venice. This was a great itinerary with many wonderful stops. It was the main reason we selected this cruise. We thought the excursions were very good. We only booked the half day or shorter ones but we did do one everyday . We booked our own in Venice because Silversea wait listed us on the one we wanted. We thought that was unusual since we booked ...

The Silversea doesn't compare in service, staff or attitude to the Seabourn

Silversea Cruise Critique: Athens to Venice September 21 to September 28, 2027 The Silversea doesn't compare in its service, in the quality of its staff nor in its overall attitude to the Seabourn. Here are a few examples: Food: The cuisine is too nouvelle: ‘too cutesy by half’. The portions are small; odd combinations that don't work together; poorly prepared, and frequently ...

Not pleased with the Silver Muse or Silversea cruise line!

We selected this ship because of the itinerary and the fact the ship was new. It is underwhelming ship, the decorating was prefabricated a la Mobil home like. The public restrooms were so cheap looking, I hesitated to use them. The decor on the stairwells were ridiculous looking, so skimpy and unimaginative. There was not a nice place to take a photograph. The room was alright, not great. The ...

Recommendation from friend, Nice itinerary. Did not feel like we where in a top cruise. I prefer by far the treatment received at other luxury cruises (Seabourne is great). Ship was beautiful, food great (though sometimes extremely slow, once we had to wait 1 hour between our soup and main dish at Indochine, The waiter was very ashamed of the situation but that is not an excuse.) There seemed ...

Our previous experiences with Silversea have all been wonderful, we were really interested in the ports of call. We thought a new ship would be a good experience. However, the Muse is a step down on Silversea experiences. Service, specifically in the restaurants was middling to poor, and you had to make reservations, making the experience much less relaxed. We missed the formal nights. Not ...
