We had looked forward to this cruise for 4 years due to Covid. B2B North east Asia/Southern Japan. First impressions of the ship weren’t great, she looks tired and the interiors are pretty dated (although cabin was lovely). Staff were all, without exception, very friendly and attentive. Entertainment in our opinion was second rate and repeated word for word on the second leg. We expected it ...
Having taken over 35 Celebrity Cruises, we love the brand. That's so true that we splurged for a Royal Suite. Don't make that mistake. The extra large balcony, which should be enticing, had rust throughout, major grout issues, furniture that had to be removed because it was unstable and much more. The cabin is an excellent size but the ship is aging so fast that the pillows and couches were, ...
This was our 14 th cruise with various lines but our first with celebrity. We did 3 nights in Singapore at the beginning of our cruise and added 3nights in Hongkong after the cruise.
Certainly Hongkong is a must see city worthy of anyone’s wish list.Having said that so is Singapore.
The cruise was everything we could have hoped for .Cabin was concierge deck 9 with good size balcony.Solstice ...
Joined the ship in Singapore, embarkation a bit clunky not as smooth as others we’ve experienced but overall ok. Luggage delivered promptly and all in tact.
We had a balcony stateroom on deck 8, pleasantly surprised by the size and particularly the shower was much better than many, plenty of room. Lots of storage in our room, AC worked well, spacious balcony with comfortable chairs, very large ...
We are on a cruise in Asia from Singapore to Hong Kong and have to describe the experience as distinctly average. The staff are great and the food is plentiful.
The boat is ok if a little old fashioned and frayed at the edges.
However what we found quite remarkable is how things you would expect to be part of an expensive all exclusive package are extras. Wow do they know how to charge: ...
Wanted to visit this part of Asia.
Started off in Singapore with 2 nights in a hotel, loved it but very expensive.
Arrived on Solstice and first impressions was she is getting old and quite run down. Cabin furniture old and worn and balcony really shabby - chairs not at all inviting. Beds were comfortable and linen clean.
Most of the ports we stopped at were industrial, with a couple in ...
Pre-Covid we cruised on this ship around Japan and had the very best of times. So on 23rd December 2023 we sailed from Singapore to Bali via Thailand and Malaysia. We has a 9th floor balcony room and Aqua class dining.
Days before departure Celebrity sent me an incomprehensible email about electronic on arrival visa for Bali. I spoke to Celebrity UK and was told to ignore as this was for US and ...
My sister selected this cruise for my 70th birthday celebration. The staff in the Oceanview Dining Room and our Room Attendant Matt were good, they made the cruise enjoyable. The New Year Eve’s party was good except there were no Appetizers or Drinks, we had to purchase drinks all night. Champagne was served at midnight. One day I left my Fanny Pack in the 14th Floor bathroom, the handbag/purse ...
We chose this cruise so that we could visit friends in Sri Lanka. we upgraded to a suite which I found, particularly small. Cutbacks are very noticeable.
Even at the daily quiz, there were no prizes given for the winners anymore, like a keyring or a hat.
Too much room is taken up with the art auction.
Staff did not seem as happy as usual
. food in the buffet was very samey.

I recently had the unfortunate experience of cruising on the Celebrity Solstice, and regrettably, my overall impression is far from positive. The cruise was marred by a series of disappointments, primarily centered around the lackluster service and subpar amenities.
From the onset, the service on the ship left much to be desired. Rather than creating a relaxing environment, the staff seemed ...
