We sailed on this ship because of the itinerary and because we had sailed on the Silver Whisper 9 years ago -- that time the ship was exceptional and we have wonderful memories of that cruise. The ship is now showing its age and needs a complete makeover - - not just a change of the carpet - - a complete makeover. It needs to be modernized both as to technology and aesthetics - - furniture and ...
First off, what is it about air conditioning? I had the thermostat turned all the way down in my room and the temperature was still just marginally cool. Definitely not comfortable enough for me to get a good nights sleep. And on the last night I found out that the entire ship was on one central system and not really adjustable by room. Even the observation room was not adjustable. So stick a ...
We chose this cruise based on (a) destinations - we'd not been to some of the ports of call), (b) timing, and, (c) we'd been on several Silversea ships (including the Whisper in the past.
Key points;
1. Virtually all the staff were attentive and helpful -especially our butler.
2. The food in La Terrassa was good - especially the evening meals - we ate there twice.
3. On the other hand ...
We usually travel on Crystal Cruise Lines our friend told us that Silverseas was as good or better boy was she wrong. Lets start with the positives. The rooms were very spacious, the beds were comfortable, the closets very big and the bathroom was oversized but it stops there. The staff were mostly rude! I can not count how many times they told us to go to our room and order room service. ...
Our Mediterranean cruise from Venice to Nice on Silver Whisper. All I can say is everything was average,food ok ,entertainment ok.Service not good, with no attention to detail.
Having travelled before with Silverseas a few years ago,we loved it so much ,we encouraged a group of friends to join us on this cruise.There were 10 of us in fact.
My husband and I were so disappointed and ...
We selected this cruise because of the Silver Sea reputation for luxury. This cruise had the correct dates for our group’s calendar and it was visiting ports of Croatia. Nearest competitor was Regent. All inclusive was very nice and the food and alcohol selections were good. Up charge dining at Le Dame was worth the price but the wine selections were the same as those for the other dining areas ...
We booked this cruise with friends. They liked the itinerary because it stopped in Slovenia and his ancestry is from Slovenia. We wanted to try Silversea, they portray themselves as having ULTRA LUXURIOUS ships. They claim 6 star ratings!
Let's be honest. The Silver Whisper is tired and worn. Hasn't been updated in years.
Not luxurious.
It has good points: spacious stateroom with ...
Have sailed on silversea before and was very pleased with the experience so didn’t think twice before booking another cruise with them .We chose this cruise because of itinerary-specifically the overnight in Sorrento.
Embarkation process was smooth and quick. Our veranda suite was wonderful. Nice large space. Only downside was that there was only one outlet that could handle our U.S. plugs. We ...
