  1. Sorry for the confusion....our suite allows for guaranteed reservations at any dining venue each night. We will most likely give PR another chance but if no improvement, we will go to the other venues where we know food we enjoy will be served.
  2. We were very disappointed with PR on Splendor on our March sailing......from food to service. We have just put a hold on a 12 day March TA on Splendor and hope, should we do this cruise, for a better outcome in PR. We will have guaranteed reservations every evening so know we will eat well and to our liking.
  3. That was our Regent hotel on our March Splendor cruise. We decided to just have a quick meal/appetizers at the hotel restaurant on the 25th floor. Good food and drinks without leaving the hotel, where the lobby is on the 25th floor. A nice evening then into a comfortable room before embarkation the next day.
  4. Pays to complain! Just being a smarta#@. Good for you to do that….Regent cruises are expensive enough and one should expect a seamless vacation. Beginning to end.
  5. That is exactly what happened on our Splendor cruise in March. We were instructed to leave luggage outside assigned hotel room by 8 embarkation morning and they were delivered to our suite without us having to handle them. Very smooth process. Regent will give instructions to follow and you just have to show up onboard and luggage should be in your suite. Just make sure to fill in supplied tags for your suite.
  6. For our March Splendor cruise, the assigned hotel in Miami was the AKA Brickell. The buffet breakfast provided in a ball room was very underwhelming. Had we known, we would have gladly paid in the restaurant ourselves.
  7. Most of us make mistakes. I’m sure i will join that group at some point…..😇
  8. ‘Free Airfare” is a misnomer. You pay for that with your cruise fares. If you choose to book your own flights, you are subject to a reimbursement on your air travel. Like virtually all cruise lines, the word “free” is very loosely thrown out there.
  9. This gentleman is a Canadian cruise travel agent and just posted this on his You Tube channel.
  10. Time flies….our cruise on Muse was indeed in 2017.
  11. I did post my review of our Med cruise on Muse on the SS board detailing experience with dress code as well as more misses than hits with dining venues, almost immediately after our cruise was over. I don’t feel any attacks here…_we all have our likes, dislikes and opinions and I respect others have differing viewpoints than mine.
  12. Unfortunately, it was not posted 4 years or so ago as we always read requirements beforehand. Regardless, staff were just rude on that cruise. An anomaly……perhaps but it strayed with us to the point of never wanting to sail with Silversea again.
  13. It should have been announced prior to booking, paying and sailing. Then, one can make his/her choice as to how formal they want their cruise to be, or not to be.
  14. Our last Silversea cruise (Muse) was when the ship was basically new and sailed from Venice to Barcelona. Every dining venue save for the deck required men to wear jackets, and was very much enforced, even though it was never announced beforehand. One of the first nights on board, I ventured into the main dining room without a jacket, and was promptly (and fairly rudely) told I could not enter until I put one on. I did and went back, was seated, and did as most men at the restaurant did that evening, removed my jacket and put it on the back of my chair. Where is the sense in that? We found Silversea too formal and “stuffy” and agreed we would never sail with them again. We did our third Regent sailing March this year and are now committed to the Brand.
  15. Rachel.....it was good that you flew in on a Sunday, thereby missing the traffic and construction from airport to hotel. Enjoy your time in Montreal and hopefully you will get a break in the weather.
  16. McCord Museum could be good with the rain. Also Pointe-a-Calliere Museum. Think you might enjoy the BioDome and find it interesting…..Part of Space of Life. Could easily take the Metro there. Guess we used up all the good weather whilst there a month ago.
  17. If you are looking to input cruise info/address, just type under “hotel” your ship’s name and you should be good to go.
  18. When I was randomly selected a month or so ago on a short visit to Montreal, we got my results back within 24 hours. But because we were already out of the airport and arrived at our hotel by the time I was notified I was one of the "lucky chosen few" we had to go back to the airport the next day for the PCR test. Construction and traffic were brutal.
