Celebration


Recommended Posts

Returned on Monday from first Cruise & Stay

 

Loved every minute...however I must say I was extremely disappointed in the service in all areas apart from "Horizons"

I will pit this down to a one off experience and would certainly not let this prevent me from booking again

 

Vibration; well on deck 7 room 120 and the vibration sent me to sleep at night

Fantastic:D

This was a Suite, lovely and spacious, we had curtain tracks between bedroom & sitting area , No Curtains?

Curtain Tracks & Tie Back Hooks between bedroom area and cabin door, No Curtains?

Full size bathroom, did use the bath once :-)

 

 

Hotel was great too

 

Downside: Kilt Taken and worn for Captains night:)

transfer from ship to hotel not offloaded with luggage:(

Coach company contacted within 10 minutes of leaving but never seen again

Glad you had a good time! we have this cabin 120 on Crimean Discovery starting Monday, was the view obstructed at all?

 

Hi

I would say it was a good view but slight obstructions between "posts" structure of ship ( not sure of actual name )

There was certainly a larger area between "posts" for room next door

You could also see bottom of life boats, IMO this did not affect view

I was however able to sit on top of sofa and get some pics

Hope this helps

It was a lovely cabin....you will see what I mean re curtains lol

Have a fab time:-)

Lol I am sure you were very smart

It was not offloaded from coach and luggage was delivered to room

We never noticed, Thomson Rep contacted coach company within 10 minutes of coach leaving but no luck:-(

We had window curtains it was the extra ones that were missing, all suites appeared the same

My husband just informed me the posts I referred to we're actually supporting the lifeboats lol

Meant to say there was only one European socket in the whole suite that we could find

There was 2 American sockets under cupboard where your assorted glasses are displayed with ice bucket....sorry this was never filled

We purchased wine however and used the glasses;)

Thankyou for the information, can I ask you another question, booking a suite you get Premier boarding how does that work?

Well that's another story

Basically when you get off the transfer from airport to cruise terminal you get off the bus to collect an envelope at a desk

It was clearly marked in pink I think SUITE

The next advisor looked at our envelope and put us in a queue

We stood waiting for a good while when I noticed a sign further down to the right saying priority boarding, there were people on our coach who were not in suites who were escorted to this queue

Once aboard the ship, next day we met to organise celebration pack with Celebration Co Ordinator we asked about this as surely it's all payable extras

She apologised stating we should have been put in priority queue

Too late by then lol

Also when you get off coach and get put in queue, once you are being seen to they offer safety deposit boxes, we took one chargeable to MasterCard they give you a fob

We could not work our what fob was for as ours was digital, checked at reception to be told Suites get them free!! So again we had been missed as paying for an expensive upgrade....just little bits to help you along:)

Hope you asked for a refund on your safe?? We have never had to queue very long anyway to board even in peak summer.

 

Who was the Social Hostess by the way? Was it Scottish Lucy?
