smithius Posted May 31, 2015 #1 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Does anyone have a copy of the room service menu for the Star? I can't seem to find one and would love to see what our options are. It's a Hawaiian cruise if that helps (sorry, I'm new at cruising). Thank you :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eaglecw Posted May 31, 2015 #4 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Is there a charge to use room service? For Breakfast or a snack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JF - retired RRT Posted May 31, 2015 #5 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Is there a charge to use room service? For Breakfast or a snack $3.00 for pizza, no charge for anything else. There is a charge for orders after 11PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubfan63 Posted May 31, 2015 #6 Share Posted May 31, 2015 $3.00 for pizza, no charge for anything else. There is a charge for orders after 11PM. There is not a charge for food after 11 pm on Princess, unlike other cruise lines like Royal Caribbean and NCL (actually NCL charges for all room service).

DRS/NC Posted June 1, 2015 #7 Share Posted June 1, 2015 I was on the Star in early March (to Hawaii & back). Room Service was very prompt at breakfast! If I marked that I wanted my order between 8:00 & 8:30, it was there at 8:00! That was true every morning that I ordered (port days). Even on the last day, back in San Francisco, I'd marked 7:00-7:30 & it came at 7:10. This was also the first time I'd been able to order on the last morning -- maybe something new(?)

Colo Cruiser Posted June 1, 2015 #8 Share Posted June 1, 2015 There is not a charge for food after 11 pm on Princess When did that change? It was in effect on our Emerald in March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belle Posted June 1, 2015 #9 Share Posted June 1, 2015 No charge for room service in Feb. 2015 on the Star or anytime I sailed on her or any other Princess ship I've been on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribill Posted June 1, 2015 #10 Share Posted June 1, 2015 (edited) When did that change? It was in effect on our Emerald in March. Was no such charge on the Emerald in April. Just the usual Pizza charge. Edited June 1, 2015 by caribill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribill Posted June 1, 2015 #11 Share Posted June 1, 2015 $3.00 for pizza, no charge for anything else. Party platters have a charge and canapes have a charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brighteyes00 Posted June 29, 2015 #13 Share Posted June 29, 2015 I was on the Star's 7 day Alaska to Vancouver cruise this past week and while the only charge for food shown on the menu was a $3.00 charge for pizza, there is actually a $2 gratuity automatically charged every time. Princess sneaks that little fact in well away from the menu. I didn't realize this until saw a $4 gratuity charge on my card and told my husband I was accidentally double charged for the tip I gave the RS attendant. (I felt like such a pain to be ordering a glass of milk at 2am I tipped the guy $2.) There is an option for giving a gratuity you have to fill in yourself when you sign the RS receipt. I assumed my husband had also tipped RS since we only ordered it in the middle of the night and I felt really guilty about it for some reason. When I commented on the $4 charge I found out my husband never tipped so I sat down and read through the info binder a little more carefully. Not quite sure how Princess can claim there's no room service fees and then charge a $2 gratuity (regardless of what you order or the time.) I assume they get away with it only because the gratuity fee info pops up somewhere else. For $4 my glass of milk could've at least been colder than room temp.

Rare cr8tiv1 Posted July 4, 2015 #16 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Order the Chocolate Cake. One of the best simple desserts on any of the ships. Love it. Club sandwiches come with chips, but you can order french fries if you prefer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shredie Posted July 4, 2015 #17 Share Posted July 4, 2015 There is no auto tip for room service on Princess, no matter what you order or when you order it. True. I have never been charged a tip, but I do offer one, usually in cash. Some people just have a problem with tipping, period. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KruzPrincess Posted July 4, 2015 #20 Share Posted July 4, 2015 I've been cruising on Princess for 23 years and have never been charged for room service delivery, except for the pizza. I do tip in cash, though. I know there was talk that the Regal was going to start charging for room service, but they rescinded the decision. Is there a new charge for middle of the night room service? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brighteyes00 Posted July 6, 2015 #22 Share Posted July 6, 2015 I'm not sure where it is in the stateroom notebook. I believe it's after the in room catering info. What I can tell you is that I am looking at the passenger folios for both my husband and myself and we have a $2 charge that coincides with every call made to room service except the one time I purposely gave a tip. There's a $4 charge for that one. LOCATION: room serv TYPE: tp-gratuity REMARKS: 268832 970 I have no idea what the code under remarks means. I thought it was the id# for the delivery person, but the code is the same every time and the person was not. I did notice that we were not charged for a gratuity the one time we had breakfast sent to the room using the little form they leave for you every night.

indexcards Posted July 6, 2015 #24 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Brighteyes00, Any chance you saved the patters from the Anchorage to Vancouver cruise? I will be on that one in September and would love that information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImmNo19 Posted July 8, 2015 #25 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I ordered hot chocolate from room service and there was a gratuity added automatically. Maybe it was because there was a charge for hot chocolate. We were on the Star last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
