hurwitz5 Posted August 13, 2016 #1 Share Posted August 13, 2016 We will be sailing on the Eclipse in January 2017. We sailed on this ship this past January (2016). (1) Has the Bistro on Five been converted to the ala carte sushi restaurant? If not, when will this happen? We enjoyed the free sushi in the buffet area every night st 5:30 - with cocktails on the back deck behind the buffet. (2) The Eclipse debuted in 2010. When will the ship be refurbished?

wendychloecruiser Posted August 13, 2016 #2 Share Posted August 13, 2016 The Eclipse had a refit in 2015 and the Sushi conversion of Bistro is scheduled for mid September of this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goody1 Posted August 14, 2016 #3 Share Posted August 14, 2016 We were on the Eclipse in July for 2 weeks. It is in a great condition, although it should be, being only 6 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordonJasmine Posted August 14, 2016 #4 Share Posted August 14, 2016 We love the Eclipse! Although we will miss Bistro on 5 dreadfully. No fish for us please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helen haywood Posted August 14, 2016 #5 Share Posted August 14, 2016 When Eclipse had her "refit" were the sofas removed from the open air aft dining area of the Oceanview? I ask because the last time we sailed Equinox they had been replaced by more tables. Just wondered if the sofas were still on Eclipse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helen haywood Posted August 14, 2016 #7 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Rats. I was hoping they'd gone. Or perhaps people aren't using them now as they were previously, to take naps with their feet hanging over the edges.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagoffee Posted August 15, 2016 #9 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Rats. I was hoping they'd gone. Or perhaps people aren't using them now as they were previously, to take naps with their feet hanging over the edges.... I have never seen anyone laying down on them. IMO Eclipse design in that area is the weakest of all the Solstice Class ships. I have not been on the Equinox, but all the others several times. The bar, sofas, and smaller low tables are the rail is an idea that did not work. It was eliminated on the newer E ships. I am not sure why Celebrity has not yet changed the Eclipse design in that area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helen haywood Posted August 15, 2016 #10 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Yes, it seemed to me if Equinox had switched the sofas and low tables out that the newer ships would have as well. Not a deal breaker of course! My personal favorite is Reflection's redesigned Sunset Bar. Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
