NSWP Posted October 7, 2017 #1 Share Posted October 7, 2017 G'day, I cannot find much information on the 'Concierge Lounge' on Royal/Regal Princesses. What is it used for and which class of pax have access? Thanks.;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimAOk1945 Posted October 7, 2017 #2 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Good question! I hope someone who has used it will answer. If it's like the Concierge Lounge (also called Suite Lounge) on the Royal Caribbean ships, it will be a nice feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

decamp303 Posted October 7, 2017 #4 Share Posted October 7, 2017 For suite passengers and not much to it. I found it anti-climatic when we sailed Regal last summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimAOk1945 Posted October 7, 2017 #5 Share Posted October 7, 2017 For suite passengers and not much to it. I found it anti-climatic when we sailed Regal last summer. Is there a Concierge on duty in the Lounge? The Royal Caribbean ships we have been on have a Suite Lounge with a Concierge on duty during certain hours.

decamp303 Posted October 7, 2017 #6 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Yes. Concierge is on certain hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjrockman Posted October 7, 2017 #7 Share Posted October 7, 2017 It has continental breakfast in the morning and snacks in the afternoon. Always has juices and an espresso/cappuccino machine. All of that is self service. Also, quiet place to read or use tablet. Nice size. Finally, it is staffed by a concierge with posted hours and is only available to full suite cabins. The actual concierge (Staff Member) is our favorite amenity of the lounge. After we board and eat lunch, we head to this lounge to make all of our speciality dining reservations. What used to either be a long wait on the DINE line, or a run around the ship to the different dining venues to make reservations, is now a comfortable seat while the concierge calls around and secures our reservations. We always get the best times through the use of the concierge. Hope that explanation helps. Enjoy, Paul Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSWP Posted October 7, 2017 Author #8 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Thanks for clarification re Concierge Lounge.

Paul Sent from my iPad using Forums Paul, thanks for the quick reply. It sounds wonderful! We have enjoyed the Concierge service on our Holland America and Royal Caribbean cruises. It's great to know we will have that benefit on our Princess cruise as well. Happy Travels!

Go-Bucks! Posted October 22, 2017 #13 Share Posted October 22, 2017 I saw some nice pictures of this lounge. Not sure how much I'll use the concierge, but the fruit, cheese and sandwiches look good. The best thing is the latte machine!! Now I can get one at Sabatini's for breakfast and others whenever I want in this lounge (it has regular and decaf). Don't have to use up my coffee cards - can save them for when I'm not in a full suite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will also get a very nice fruit bowl in your suite. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azgrandmax3 Posted October 22, 2017 #20 Share Posted October 22, 2017 I just got an upgrade offer and will be in my first (and probably last) fancy pants suite. Where is this concierge? We recently spent 30 days on the Royal with con. service. Whatever you book double check for yourself. He did book a couple items for us, good thing we rechecked. He had not followed through, or confirmed with us. Room is center ship, we found it confining to stay and read or relax. Did grab a few snacks and returned to our cabin to enjoy.

Rare Host CJSKIDS Posted October 23, 2017 #21 Share Posted October 23, 2017 I used it on the last 2 cruises because our suite was right by it but I wouldn't bother going to it if my suite was far. Other than to have them book my specialty dining. The Haven on NCL was worth going to from anywhere on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimAOk1945 Posted October 23, 2017 #22 Share Posted October 23, 2017 We enjoy using the Concierge Lounge on our Royal Caribbean and Holland America cruises so I'm sure we would enjoy it on a Princess cruise as well.
