I've checked the deck plans and don't see the Exclusive Elite Lounge available for Full Suite passengers on the Crown Princess. Is it a separate room not on the charts?

 

Thanks

 

 

Not heard of 'Exclusive Elite lounge ', just for full suite pax, when did this start?

It started with the Royal Princess and her siblings and is a lounge with concierge present some times for full suite guests only. So it really is not an "elite" lounge.

OP is not asking about the Concierge Lounge found on the Royal-class ships.

 

The amenities list is referring to the Platinum/Elite/Suite happy hour each night. Note the mention of the 'complimentary hors d'oevures'.

 

It is held between 5 and 7 each evening (except the night of the Captain's Circle party). On Crown Princess the most likely location is Skywalker's, but if there are an exceptionally high number of Platinum and Elite it could be in Explorers Lounge.

Yes it is usually held in skywalkers a very nice venue for it. Just wish the special drinks were not the weird concoctions they have been offering lately

No Exclusive Elite Lounge on the Crown Princess. The lounge referred to is the Suite/Elite/Platinum cocktail 2 hours. Not very exclusive. More than half the ship will qualify and on some cruises maybe 70%. There is a nice layout of snacks, but a limited number of $6.50 drinks. Other drinks are at the regular price. It is held in Sktywalker's or sometimes Club Fusion. Never saw it in Explorer's. You will receive a card in your cabin.

You can get regular drinks, plus a jar of bar nuts or a strip of olives at Crooner's. a much less crowded location, or you can go to Vines for wine and some tapa's or sushi. Also nicer. Don't forget BOGO, 3 to 4. Some ships have them some don't. Look for them in the Patter.

Crowd depends on the sailing/time of year. Very small crowds on our last cruise on the Caribbean in November. Crowd picked up a bit later in the cruise but never got very crowded, IMHO.

Hi! I'm the OP. I appreciate all the responses. Cruise Critic really has a wealth of information.

 

I thought there might be a separate room for the lounge such as those on Holland America and Royal Caribbean ships.

 

So, is the Concierge there only during the cocktail hour?

Sorry, but there is no Concierge there

Just want to change one item you mention: no longer sushi at vines - only tapas. I think it is because they have a seafood bar on ships now that sell the sushi:):)

Thank you, shades of Cunard, like their Grills Lounge.:evilsmile:

 

Been to the Elite/Platinum/Suite lounge for drinks and snacks many times, some call it the PES, but not being a full suite person will not get to the exclusive concierge one on Royal.:(

Exactly as explained by "fishywood"!

It's an enjoyable thing to do with friends who are Platinum/Elite/Suite.
