Cunard butler

[Deafcruise]

Hi,

 

i thought I’ll ask those who have used butler in the Queens grills. What was your request? 

 

Thanks

I have asked for my favorite spirits for my bar, bags for the laundry, fresh ice, more pods for my coffee maker, to have my shoes shined, to prepare for a party with snacks and drinks, to ask for hot canapes, to serve a dinner party for six. All of which over the years have been done with a smile. I never try to be unreasonable, or snappy, but to ask nicely and in time to allow the Butler, who will serve several cabins to prioritize his or her time.

Useful to know . As we going to Hamburg I guess there’s no tender required?

No you will be at the Steinwerder Cruise Terminal. Close but a taxi ride into the Hamburg City Center.

Thank you Solent Richard for the information on which terminal as I'm meeting an old friend for my day in Hamburg,  the terminal information is not on Cunard website or voyage  personaliser

I asked her (our Butler) to organise a pre dinner drinks and canapés get together for our table of eight in our suite.

She was brilliant, far too much food, far too many drinks but we had a great time and afterwards we strolled up to the Grills restaurant to enjoy a pre-ordered special dinner - Great evening - surprised I can actually remember it!!

If you have any interest in model trains, you should look into Miniatur Wunderland. https://www.miniatur-wunderland.com/ It is a remarkable place and one of the most visited in Germany.
