Looking at the photo just now, I never realized that we were all standing in front of a bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cellfree Posted August 29, 2019 #8 Share Posted August 29, 2019 We were on the Divina (during Hurricane Irma) and the Seaside with Captain Massa. November 10 we are sailing on the Meraviglia, was hoping ‘maybe’ he would be our Captain again. But it appears he will be sailing out of Hamburg on November 10.

panamapd Posted August 30, 2019 #10 Share Posted August 30, 2019 I'm also on this sailing and was just about to ask the same question - which hotel?!! We have reserved the Marriott Courtyard, that is near the train station. We booked the cruise through a German travel agent. The only help they gave us was to say that Steinwerder is an industrial area and couldn't recommend any hotels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cellfree Posted August 31, 2019 #20 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Checking Grandiosa itineraries. We are doing a TA on Carnival out of Barcelona October 2020. I see that we could sail on the Grandiosa out of Barcelona the week before. Maybe we will consider a “side to side.” Sails to Ports in Italy we have not been to.
