Rare SteelCityCruiser10 Posted March 12, 2023 #4 Share Posted March 12, 2023 Yea we checked it out very briefly in the way to the lounge for trivia. There was 1 crew member in there on his phone. It’s kind of a game room type room. There was a computer terminal and some books, puzzles etc if I remember right but no smoking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare SteelCityCruiser10 Posted March 12, 2023 #5 Share Posted March 12, 2023 This was also pre- dry dock so maybe it totally changed - don’t know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
proposal Posted March 13, 2023 Author #6 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Thank you. I doubt that after dry dock they put the lounge back in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davekathy Posted March 13, 2023 #7 Share Posted March 13, 2023 On our March 2022 B2B Explorer cruise the Connoisseur Club (no longer allows smoking 👍) was designated as the Pinnacle Lounge for those cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how that little room was bad, it kept people in one spot to smoke. It's not like the casinos where they force you to basically walk through them, it was out of the way with a closed door and proper ventilation.

I'm not forced to walk through the smoking lounge, aka casino either. Personal opinion. Glad to see RC is taking baby steps to eliminate indoor smoking. I don't blame you smokers, I blame RC for allowing inside smoking. RC offers smokers smoking areas with great views, bar service and food near by.

We did enjoy the non smoking casino, but we are looking forward to being back on Royal. The crew all seemed miserable and we didn’t enjoy the service at all.

We like both cruise lines equally but cruise experiences vary from ship to ship and week to week. On Reflection we experienced the most happy, upbeat, and helpful crew that we've seen in a few years. Sorry you didn't have the same experience. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfect atmosphere for enjoying a cigar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
