It seems silly not to provide a coffee section like all the other ships. I frequently get my early morning coffee myself in that section. So now if I want coffee, tea, ice tea, ice or water I have to ask one of the crew to get it for me? This ship seems like a step backwards in their design.

This ship seems like a step backwards in their design. They did have pots that they left on the tables in the eatery. I often sat outside where they didn’t have pots, so I did wander around with coffee cups at times till someone could help. The water pkg is still only a bit over $7 so since I didn’t have a pkg I just ordered 2 twelve packs prior to boarding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless the Sun Princess is different than the other ships, the IC doesn't serve the regular coffee for free. It's typically served at the buffet area. If they do, that's great news.

wishIwascruising Posted June 17 #39 Share Posted June 17 Noise from Casino on Sun Princess? We will be on Deck 9 in a Cabana Cabin right ABOVE the casino. I should have checked that out before booking but frankly, I was intrigued by the Cabana MiniSuites. Does anyone know about the noise level? I know they have slot machines etc that make a lot of noise and wondered if it carried to the staterooms above. I think I read from another poster that the smoke from the casino doesn't seem to travel much. Thanks for any response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they've removed them? A little table with hot water and coffee dispensing containers are not what I will call a station. Celebrity has a full section with Coffee brewed, hot water, great choices of teas, lemons, honey, sugar, real cream for coffee, napkins ( on Princess we couldn't find paper napkins), spoons, trash drop, variety of juices in the morning and other drinks at lunch and dinner. Not the end of the world, but this should have been taking in consideration in the Eatery design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the end of the world, but this should have been taking in consideration in the Eatery design. This new Sun Princess is very different to us in many ways, especially the layout of the Eatery. Not providing a coffee/drink station is very strange. It's hard to believe the designers of the ship simply overlooked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They the same thing on other ships until around 6 AM since the buffet isn't usually set up for service until that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
