BennBilly Posted June 9, 2004 #1 Share Posted June 9, 2004 We will be sailing from South Hampton to NY I believe September 10th or llth. Our TA has told us there is self service laundry as well as laundry service on board. We will have been in London for 7 days prior to sailing and are wondering if this information is accurate.

atticus Posted June 9, 2004 #2 Share Posted June 9, 2004 There is self service laundry on each passenger cabin deck. If I remember correctly there are about six washers and six dryers. No charge to use them and the cruise I was on was not charging for powdered detergent. Also two irons and ironing boards - but I found these difficult to use as they are right against the wall and the laundry room is quite small. Did not use the laundry service on the QM2 - only dry cleaning and I found their rates comparable to what I pay in Phila. Hope htis helps and enjoy your crossing!

Crouton Posted June 9, 2004 #3 Share Posted June 9, 2004 The washers and dryers are new and work well. BYO fabric softener/Bounce etc as all they may have available is powdered detergent. I think they lock the doors at 9pm to keep the noise down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeanne S Posted June 10, 2004 #6 Share Posted June 10, 2004 I personally inspected them (but did not use) and they look impressive. I did laundry and ironing on QE2 and was pleased with the set up. Just came off the Radisson Navigator and they had a automatic detergent dispenser hooked up to the machine (all gratis). I was concerned as their was no fabric softener but those machines were great, everyting felt soft enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vince_g Posted June 15, 2004 #7 Share Posted June 15, 2004 BennBilly, If you want to do laundry, plan on trying to get to the laundry room at 7:30 when they open. I did, and was glad I got there early because many people showed up looking to do their wash.
