Cunard Cruise Reviews

This ship demands high level. For example, tuxedos are expected at dinner on four of the nights. Other nights require men to wear at least a coat, and some times tie. No informal nights for dinner were allowed including the last night. The tours were well handled and the "help" were very good, going out of their way to insure that all details were taken care of. We especially enjoyed the lectures from well known people who knew what they were talking about.

The two most frustrating events on a cruise are embarking and disembarking. Cunard handled them flawlessly. I loved the Queen Elizabeth - a grand ship with no neon, flashing lights, or loud rap music. The ship is done in serene colors and a lot of beautiful teak wood. Very relaxing and restful. It's a very sophisticated ship with activities for adults who don't want to see any wet t-shirt contests on board. It was perfect for me and my companion. I also appreciated the fact that we dressed for dinner - it made each meal special. Cunard is my kind of cruise line. You are handled with kid gloves. C

Having cruised the Caribbean on NCL and the Mediterranean on Costa, this cross Atlantic cruise was an amazing journey. The class of this ship is every where: classy diners and balls, informative lectures, the movies in the planetarium and amazing food. We appreciated the well appointed large library located on the bow of the ship (8th deck) with comfortable armchairs and large windows providing beautiful vistas. This a ship for grow-ups.

You can be as busy or as lazy as you want. The entertainment and activities were great. Loved the watercolor class each day! And we loved the laundry!, After nine weeks traveling and lots of hand washing, our clothes needed a good wash,and it was free / even the laundry soap was complimentary. As a result, we came home with all clean clothes to put away. The beds and linens were yummy, afternoon tea is a must, and we loved all the specialty rooms hidden around the ship. Since the two of us always buy three seats on the plane, this was even cheaper than flying. We won't fly across the Atlantic again.

HUGE The speakers were fantastic. Especially nice when we had only 1.5 hours of sun on this 7-day cruise. This I think helps explain why the trough (i.e. buffet) was so crowded because few people were out on deck.

The "Queen Victoria" did not have an "enclosed" swimming pool. In a nutshell, if the weather was inclement -- and there were several rainy days -- you could not use the pool. The Card Room was reserved for Bridge players only in the morning and afternoons. Since the ship did not have facilities for those who may wish to play another card game, we needed to play in the lounges.

The ship was well maintained and well detailed.

This cruise exceeded our expectations. We felt in the Lap of Luxury the entire voyage. The crew is very hard working and made you feel like a valued guest at all times. There was never any "attitude" that you sometimes encounter -- except from some of the other passengers! All in all, the most relaxing vacation.

Food in main dining room was rather poor with only fair choices and portions were ridiculously small. The guy next to me ordered a pasta meal after he had finished his first entree. Service in buffet area poor. You had to get up to get a second cup of coffee.
