Review summary

We were very disappointed!! A very expensive cruise from the UK and it just wasn't worth it! Royal Carribwan must up their game otherwise guests will go elsewhere. Taken to the wrong hotel in Quebec and had to get another taxi to the right one. Privileges slowly being taken away!! Poor shows overall and poor merchandise in shops on board. Cabins much smaller!! On the plus side great food drink and amazing staff!

Embarkation

Entertainment

2 out of 5
Sorry but all too samey! A couple of good shows including the tenors from Las Vegas! The ice show was fab but the majority were comedians and ventriloquist ! Royal must uo their game as they seem to be cutting costs and increasing fares!!

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Most were exceptional as usual. Going out of their way to look after us. However our room steward left a lot to be desired!!

Cabin / Stateroom

1 out of 5
The cabin size has been cut since the refit! Really tight fit round the bed. Balcony now minute! Cabin was not cleaned well on arrival. Sanitary towels and tissues found in drawers together with tablets!! Not good enough!!
