Review summary

One of our worst cruises. Food was very poor. Service could have been better. Kids and teenagers were left to run riot late at night and no one seemed to care. Anthem just seems to be a badly laid out ship compared to freedom, allure, navigator etc.

Food and Dining

1 out of 5

Food was awful. Too repetitive and shrimp on the menu everyday. Onion soup was the worst I’ve had.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

The staff were ok. Not as friendly as they have been on previous cruises.

Ship Quality

2 out of 5

Ship seemed dirty and needs a deep clean. For a ship built in 2015 it just seems neglected.
