London Dining Room

The food was delicious! We had the most amazing wait staff also! We absolutely loved Martinez, Edwin and Deyci! They were friendly and personable! They did a great job acccomodating our picky eater! They remembered what we liked and were very quick to take our orders and serve us. We could not have asked for better service!!

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
i wish there were more pools or bigger pools. They got a little crowded. Also I wish the pool decks were a little less slippery.

Photo Shop

3 out of 5

It seemed very unorganized and was hard to find our pictures in the gallery. It took way too much time and we didn’t want to waste our vacation time going theu toms of pictures so there were some pictures they took that we would have probably bought but we didn’t even see them because we gave up searching. I would suggest a better way to organize pictures maybe by attaching the room number or folio number some how.

Club Monaco Casino

3 out of 5

The casino was fun but it was way too smoky for me. Maybe offering a non-smoking area would help people who are sensitive to smoke be able to enjoy the casino more.

Capitol Atrium And Bar

Service and Staff

The whole staff was wonderful! Edmund, our room steward went above and beyond to make sure we had what we needed and were comfortable. Our wait staff, Martinez, Edwin, and Deyci were all amazing!! They were friendly and personable and did a great job accommodating our picky eater. The food was wonderful as well. The cruise director, Simon, was awesome! He made everything fun and was approachable and friendly. All of the entertainment/fun staff were great. Some of our favorites were George and Estevez. All of the bar staff was great.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
The ship was very clean. The cabin decor was a bit outdated but I know they plan to dry dock the ship next year for renovations.

Ship tip

Bring a fan and an extra blanket. Our room was close to the engine and stayed very hot but we heard other people talking about how cold their cabin was so I’d bring both to be prepared. Also, bring a light jacket for nighttime activities. The auditorium and comedy lounge were cold.

Love Triumph

I am glad that you had a great time on the Triumph. I sailed her twice this year and had a wonderful time as the crew is the best that I have ever sailed with. I got to know quite a few of the current crew.
