Alaska Northern Glacier Cruise

Sail date: August 19, 2016

Ship: Celebrity Millennium

Cabin type: Suite

Cabin number: 6131

Traveled as: Couple

Reviewed: 8 years ago

Review summary

Good ports - Ketchikan, Icy Strait Point, and Hubbard Glacier were new for us - and Juneau and Skagway are good stops for any cruise.

The Millennium is an older ship - so staterooms are a little smaller than what we are used to. Because it is smaller, hard to find a "quiet" place on the ship where you can read or relax.

We added a land tour - and that is a must. Celebrity did a great job on this part of trip.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Luminae is a great perk for suite guests - but it is rather small on this ship so it can be loud if there is a large group (and our cruise had 3 large groups!)

Only one good entertainer.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

Our butler was just ok (we were spoiled by the first suite sailing on Celebrity - our first butler was fantastic)

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

An older ship - recently refurbished so clean. But small - our stateroom was the smallest suite we have ever stayed in.
