Review summary

Our 17th Celebrity Cruise and they continue to excel with their service, friendliness and hospitality. Quality of the dining room menu and food is not as good as prior cruises. Quality of the dining room wait staff was exemplary. All of our excursions were well executed. The two day trip to Queenstown is well worth the cost!!

Surprisingly good condition considering six years of wear and tear. Carpeting was thread bare in some areas. Cabin service and room service were excellent. Jorge was exceptional.

I agree, I went on a Transpacific cruise on Solstice and once I tried Celebrity for the first time I was super impressed. Decided to do a trip on the Constellation which was well worth the cost.
