Review summary

The BEST part of the cruise was GETTING OFF when we got back to Southampton,this was the first time we cruised with Princess,and it will most certainly be the LAST.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5

The Food in th main Dining Room (Botticelli) was AWFUL,it was so poor that for six nights we chose to eat in the Grill resturant where the food was better,but this put an extra $360 on the bill.In the Buffet the Air-conditioning was so fierce when you got your Breakfast and found a table the food was stone cold.we did speak to one of the staff about it and we was told rather stupidly it was due to people opening and closing the doors,But they was always open.

I have never had a bad cruise. Yes their have been some small issues same as you may have on any holiday. But I am able to cruise and feel very fortunate to do so, many people can't afford to!

BTW, on this site you don't show any cruises listed in your past cruising experience. Did you come here to this forum just to bad-mouth Princess? Seems so...

We truly enjoy Princess, as well as Celebrity and Carnival. We are cruising with Princess this year as well. It really should be your last with Princess if you are that unhappy with them...

If you didn't like the cruise, it would be helpful to readers of this review if you expanded your opinions so we can truly understand why it was so awful. Poor reviews are just as helpful to readers as good ones. Sorry you didn't like it.
