Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Did not do any of the specialty restaurants. The breakfast dining room was just okay, the dinner dining room was very good and the buffet average.

International Cafe

5 out of 5

There was a wide variety of salads, soups, sandwiches and desserts. The breakfast was also very good and the pizza was excellent.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Entertainment

3 out of 5

The first show at the theatre filled up quickly. Made it impossible to get a seat. Too many reserved seats at the back that were empty when the show started. When we tired to sit in them just before the show started we were told by other patrons that we should not seat there, those seats were reserved for handicapped people. I should not be subjected to other passengers making up their own rules.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5

The room steward was excellent, she accommodated all of our concerns. Waiters and ship personnel they were good.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

The Grand Princess is a 20 year ship and well dated.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

Shower was tiny, the room steward did an excellent job cleaning.
