The ship amenities were amazing but the perks that normally come with royal class suites were not up to par.

Review summary

The cruise overall was great, only thing lacking is the the suite-class amenities and perks not living up to what we are entitled to per our reservation.

Embarkation

3 out of 5
Our concierge never came to meet us at the priority check in, even though we confirmed our time and the port decks called for him as we waited.

Teppanyaki

5 out of 5

Beautiful and spacious venue with nice view of windows. The food was great, a little bit salty so I will ask for reduced sodium next time. The chefs are absolutely amazing though and very entertaining… Even more than Benihana on land.

Concierge Lounge

3 out of 5

The lounge was amazing, especially the wait staff. But I give a lower rating because of the quality of service from the actual concierge, promised us things that never happened. Even gave wrong info about a port of call return time when i found out it changed.

Wonderland Imaginative Cuisine

5 out of 5

Smaller venue than I expected but it kept it intimate. Service was great. Food portions are very small at the beginning but they go on for a long time and make up for it… Totally worth it

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Our suite was comfortable and super clean, maintained well. But we did not have the upgraded toiletries, slippers that normally come with this class of suite. First we were told supply shortages but then later a different reason.

Ship tip

Definitely take advantage of all the activities and book a slot in advance, they go quick.
