Review summary

The biggest let down was the food very repetitive in main restaurants & very disappointing in Waterfront buffet service , getting a table was a big problem most of the time. The smokers congregated around the food tables around pool area. Excellent service & staff , great entertainment but not enough seats in all the venues we ended up standing some of the time. . Lots to do in the day & enjoyed all the lectures etc . Metropolis bar really relaxing and quieter but still had entertainment

Smokers are entitled to a table as much as a non smokers.. The port side is non smoking for people who wish no to be sociable. My experience is the smokers side is the fun side of the ship.. Don’t like it??? Move on!!!
