Reviews Back on Queen Victoria
Back on Queen Victoria
Booked fortnight’s cruise less than four weeks before sailing for a good price, so good value. Food in the main dining room was better than the cruise this time last year on ‘Victoria’ - quality, presentation and taste. The fish in particular was cooked properly. Excellent cleanliness in stateroom. Disappointed with the theatre entertainment - repeats of same performers in same week … Ship’s theatre company did a super performance of ‘Come From Away’, but no real ‘Broadway’ style show with real dancers and costume changes …

Cunard Queen Anne
Reviews Poor service from ships staff
Poor service from ships staff
We have been with Cunard before but found the new ship Queen Anne to be poorly staffed and organised compared to the other ships the food on the ship was not to the same standard as the other ships Queen Mary and Victoria and we felt that we were not given the service we should of had from embarkation to the end of the voyage and it has put us off going with Cunard’s again.
