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.

First time cruiser

Travelling with Cunard was my first cruise, and basically I was very unsure as I have dreaded the idea of 2000 people on a boat and I have a few food allergies. From the moment we boarded I was absolutely in love with the boat, the decor, the very friendly staff and most of all the menus in the restaurants. The head waiter in our restaurant would give me the next day’s menu and told me that the chef could make any dish safe for me to eat! I never missed out on the most amazing dishes. I cannot thank the staff enough. The trip has given me confidence in cruising. We had an amazing trip. Thank you Cunard
