Description

A prototype of a new class of ship designed following the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) regulations, it represents a new and very successful venture for Princess Cruises. The elegance of its interior décor and the attention to service on board are the two main strengths of this ship. A distinguishing characteristic of Royal Princess is the spectacular suspended glass walkway on the starboard side. It should be noted that there is also a music system that plays the melody from the TV series “The Love Boat” that made this company world famous.

Pleasant Cruise Experience on the Royal Princess

I liked

Comment

Boarding was fairly smooth, and overall, we had a pleasant cruise experience on the Royal Princess. The ship offered a variety of fun activities, and the quality and selection of food exceeded our expectations. The buffet staff were attentive, and the dining room service was excellent. The crew always seemed genuine and helpful. Although the ship shows signs of age, it was kept impeccably clean, with staff regularly cleaning tables, chairs, and walls. Our cabin was adequate, though it still had a shower curtain instead of doors. The entertainment was enjoyable—we particularly liked the comedy shows. We also had a great experience with an excursion in Mazatlán, which turned out to be very nice. Overall, the Royal Princess provides a solid cruise experience, with excellent food and attentive staff.

Prima esperienza con Princess ma sicuramente non l'ultima. Ottimo prezzo per essere comunque ancora stagione, per un servizio e un'efficienza straordinarie. Bella cabina lumionsa e pulita, intrattenimento e musica molto valide, spettacoli teatrali eccellenti. Ristorazione buona, senza mai confusione anche al buffet. Che dire, Royal Princess suggerita!

Royal Princess es un barco muy hermoso y elegante. Lo disfrutamos No hay muchos restaurantes, y el Spa es muy pequeño. Hermosas zonas al aire libre.
