I Put Cunard's New First Class "Ship-Within-Ship" To The Test
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator evaluates the premium ship-within-a-ship experience on Cunard's newest vessel, Queen Anne, specifically comparing the Princess Grill and Queen's Grill classes. After a fourteen-night stay in a Queen's Grill penthouse suite, the reviewer notes that the ship features a more modern and contemporary decor than previous Cunard vessels. The assessment covers exclusive amenities such as dedicated lounge areas, deck spaces, and specialized dining options. While the creator praises the high quality of the food and the personalized service provided by staff and butlers, they also identify several drawbacks. These include a lack of ocean views in the primary lounge, noise levels on certain decks, and a perceived lack of inclusions like gratuities or Wi-Fi compared to other luxury cruise lines. The reviewer concludes that while the Queen Anne offers an improved and highly positive experience for the Grill guests, Cunard still lags behind competitors regarding certain premium perks and inclusive benefits.
