Editorial Summary

Gary Bembridge examines the luxury experience of cruising within the Cunard Queens Grill category. He details the various suite grades, ranging from Grand Suites to Queen Suites, noting that accommodations often feature art deco inspired decor and separate baths and showers. The creator highlights several premium amenities provided to guests, including butler service, a complimentary bar with selectable spirits, a pillow concierge, and champagne upon arrival. Beyond the cabins, the Queens Grill offers a dedicated area on certain ships that includes a private lounge, a concierge desk, and exclusive dining facilities. The dining experience is a central focus, characterized by dedicated staff, open seated dining, and an extensive menu that allows for off-menu requests and pre-ordered delicacies like caviar. While much of the ship remains open to all passengers, Queens Grill guests benefit from priority services such as check-in, boarding, and disembarkation. Bembridge concludes that while the cost can reach up to one thousand dollars per person per day, the combination of high quality dining, attentive service, and plush accommodations makes it a premier way to cruise.
