Princess Cruises Crown Princess Ship Review and Premium Dining Guide - all venues tried and tested!
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
This review of the Crown Princess examines the passenger experience following a drydock makeover, focusing on dining, amenities, and entertainment. The creators evaluate various bars, noting that Crooners is a standout for its friendly service and drink value, while other venues like the Wheelhouse Bar feel too large. They provide a detailed look at the Sanctuary, an adults-only luxury area, recommending it as an indulgent treat despite its high cost. The dining segment covers main dining rooms, which they found to be above average, and critiques the buffet area for its use of heat-sucking plastic plates. The review also highlights premium dining options, specifically praising the Salty Dawg gastropub, Sabatini's Italian trattoria, and the upscale Crown Grill. While they enjoyed the 24/7 International Cafe, they expressed concern regarding single-use plastic cups at the pool. The video concludes that the ship offers a high-quality experience with excellent crew and food, though passengers should prepare for additional costs if they choose to utilize the premium venues and services.
