Cunard Queen Anne: What Have They Done? Our Honest Review

Editorial Summary

The creator provides a comprehensive review of the Cunard Queen Anne, evaluating its design, amenities, and service. The review highlights several positive aspects, including the excellent service, the improved deck areas like the Pavilion Pool, and the high quality of the Commodore Club. The creator also commends the new specialty dining options and the Artisans Food Hall, noting that while the service is slower than a traditional buffet, the food quality is high. However, the review also identifies significant drawbacks. The creator criticizes the ship's modern design for being too muted and lacking the iconic glamour found on previous Cunard vessels, specifically citing the Grand Lobby and the Queen's Room as disappointments. Additional criticisms include a confusing, maze like layout caused by the central placement of the Grills section, a poorly designed promenade deck that lacks views, and long queues in the Britannia dining room. Ultimately, the creator concludes that while the Queen Anne is a polished and refined product that they would encourage others to sail on, it does not quite reach the status of a masterpiece or a ship for the ages.
