Saildude16 Posted February 16, 2017 #1 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Much has been said about the Double Tree vs. the Crown Plaza. Following are observations based upon our Jan. 14 stay prior to boarding the Regent Explorer:1. DT in in a serene, quiet location next to a marina. CP is in a downtown setting. 2. DT room and public areas were fine. Yes, the DT costs more. However, once you've decided on a cruise do you really want to cut corners on the precruise room? 3. Breakfast was fine and the cost was higher than at a fast food joint, as one would expect. 4. Free shuttle service to a nice restaurant was prompt on drop off and pickup. 5. Shuttle to the ship was on schedule. All in all it was a nice, well run "ship" in a pleasant location. The extra $30 - $50 was worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
