Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. I looked at that for our stay a couple of weeks ago but decided against it because they don't offer any in house food service and it doesn't appear that they have 24 hr front desk staff. We were arriving early in the morning and needed to leave our bags with the hotel until our room was ready. We stayed nearby at the Clermont Victoria instead. We had a king bed and breakfast for £238. I price matched with Priceline to get that rate. It is a very nice hotel on Buckingham Palace Road and I would stay there again.
  2. The one I had from the Horizon did have the paste inside. I noticed a tray of almond croissants there this morning.
  3. Sailed out of Southampton. Doing a few UK ports and 4 ports in Iceland. No kettle in our cabin.
  4. We are on Island right now and I overheard another passenger say she had asked for a kettle for her cabin and they gave it to her. Another possibility for your bedtime tea.
  5. Found almond croissants in the coffee and dessert area of the Horizon buffet but had to ask for it. He pulled out a tray and put one on a plate for me so I felt obliged to take it. Of course I ate it and now I think I might have a problem because it was so good. Thanks a lot 😆
  6. Will look into the Almond Croissant situation and get back to you.
  7. This is an older cabin so only two outlets side by side by the desk. No USB ports. You might want to bring a power bar since we can only plug in one phone charger at a time. The hair dryer is ancient.
  8. We are experiencing moderate swells at the moment on the way to Iceland and we can hear creaking in the cabin. The balcony is larger than the regular balconies we've had in the past, with higher ceiling (some balconies on this ship aren't covered). We are close to the aft elevator which is convenient but the Horizon Court on this ship is fully forward. Taking the aft elevator to the Lido deck means you have to walk through the spa to go forward which feels a little awkward and probably unpleasant for the spa users. There is a door at the end of our hall to an outside balcony which runs the full width of the ship. There is a laundromat also down the hall which would be handy for a long cruise. Not sure if they've changed the coffee in the buffet -- we don't think it is very good. There is no International café on this ship but you can purchase coffee,which seems a little better than the buffet, from Good Spirits at Sea on deck 5. $2 for reg coffee. The shower is very tiny and there seems to be a shortage of bathmats on this ship so we are hanging ours up to dry. The bed is comfortable -- better than what we had on the Regal in December. The location is very quiet. I will happily answer any other questions.
  9. We are in E625 right now. What would you like to know?
  10. I choose a specific cabin for specific reasons so I don't like being moved without being asked first. They should have a least notified you.
  11. We were on the Regal last December and the beds were not as comfortable as we remembered. Time for Princess to change them out.
