Bathrobes

[discru]

Quick question while I'm packing....

Do platinum crown and anchor members get bathrobes in cabin upon arrival, or is that a diamond perk?

[Ourusualbeach]

Platinum and above but now you need to ask as many ships do not automatically put them in the cabin.

[Norwich Cruiser]

No longer left automatically so ask your cabin steward and he will bring you them.

Awesome!! Thank you both!!

So bathrobes are not available to first timers?

Not unless they are in suites. However, you can try asking the stateroom attendant. They will usually try to accommodate you.

You are correct. But if you ask your stateroom attendent, you just might get one.

Anyone have luck getting a plus size robe?

Okay what is the "cruise documentation"? I printed off my sail pass and tags. I usually sail Princess so what other differences is there between RC & Princess?

No. Thought the robes were " one size fits all".

Cruise docs include the cruise contract, itinerary, etc. It normally does not need to be printed.

I am VERY disappointed that there aren't robes anymore. We haven't been on a cruise for four years, so it is a big deal for us. Those luxurious details are what we look forward to.

No one said that there aren't robes any more. Where did you get that idea? It has always been a perk of Platinum and up. Never for "all passengers". And as suggested, others should politely request one from the cabin steward, and s/he will try to accommodate.

I'm not Platinum.

I'm not Platinum.

So then you probably never had the robes on Royal before, unless you were in a suite.

I guess I never did get a robe on RCI. Just Celebrity and Carnival with a regular room and no special status.

Never can understand the love of bathrobes! Too thick, heavy , and frequently very scratchy, like old towels. Also don't need a heavy robe for the Caribbean. Much prefer to bring a lightweight, easily packed one from home.

 

I always return mine; or, if not in cabin, I don't ask for one.

Never use them myself either. In a 2 bed/2 bath suite by myself on Serenade for 12 nite BOS/FLL Repo last Oct. Was 2 reg think robes but also had 2 thinner robe in closet. First time saw the thin ones...

I'm platinum. On my last cruise I asked for the robes and was told that I need to request in advance of the cruise, as they are limited. After mentioning to guest services, they finally appeared. I will 'call ahead' for my robes on the next cruise.

I would take that comment as more of a comment from a cabin steward who tried to get out of getting robes for you. There has never been a place to request robes on the website and as a TA we have never had any communication from Royal on having to request robes for our clients ahead of time.

Yeah, that’s total nonsense.
