We are booked into a sky suite on Millenium. I understand that there are robes and slippers in the rooms. Are the slippers reused or can you take them with you? 

You can take the slippers with you. If you don’t they are probably discarded.

The robes are washed and re-used. But you can purchase new robes.

The slippers are not reused.  I usually take my pair home as they work great on long haul flights.  On some lines and cabin categories you only get a robe to use during your cruise.  If you wish to keep it you can buy one.  If you inadvertently pack it you will be charged.

Not that we're in the market for new robes this November, but had never previously noted that as a RS 'perk'.  Verbal from butler?

Really don’t remember, but do remember that if in ships with retreat that they would engrave robes with your initials, we didn’t take robe in royal suite , did ask butler last month and was told to take them , also pajamas. We were in penthouse last month.

The slippers are ok if you have size 15 feet    They are one size same as the robes.  One size big enough to fit people over 6ft.   My wife is 5 -2 and the robes are way too large.  They drag the ground and cover her hands.  She has to roll up the sleeves.
 

We also take the slippers home and donate them to the shelters  
 

Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

We were in a RS on our recent Summit cruise. Our butler brought two wrapped robes for us to take home. We didn't ask. It just happened.

What was your experience in the PH?  Tell all--pluses and minuses, please.

No negatives, other than it was really a little to big for 2 people, we did a move up to get it , we were treated like royalty, we did like the two bathrooms, no need for the second bedroom. The bathroom was bigger than most cabins , two stocked mini fridges, liquor setup of your choice picked two liter bottles one of scotch other gin both top shelf. Our butler escorted us to Luminae and informed staff we were in penthouse, we did get really nice tables , normally a table for four even when it was the two of us . Luminae maitre d heard us when we said we were eating in steak restaurant one night and went over to the steak restaurant to make sure we were ok, also on high end suites all specialty restaurants are free. You get to keep the robes and pajamas they give you . We were celebrating my wife birthday and invited those interested from roll call for a drink to see the suite and asked for some snacks for 6 or 8 and butler brought a huge selection a hot and cold appetizers, then the entire concierge staff came and sang happy birthday, gave us a cake, flowers and a bottle of wine .also most comfortable bed I ever slept in . Doubt we will do penthouse again but it was fun.

Thanks for the information.  We are treating ourselves next year to the Edge PH and I have looked all over CC but find it very hard to find any info on the suite.  I have viewed almost every YouTube video out there, as well as Celebrity's own videos, on the PH but I prefer to get "insider info".

Have often thought to ask if they have an onboard tailoring service.  I'm 5'7" and Charline is 5'1", and the bathrobes can be used as sails if the propulsion system fails!

Would be nice if they had different sizes , I am 6’4” and 270 pounds, so robe Is definitely to small for me , my wife likes them . Did see someone wearing the robes walking around in the evening.

@George C  Curious if they recently changed the robe.    We are in a RS for 9/5 cruise and the message from the Concierge said they have Pajamas engraved with your initials.   I refused the offer. 

 

Second Question -  When you sailed in the Penthouse out of Terminal 25, did they have the upper suite VIP Desk (Previously called Special Delivery Desk) open?   If so where is is located and do you drop luggage with the regular porters or do they take your bags at the VIP desk?

We had heard the same.  Are the PJs one-size-fits-all as well?

 

Our initials are CA and CA.  How to know which are which?  Real first world problem there. 😄

 

Then again, we don't really need PJs, but if they insist, I might have some monogrammed (HOPE they're not engravable!) to take home to my grandson.

They have you covered -   Here's what I got

As an added special touch for our suite guests, 
we are now providing complimentary pajamas and would like 
to know if you would like this added amenity and if so 
what size would you prefer?  We currently have:

S/M or
L/XL
and have been advised that the size runs a bit big.  

We are also able to include monogrammed initials 
or 1st/last name if preferred.  Please let me know if 
pajamas would be of interest.

I guess you could ask them to just give them to you um-monogramed for the grandson, or have them monogram his first name on them.

Figured you might have gotten something like from the shore-side concierge before your SS cruise in a few days.  You were definitely the right guy to ask!

I was kind of thinking of the latter.  Have managed to assure that just about all of his golf gear is monogrammed.  Even found a decent deal on ProV1s with monograms for Christmas.  I've found that if he knows the supply isn't endless, he's more circumspect about getting heroic during tournaments.  It's his first year in college.  Maybe if he has fancy PJs, he'll take the time to wash them once in awhile!

We were able to get one of our robes last cruise embroidered with the initials of someone not traveling with us. 

 

I would love to see the shape they use to model the robes...a skinny urangatang, perhaps - the length of those sleeves!

 

We asked the shoreside concierge re the monogrammed pjs and were told that they have a ‘supply issue’ for the Silhouette UK Cruises so we are not expecting anything...

 Perhaps you could request a different color thread for one set of initials.

When we sailed in RS & PH from T25 the shoreside concierge emailed a placard to be put in the windshield of the car/taxi that allowed the driver to pull up right at the entrance.  There was a staff person standing there with a sign for "Special Delivery" and a porter to take your luggage before you entered the terminal.  She was verifying your name and suite number on a list she had.

About 9 years ago I took the ships tour (great tour) on the Emerald Princess. When it was finished, along with other stuff, I was given a robe. Nice plush robe, still have it and use it.

 

I always wanted to take Celebrity's tour. Either it was fully booked or something came up. Does Celebrity do the same with getting a robe?

 

Also BTW, you get slippers also in Aqua Class which you can keep. They also come in a sealed plastic bag. I don't care for them because they are too loose. So we just give them away at Christmas.
