As soon as we get our luggage and meet with our steward we get our laundry ready.  Let your steward that you will have something that first night.  After that I put the laundry out and call to let him know I put some out.  And you can stuff the bags really full.

We were given multiple bags on our recent Grandeur sailing. Jeans take up a lot of room and we wanted them to be clean when we went to dinner at Compass Rose.  🤪

Now, seriously, the fact that Regent has included laundry service is a major reason why we chose it over other lux lines. We know that while good denim jeans are acceptable for dining in our town (Durango, CO), Regent (and other lux lines) don’t feel that way. No problem. There are slacks (not denim) that are cut just like jeans and are not as heavy as well, and are acceptable for evening hours on Regent. Because of this, I bought a bunch oh these slacks, and found that I liked them better than jeans — even where they are not “required”. And they are lighter in the luggage also. And if , like us, you want to spend an additional night or two in the embarkation port city, you might arrive on board in need of laundry service. If you ask, you probably will get it.

Also, we don’t wear anything that can’t be washed and dried in a drier here at home. And we certainly don’t pack anything that requires special handling on a cruise. We don’t take cruises of 16 days or more, so we have no experience with “formal optional” on Regent. But sometimes I take a sports jacket to the cruise to give extra pockets. And sometimes I wear it to dinner on Regent, because I want to do so. I haven’t worn a tie in over 12 years, and don’t know where my old ties are — if they haven’t been thrown away.

Does anyone recall whether the ship's full service laundry uses fragrance-free detergent?  

My wife is VERY sensitive to fragrances.  She does not remember much of a scent from the detergent on Regent.  If it is scented it is very light.

That's what we use at home, and I haven't noticed any fragrance in our laundry on Regent.

Yes, but it isn’t free.

. FREE Valet Laundry Service includes wash, press and fold services for Guests sailing in all suites; additionally, Regent Suite Guests receive free unlimited dry cleaning service. FREE Valet Laundry Service is not available on the final full day of each cruise, nor on the day of disembarkation.

Since all cabins on Regent are referred to as suites, what level of suite includes the free unlimited dry cleaning. If we have a butler does that mean we receive the included dry cleaning?

That’s what I was wondering also

Apparently, the Regent suite gets included dry cleaning. I don’t know if any suites below that level have included dry cleaning as an amenity. In addition, Seven Seas Society tiers of Titanium and above also get included dry cleaning. Finally, all suites on Grand Voyages and World Cruises get included dry cleaning as well.

The “Regent Suite” (Explorer, Splendor & Grandeur).


Also those guests with Titanium or above Seven Seas Society status (400+ nights) are eligible for dry cleaning without charge
