Of our total of 16 cruises, this was one of the best. The ship, the service, and particularly the itinerary (the UK, Ireland, and Le Havre) were all excellent. We were also extremely lucky with the weather. The ship was in excellent condition, and we enjoy the layout of the Majestic class of ships. We had 6:40 pm reservations for two in one of the main dining rooms, and were always seated immediately. I would rate the food as good to very good, with the exception of the chicken parmesan one evening. The ship must have received a great deal on thin, tough chicken patties.. The service was consistently good but the waiters were quite rushed - not much pleasant conversation. The buffet offered a wide variety of choices at all meals; we just used it for breakfast and lunch. I was disappointed that fresh pineapple only showed up one day at breakfast. We do notice at least one cutback on each Princess cruise. The major cutback on this cruise was the elimination of the pasta course in Sabatini's while keeping the price at $55 plus mandatory tip. The food was very good but it's now a little hard to justify the upcharge. We enjoy the Princess entertainment, and this cruise was no exception. In addition to the production shows (very high production values and excellent talent, but somewhat "weird" themes) the variety performers (musicians, juggler, ventriloquist, magician) were all extremely talented. A highlight for us on Princess is "cake day" where a variety of well-decorated and tasty cakes are available at noon in the buffet on a sea day, after the culinary demonstration. They did not disappoint! The crew were friendly and efficient, and seemed to be enjoying their jobs. The strongest aspect of the cruise was the ports: all different and worth visiting. Without this cruise we would have seen few if any of them. Edinburgh was the highlight, but all were enjoyable. We did several Princess excursions that were fine, but in Glasgow, Dublin, and Edinburgh we took the trains into town and did our own thing. That worked very well and saved some money. Three of the ports were served by tenders and at Glasgow we had a two hour wait for the tender. We learned our lesson and were in line well before the tender tickets were distributed at the next tender port. Finally, as we have seen previously, our balcony cabin only had one chair. The second chair was apparently removed from all Princess ships several years ago. We truly enjoyed the cruise and the few problems were quite minor.
Overall a very good cruise. Room and steward was great. Food was hit and miss depending on venue it seems. - Symphony orders were mixed up and staff not focused/attentive. - Alegro was extremely slow and staff not attentive. - Concerto was great. Staff attentive and quick. -Buffet was pretty good Entertainment was pretty good. Shore excursion department was not good. - One of our excursions was changed (time)and significantly upset time in Kirkwall. Brought forward concern and staff did nothing to resolve. - Ships Excursion didn't get priority disembark in LeHavre and therefore left over an hour late which took away time in Paris. Non-excursion people given same opportunity to disembark as paid ship excursion people. Brought concern to staff and no resolution. Debarkation was very disorganized. - Staff totally missed our number and bus left late as people didn't get off in order...confusion and congestion in baggage area.
I sailed on the Majestic Princess for an 11‑day British Isles itinerary from Southampton and overall the experience was flawless from embarkation to disembarkation. Embarkation was smooth, the crew were friendly, and the ship ran like a well‑oiled machine. Highlights: - My cabin steward (Primo) deserves a shout‑out — warm, attentive, and even happy to learn new towel animals on request. Small touches like that make a big difference. - Food options were strong outside the main dining room: the International Cafe was decadent and delicious with impeccable service despite the constant flow of customers. Salty Dog Cafe and Alfredo’s Pizzeria were reliable for quick, tasty snacks, especially if you have kids in your party! - The casino is spacious with a solid variety of machines, and I appreciated that the smoking area is completely sealed off, so secondhand smoke doesn’t affect the rest of the ship. - My stateroom, while a bit dated (some wine stains on the carpet and a few scratches on furniture), was perfectly functional. The important things were excellent — North American power plugs, ample storage, good water pressure/temperature, and a TV lineup with great travel features, sitcoms, and live sports. The layout made good use of space, so I felt comfortable throughout the voyage. Constructive feedback: - The one drawback was the main dining room. Compared with other Princess ships I’ve sailed on (Star Princess and Discovery Princess), the menu, service timing, and entrees were below expectations. I found myself opting for the buffet more often than usual.
