Celebrity Millennium Reviews

Summary:  just returned from Alaskan cruise,weather fantastic ,however the service and entertainment were disappointing and do not reflect Celebrity promise of 5 star, there is a lack of enthusiasm in some staff, evening meal can be a long chore (if you, go ask to be served by Gede the only guy who knows what customer service means) entertainment after main show is dull, if you are looking for night life you will be disappointed. Ship needs a wake up call.

Summary:  Husband and I enjoyed our very first cruise on the Milennium, a wonderful ship but yes needed a little uplift. The whole experience from Hong to Singapore was truly a great experience. The crew were extremely curteous and smiles from everyone, it could not have been more friendlier. Treated like royalty in every corner. House-keeping were truly excellent. The Metropolitan resaurant was exceptional, food, the choice of wines were first class. Last of all, the weather was lovely and hot. Top deck was picturesque, Sapphire seas and so calm. Yes, we have booked another cruise with Celebrity, on the Eclipse around the Caribbean. Wonderful, Thank You all.

Summary:  We sailed from Hong Kong to Singapore for 15 nights over Christmas and new year. It was our first cruise on Celebrity, having sailed with NCL, RCI and Costa before. We were very disappointed with this cruise. The ship itself was fine. Yes it is showing its age a little if you look closely but you could overlook that if the staff were happy and welcoming, but to be honest they appeared more tired and miserable than the ship itself. I greeted a couple of waiting staff in their own language, having heard them speak and they looked through me! The food was excellent but not a great selection of both breads and breakfast cereals, certainly not as good as RCI. The entertainment hadn't a patch on RCI either. The evening shows were excellent, but daytime activities were kept to a minimum and once the show in the theatre was finished in the evenings there wasn't a lot happening. Most of the bars were empty and in fact the poolside bar was closed most nights. There was very little happening around the pool during the day. Now some may argue that surely quiet bars and a quiet pool is good, but you have the choice on most other lines. There will be a couple of bars without music and a quiet pool should you want it but I'd rather be entertained. Celebrity do not charge for towel rental at the pool but to be honest it's worse than those who do, because you have people hogging sun beds with two and three towels and going away for hours. They also provide blankets on deck if it's cold and little extras like moisturiser and cotton wool in the bathroom but in my honest opinion I'd rather take my own and get decent entertainment. This was our first and probably last on Celebrity. If it wasn't for the itinerary it would have made for a bad holiday experience. The ports of call were amazing

Summary:  The ship is now 13yrs old and looking slightly tired in places. Food and entertainnment on board were excellent, although the service was, on occasions, a little slow. Allow at least 2hrs to eat in the main restaurant in the evening! The alternative buffet restaurant did not have a very wide choice of food laid on in the evening. Fine lunchtime though. Cabins were fine and the ship was clean - as expected! Staff are all friendly and aim to please. I thought staff levels were a little low, meaning everyone was very busy. Celebrity are a premium cruise line and there were lots of small things done that do set it apart from Royal Caribbean (sister company). Other passengers advised Millenium was no comparison to the Solstice class Celebrity ships. (As we are on Eclipse in the summer I'm looking forward to that already!). However Millenium was fine, but did not give the 5* Celebrity experience I was expecting from my first Celebrity cruise. The cruise was mainly about the destination - SE Asia - which I can thoroughly recommend.

Summary:  The Millennium is the best ship I have ever been on. The staterooms are great, very comfortable and staff was very helpful. I had quite a few laughs at the pool, very funny entertainement. The night shows are spetacular really enjoyed them. Food was excellent with great service. I recommend to everybody and definitly will return.

Summary:  I took my girl friend on the Celebrity Millennium for her birthday, and she enjoyed every minutes of it. We started out drinking at the Champagne and Martini Bars it was a good atmosphere, quite busy but not too packed. Then we headed to the Rendezvous Lounge and the live music was amazing. She still talks about the amazing time we had onboard of the Celebrity Millennium. We had a few dance lessons and the instructor was very professional and detailed. Also we had a fun time The Bar at the Edge of the Earth, which has various themed party. Like the Mardi Gras style mask.

Summary:  Beautiful Ship, great service and we were treated like royalty. Fabulous food, great entertainment, it was a holiday of a lifetime.
