The ship is beautiful the atrium and staircase is stunning. The food was plentiful fresh and always well presented in the the horizon buffet. The main dining room service was excellent and vast range of dishes for all every night. With Princess favourite available as standard 3 starters and mains. The ship was very clean and staff always greeted us with a smile. I have been on 15 cruises ( 5 different lines) and the Royal Princess ship is one of my favourites.
