Ship Information
Cruise Overview
Cunard Queen Victoria was launched in 2007 by the Duchess of Cornwall as a Vista Class ship and led the way as the blueprint for her sister ships Queen Elizabeth and Queen Anne. This lovely ship incorporated the successful elements made popular on the flagship Queen Mary 2 together with some new innovations. The Queens Ballroom is the central hub of the ship for big band dancing, cocktail parties and afternoon tea; and the popular Commodore Club on Deck 10 appears much bigger for fantastic views with the best cocktails at sea. Cunard Queen Victoria was the first ship ever to feature private boxes in the theatre; and has the interactive Cunardia Museum display. In May 2017 the ship underwent a major refit to include a new Britannia Club dining room and an extended aft pool deck which squared off the back of the ship adding 30-new staterooms.Cabin Details
The luxuriously appointed staterooms have private en-suite facilities, air conditioning, flat-screen cable TV's with free in-room movies, vanity area, hair dryer, telephone, refrigerator with minibar and free room service.Dining Details
The twin-level Britannia restaurant caters for the majority of guests on board with set dining times and tables allocated for dinner in the evenings. For breakfast and lunch - the Maitre D will allocate whatever tables are available at whichever time you choose to dine. The Britannia Club restaurant caters for guests in the highest-grade balcony staterooms with an anytime dining arrangement in the evenings.
