I was not expecting a first class resort. This is a ship and an old one at that. There have been obvious restorations to the most visited areas of the ship; the shopping galleria, the hallways, the decks. They simply haven't made it to the rooms yet. The bed in our "first class stateroom" was horribly uncomfortable and they only ...
To say I was underwhelmed would be correct. I went with a large group to spend the night on the Q.M. I am disabled. Yes they had handicap parking and elevators. We had problems checking in, they charged a different price then the contract stated. That took over a hour to straighten out. Then the walk to the room was very difficult. There are no ...

Just be advised...
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 01/25/09
We have stayed at the hotel three times in the past five years. The first time it was great. The last two times were awful. Just awful. Never, ever again. How nice (or horrible) your stay will be, will depend upon two critical factors, of which you have no control. Again, these two factors are critical.
I had a less than positive experience staying on the ship.
Although the hotel is not cheap at all, the room had tiny uncomfortable beds. Since it's a cruise ship, I was assigned a cabin with no windows which I didn't expect at all. Nowhere on my reservation was it mentioned that there’ll be no windows. The pillow case had ...

Rats didn't desert this ship!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/26/08
My friend stayed there for her anniversary in April. She was awakened by a rat scampering across her face. She turned the light on and there it sat on a chair, staring at her. The hotel moved her room and then offered her $40.00 off the bill! No apologies, nothing. Incredible!
The Queen Mary is a beautiful ship to explore and a fun adventure overall. However, it is extremely noisy and the walls are paper thin. There were 2 couples in our party...we were located in different parts of the ship and none of us got any sleep. Also, the rooms were drastically different. Ours could have been any run down Holiday Inn, while ...

Only slightly better than the Poseidan
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/15/08
The good news is that it didn't sink while we were on it. The bad news is that it didn't sink before we got there! The worst part about our 1 night adventure was that our room was located next to a ballroom in which a party went on till way past 2:00 AM. We could have gotten a better nights sleep in a refrigerator carton under the ...
The room is dirty and everything is worn. I didn't even bother to stay there for the night. I actually check out at 10pm and went home.

Tons of Potential, Zero Execution
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/08/06
The ship has the potential for a great vacation experience. Its location is great, near Belmont Shore, Naples and Pine Street, and the facilities are unique, aboard the famous ship.
However, the service was dreadful. They lied to us about our room location. At the time of check-in we noticed a large line outside the ship for a radio station ...
The deluxe stateroom was awesome, especially if you enjoy the history of the period. Beds are a bit skinny & short and the tub...well has to be experienced to believe. It is skinny and has such a sloping bottom that you stand knock-kneed.
Leaning out the porthole to watch the gulls, boats & sunset can't be beat! Check out Sir. ...
