Enjoyable but lacked atmosphere
Linda Milson | July 16, 2022 | Royal Caribbean International | Anthem of the Seas
Lovely ship
Great food
Friendly crew
Ship biased towards Americans even though majority of cruisers were British! Cover charge for specialty restaurants ridiculous so never used them. Most venues like bars were very dark and lacked atmosphere. Service overall was slow.
Entertainment team spoke reasonable English but could not read the written word which got very frustrating when doing quizzes etc
Pronunciation was so poor we had to ask to see the questions ourselves!!!
I am sure Covid is responsible for the second rate crew and staff shortage.
I have cruised on many Royal Caribbean ships and love them but if Anthem of Seas is only ship sailing out of Southampton then this could have been my last cruise with them-I hope not
