Firstly, sincere thanks to Bolsover for their usual exceptional service.
First time on Silversea [although having previously completed over 40 cruises] it has taken some time to elicit -why I would choose never to cruise with Silversea again.
Upon reflection I put my inspectorial hat on and realised that the aspect of the cruise that was disappointing and certainly not up to par was quite simply – “The Restaurant”.
It wasn’t just that food was often only warm and often repetitive – the basic problem was the management of “the Restaurant.” There were many good staff there [ Katherine being an outstanding example] but one had the feeling that the service was being run for the amusement of the front of house staff – rather than the comfort and overall culinary experience of the paying passengers! As a paying passenger I shall definitely take my custom to any of the other cruise lines we’ve previously travelled with – all of whom we should be delighted to travel with again – and indeed have already put in place arrangements to do just that !
