Princess Cruises - Ruby Princess Reviews

it was a wonderfully trip my travel advisor indy did a great job for me will use indy indy future

Cruise was great! Smooth all the way. Great weather. Fun entertainment on sea days

Thoroughly enjoyed our cruise from San Francisco to Alaska. Sailing under the Golden Gate Bridge was on our bucket list that was checked off. Glacier Bay was a true highlight. Alaska wilderness was beautiful. The ports of call were fun and interesting. Recommend Skagway’s White Pass & Yukon Railway excursion. The Alaskan cruise was relaxing and filled with natural wonders.

The ship was full of people with Covid. It was never mentioned by the cruise staff. One older lady I met is in the hospital the now. It would have been nice for people to know so they could take precautions such as wearing masks especially if they were immune compromised or elderly. Covid put a damper on the cruise as more people came down with it. It was a somewhat disappointing cruise. Past cruisers who were onboard, that I spoke with, shared my opinion. No longer are mints on the pillows or towel animals on the beds. Those used to be fun. The food wasn’t nearly as good as before. The scrambled eggs in the buffet area were very cold, like they had been in the refrigerator. I told the person near the eggs. He stirred the eggs around in the pot to bring the warm eggs to the top. He gave me more eggs. When I attempted to eat them, they were room temperature. When I tried to make reservations for the non-specialty restaurants, they were completely booked. I ended up using the no reservation lines, which were fine. I don’t like being offered food to pay for in the “free” dining room. I did order cold cereal once in the dining room. The cereal was stale and the non-fat milk was room temperature, not cold. I ended up using room service often which was great for for the most part great. They advertise as speedy service. Once it took a couple of hours for the food to be delivered. I wouldn’t cruise on the Ruby Princess again. My brother and his wife were on the Royal Princess ship to Alaska at the same time I was on my cruise. It was out of Seattle and the same itinerary except for Price Rupert. Their ship sounded much nicer. They didn’t have to go in crowded little rooms for their buffet. I know all of cruise staff work hard to make the cruise great! The one just wasn’t. I usually want to to go on another cruise immediately after I get off the ship; not this time.

We enjoyed our Pacific NW cruise out of San Francisco. 1 star deducted for embarkation process which was disorganized and chaotic.

Great trip even with 1 port removed. These cruises are getting better and better.

It was Awesome and very relaxing and needed. We enjoyed ourselves

great trip for all 10 of us! Shopping a breeze, and memories to share

We kept asking questions but go no answer on dining , the buffet was cold food , the deck of our cabin looked horrible, the carpet in cabin coming apart, I have been on 5 other cruises and this one was the worst

Boat was clean and maintained. Food was varied but lacking seasoning and often temp was not hot for hot dishes. Activities attended were fun.

the food left much to be desired

No complaints

Very wonderful cruise Very kind staff .

Porters were not present when we boarded. Staff present seemed confused about how to enter terminal. Most food on Lido deck was inedible. Average food in main dining room and in steakhouse. Sabatini's was excellent! Service was below average. We did not always receive food we had ordered. Dining room service was exceptionally slow. Ship was crowded and very noisy (our stateroom was quite, however). Two shore excursions canceled because of weather. BOSS underwater scooter excursion was amazing! I doubt that we will travel on Princess again.
