I've been on the Grandeur, in 2004 or 2005. It was fine. Also been on the Voyageur, the Sovereign, the Majesty, the Enchantment, the Navigator, the Radiance, and the Adventure.

So, unlike googling reviews, I can speak from experience. The food, service, and basic amenities across the RCCL fleet, from the old ships (Sovereign, Majesty) to their newer ships (Adventure, Navigator) are pretty consistent. Consistent for the last 7-8 years. In some cases too consistent (same meals/menus over the last couple of years).

There isn't a single ship in the RCCL fleet i wouldn't hesitate to book. Unlike Carnival and their ancient, POS Holiday class ships.

Back on topic: I still think Carnival did not do the right thing with their treatment of their guests on the broken down Holiday.
