bandit and babycakes Posted May 31, 2011 #1 Share Posted May 31, 2011 We are wondering how many people have booked their post cruise stay thru the cruise line and which cruise line was it. How was your experience? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6rugrats Posted May 31, 2011 #2 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Not sure why you have posted this on the Canada boards. Never; it's horribly expensive. IMO, you can do much better just booking yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thoth Posted June 2, 2011 #3 Share Posted June 2, 2011 For pre-cruise I used HAL's Montreal hotel. The food was expensive, but there was fast food nearby. All things considered, I was pleased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traveling Library Posted June 2, 2011 #4 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Once with RCCL on a post-cruise in London. Cruise package was the least expensive option we could find. Hotel was near the Tate Modern. Can't remember the name but is was not a tourist hotel and bit off the beaten track. It was fun to explore a that part of London.

sapper1 Posted June 3, 2011 #5 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Booking through the cruiseline is very expensive but we like to use HAL's transfers from airport to hotel and from hotel to ship in areas we are not sure of. You can only do that if you book your hotel through the cruiseline. If we are familiar with an area, say like Fort Lauderdale, we do it on our own but in NYC and Venice, we bit the bullet and went for the cruiseline's offer. We found San Diego very easy to do on our own, following wonderful advice given here on CC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bandit and babycakes Posted June 3, 2011 Author #6 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Thanks for all replys we did book thru the cruise line as we feel the deal was pretty good. Pan Pacific for $824 3 nights refundable. All cheaper rates at hotel were non-refundable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maryann ns Posted June 3, 2011 #7 Share Posted June 3, 2011 A little research will save a lot of money and you can get the stay that you want. We have done pre or post cruise stays in Rome, Athens, Hong Kong and Shanghai on our own and had a wonderful time. If you can't get the information you need here, go to tripadvisor.

FPJC03 Posted June 5, 2011 #8 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Booked one nite at Pan Pacific in early August for post-cruise off the Diamond. Got a great deal on Travelzoo.com. For $200/nite, got a corner room and breakfast for 2. They do have specials and you can check on price reductions every week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaingang446 Posted June 8, 2011 #9 Share Posted June 8, 2011 @FPJC03, Hi was I wondering if the Majesty ship you listed was the one that left Miami 5/31-6/4/04, the reason I ask is because I started a thread in the main section basically listing a reward if anyone had the cruise-in-review DVD from that ship, I lost mine and was hoping maybe someone on here was on that same ship and might have a copy. Let me know, a longshot but still worth a shot! Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
