Jade13 Posted July 26, 2013 #26 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Just me, so I paid the double price. I'm thinking I might make a lot of new friends with this;). I certainly don't need all that room but it will be nice just the same. I guess you may be throwing a party! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George C Posted July 26, 2013 #27 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Congrats, we were offered upsell to Penthouse once and took upsell to a SA instead, if it happens again I will book it if it is a simi-reasonable price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scopewest Posted July 26, 2013 #28 Share Posted July 26, 2013 The one time we sailed in the PH was not to be forgotten. We had anytime dining and stood in the no reservations line. We got to the counter and we asked for a table for two. The guy looked at us with an expression that said "you and everyone else, good luck with that" and asked for our cabin number. When I told him, he literally jumped to attention, snapped his fingers at a waiter, and directed the waiter to take us upstairs (into fixed dining) to a table for two where we were informed it was ours for the entire cruise. Since we usually ate at the fixed times anyway, we just stayed at that table. Enjoy that PH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sapper1 Posted July 26, 2013 #29 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Fabulous! Now you can do hydro therapy on your deck anytime. (There is a jacuzzi on the deck, right?) what a way to rehab. :) Sounds like a tax write off to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CowPrincess Posted July 26, 2013 #33 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Wow, wow, wow! Lorekauf I am thrilled for you :D How cool that you got to grab a last minute booking, and then you got these great upsells! I'll be interested in hearing if you get a special escort onto the ship, seeing as you are in the Penthouse (yup that sounds MUCH better than Pinnacle Suite :D ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topsham Posted July 26, 2013 #34 Share Posted July 26, 2013 All of the penthouses are names after famous Dutch artists, explorers etc.... Van Gogh, Vermeer, Stuvyssant etc. PH is delinitely better than Pinnacel Suite! Have fun! Stephen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watson's aunt Posted July 26, 2013 #39 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Congratulations so happy for you. Can I borrow your upgrade fairy? What did you promise her. I hope you have a wonderful cruise. Don't think much work will be done. We will expect reports daily. Mary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sail7seas Posted July 26, 2013 #46 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Yes, Lorekauf, You should expect an escort to your Penthouse.....(I also like the sound of that better than Pinnacle Suite. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruz chic Posted July 26, 2013 Author #48 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Yes, Lorekauf, You should expect an escort to your Penthouse.....(I also like the sound of that better than Pinnacle Suite. :) Good to hear both you and Kazu are saying the same thing. I'm worried about getting lost in that cabin;). It's almost the same size as my condo. Now if someone could escort me front the airport to the hotel I'd be really happy. HAL is supposed to meet me there since I booked with them but my flight is early and I'm not fond of that airport. I want to do some power shopping that day so my knee better be healed by then.

sail7seas Posted July 26, 2013 #49 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Depending upon the circumstances and what is going on that day during embarkation and what time you arrive etc (as well as other Pinnacle Suite guests), you could be escorted by Hotel Director, Concierge, and most anyone in between. :) Hope you get to do your shopping........ You going to Galleria? :) Fun. I like it there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
