philip_eunice1 Posted November 24, 2013 Author #10 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Have been on a few Ncl cruises in a suite and from embarkation to disembarkation you are treated like royalty though some of the RCI ships look amazing and I think I need to try one Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireEater Posted November 24, 2013 #11 Share Posted November 24, 2013 What does a Butler do that a room steward or room service does not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skibyrd Posted November 24, 2013 #12 Share Posted November 24, 2013 What does a Butler do that a room steward or room service does not? Just got back from our first Celebrity cruise in a suite - never thought we would use a butler, but ended up loving it! He did everything the concierge on RCL does - but he is in your room at your call!! Felt WAY more pampered in. celebrity suite than on our Grand Suites on RCL. Just our opinion....

Colorado Babe Posted November 24, 2013 #13 Share Posted November 24, 2013 I also like the suites on Celebrity too. We enjoyed the afternoon tea cart with cappuccinos and canapés. Also enjoyed the back stage pass and all the other perks. Suite life is sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted November 25, 2013 #14 Share Posted November 25, 2013 What does a Butler do that a room steward or room service does not? Ask Patti - they knock on the door even when you have the "Do Not Disturb" sign out.:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruising89143 Posted November 25, 2013 #15 Share Posted November 25, 2013 (edited) When it comes to suites on RCI you book for the extra real estate and not much else. The butler on X is very nice. Also the higher end suites on X come with a nice bar set up. I agree that NCL probably does the best job when it comes to suites but IMHO that's where it stops. Not enough to make me want to book with NCL again. I put them on par with Carnival. One last thing, I think that RCI limits themselves more on suites perks as they usually do not have an issue in getting top dollar for their suites.

scbntraveler Posted November 25, 2013 #17 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Does having a suite give you coupons? I am a Diamond member and should get additional perks through coupons. Regardless of the fact that I have a suite or not. There are some of my family members who have a suite as well. They are traveling RCCL for the first time. I was wondering if they will receive any coupons for things such as laundry, drink discounts, internet package discount and so forth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reedl Posted November 25, 2013 #18 Share Posted November 25, 2013 (edited) After reading that butlers will unpack and pack your luggage, I find that weird. Do I really want someone else going through my clothes? Do I really want someone seeing my wife's sexy lingerie she brought for my enjoyment? Although they probably have seen everything, and really do not care. Edited November 25, 2013 by reedl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those perks come from the coupon books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waterbug123 Posted November 25, 2013 #20 Share Posted November 25, 2013 One last thing, I think that RCI limits themselves more on suites perks as they usually do not have an issue in getting top dollar for their suites. That and the fact that if they added additional perks, like butler service, they'd have a whole bunch of D+ and Pinnacle members that would start whining that they deserve butler service too! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
