EmmasNana Posted September 20, 2014 #1 Share Posted September 20, 2014 So if you have room service or bring food back to your cabin, what do you do with the dirty dishes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken at the beach Posted September 20, 2014 #2 Share Posted September 20, 2014 We keep ours in the room for the cabin steward to remove but it seems most put them in the hallway as I constantly see a lot of dirty dishes lining the hallway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmmasNana Posted September 20, 2014 Author #3 Share Posted September 20, 2014 (edited) I ask because this my first Royal cruise last month I did not see any dishes in the hallways and our steward would never take them unless I left a note. This was a Med cruise, so I don't know if that makes a difference. Edited September 20, 2014 by EmmasNana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homeschoolmama Posted September 20, 2014 #4 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Room attendants should always take dirty dishes from the room. You could call room service and ask them to remove them also. Sent from my SCH-I915 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beckinoz Posted September 21, 2014 #7 Share Posted September 21, 2014 We always move them down the hall to someone elses' room! :D Someone was leaving their dirty dishes outside ours a few times on my last trip. My mother was not happy lol! I couldn't care less unless they are right in front of my door :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beckinoz Posted September 21, 2014 #8 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Actually, maybe RCCL should have a small sign in the room suggesting where dirty dishes should be left? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BND Posted September 21, 2014 #9 Share Posted September 21, 2014 We leave them in the room. The steward will remove them. Putting them in the hall means people have to walk around them for up to several hours depending on when they're put out due to steward's breaks. I don't think room service will come pick them up. It's something the steward does during their normal cleaning time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merion_Mom Posted September 21, 2014 #10 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Actually, maybe RCCL should have a small sign in the room suggesting where dirty dishes should be left? Next time you get room service, look at the tray on which they bring it. Printed RIGHT ON THE TRAY it says: Please call Room Service when you are finished so that we can pick up your dirty dishes.

I only ordered it once but I must of overlooked it (we did leave a plate on the tray and ate it from there). I actually didn't mean to reply to just you; your sentence just seemed quotable. ;) But yes, the answer to "What do I do with my dishes?" is: Call Room Service and they will send someone to get them. That means that you can put them out in the hall, knowing that RS is on its way. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cb at sea Posted September 21, 2014 #15 Share Posted September 21, 2014 In the room....don't put them in the hallway...it's a tripping hazard! Your cabin attendant will remove them...if they don't, call housekeeping! It will be done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare RCCL Fan Posted September 21, 2014 #19 Share Posted September 21, 2014 It's so funny, I once opened my door to find a guy putting his dirtydishes outside my door.

(this is not a word-for-word quote) ^^^^^^^ THIS^^^^^^^^:D There is a note that says that exact thing.
