Dry cleaning services

[Cbanach2]

Hey guys,

 

So I'm leaving march 5 on my cruise. We obviously have 2 formal nights. With traveling and having dress shirts and a jacket. Does anyone know how much it cost for them to iron the shirts? Or is it better to rent the suits ?

Each deck (with few exceptions) has a laundry room with irons. Use of irons is free.

You can iron the shirts yourself for free in the laundry room. Dry cleaning is around $4 per shirt. Abiut $14 for a two piece suit. Pressing only about half that.

I'm on deck 9, is there a laundry room on that deck that you know of?

I would say yes. Just check the deck plans for your ship on the Princess web site and look for the laundry room locations.

Alright, now if I was to go with renting the suits through the cruise line would I have to rent them in advance or can I rent them when I get there?

Rent them ahead of time.

Anytime now. The cloths will (should) be in your cabin when you get there. Try them on right away so if something does not fit properly the steward can get them squared away. Princess does not require men to wear tuxedos, if you have a suit or dinner jacket that would suffice. We have done tuxedo rental and the process is quite reliable. We are currently doing dinner jacket or suit depending on the itinerary.

I suggest if you are going to do any of your own ironing, the best time to do it is on embarkation day as no one (except us!!) is in the laundry and it's usually nice and cool in there with no machines running.

 

Princess has laundry rooms on most every deck (except lido) on every ship. Some ships alternate forward/aft on every other deck with the location of the laundry room.

Princess does not offer dry cleaning from their laundry service.

Though no dry cleaning of yesteryear, Princess does offer an environmentally friendly cleaning service that is very good. My black silk pants for formal night come back perfect every time.

No dry cleaning.

No dry cleaning.

 

They call it just "cleaning" as they do not use the chemicals that were used in the past for "dry cleaning."
