ConnCruise Posted October 1, 2017 #1 Share Posted October 1, 2017 We’re on the Z for the November 5 cruise and have just upgraded to a Signature Suite. Understand most of the benefits of this upgrade but was curious about the Concierge service offered with the suite. We’ve never used this on HA but I think we have had this service on either NCL and/or Celebrity and had a less than optimum impression. (For example no one ever answered the Concierge line) So any info/impressions/opinions would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is telephone concierge service for some other suites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The line is answered but it is not necessarily the concierge in the Neptune Lounge - often the Front Desk staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Neptne Lounge concierges rotate in from front office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ConnCruise Posted October 1, 2017 Author #5 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Yes, we understand that it is telephone based concierge service, but what are the benifits of this feature? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dag144 Posted October 1, 2017 #7 Share Posted October 1, 2017 In my experience there are no benefits attached to this service that are not available to all passengers regardless of their cabins. You get the same attention that an inside cabin occupant gets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuthC Posted October 1, 2017 #8 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Yes, we understand that it is telephone based concierge service, but what are the benifits of this feature? Your original post was very clear that the Neptune Suites have nothing to do with your question. No need to bring that up. Your telephone concierge can help arrange things to eat, drinks, and extra glassware for gatherings in your suite. Clean-up, too! :D I have done that, and it worked nicely. You can call to have them make reservations/appointments for such things as alternate dining, salon & spa, the kinds of things a telephone call can accomplish. Personally, I just as soon make my own appointments, as that way I can consult about a second choice, if the first isn't available. There are probably other things they can do, too, but I never had a need so didn't try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
