Iron and ironing board in suites?

[Harry Peterson]

Anyone know if they're still provided in suites?  I seem to recall the butler bringing one, but I think he had to 'borrow' it.

Doesn't the butler do the ironing?lol.

Probably, provided you ask them to.

They may also squeeze toothpaste onto your toothbrush whilst you are at dinner, for ease of brushing when you return.. 😀

I'm assuming then that the answer is that there's no iron in the cabins/suites.

Last time I was in one, October last year on Britannia, there wasn't.

I won't ask what he does with the toilet paper.Seriously though, it's probably a fire precaution.It's all down to fighting over one in the laundrette,I guess.

There used to be an iron and ironing board in suites and mini suites but a while ago now they were removed as a fire risk.  I don't know if the Butler in a Suite would provide you with one or not.  You can but ask - they don't do the ironing!

Thanks. I can recall having one, but wasn’t sure whether we’d asked the butler to find it. Wouldn’t dream of asking him to do the ironing though. To be honest we make very little use of him - it’s the other things that keep us going back to suites, notably the space, the position and breakfast in the Epicurean.

We haven’t had an iron in any of the suites we have had in recent years (Britannia, Ventura, Arcadia). I recall being told that they were removed as a fire risk. Don’t know about the laundrette as I’ve never set foot in one 😂
