exlondoner Posted March 14, 2022 #26 Share Posted March 14, 2022 I'm not sure the way this is worded implies each. I've certainly never had two bottles of wine each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Victoria2 Posted March 14, 2022 #27 Share Posted March 14, 2022 2023 brochure has this to say Enjoy a complimentary in-suite bar (stocked with two bottles of wine or spirits of your choice, and soft drinks) so I imagine it's still the same as Big mac quoted.

When the FAQs are inaccurate or at best ambiguous over a factual matter like that, you can understand why people think it might be fine to ignore the dress code. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably the usual 'Cunard's right hand doesn't know what its left hand has said [or written]. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mini-bar is stocked with two bottles of 750ml wine or 1 bottle of spirit of your choice from a selection advised by your butler/steward. A variety of mixers and soft drinks* will also be provided. *Substitutions can be made, however they may incur an additional charge. All drinks are subject to availability. Notice reference to 1 bottle of spirit in this extract from FAQs. Is this happening? On a QM2 2-nighter last month my partner and I were offered a single bottle of spirits, or two bottles of wine. I assumed it was due to the shorter itinerary, but maybe it’s standard now? (We chose the wine). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our butler provided lovely hot and cold canapés each evening we entertained in the suite as well as food from QG restaurant menu. Also remember there is a pillow menu. This list is nothing like the one we received on QE in our Q6 suite last November. The list was about 6in x 4 in and had nothing like the choice that is on this one and we also did not receive a pillow menu either. If it was like that I would have filled it in and left if for the butler, as the choice was limited and no mention of brandy I waited until we spoke to him and I asked for a Courvoisier or Martell and he said it was not available so I asked for a Johnnie Walker because no Glenfiddich either and he bought a Famous Grouse and for the wife a Smirnoff Red again as there was no Grey Goose on the list.

When I saw they had a "pillow concierge menu" I thought: "It's nice they give you choice of concierges, but why put it on a pillow?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

majortom10 Posted March 14, 2022 #37 Share Posted March 14, 2022 I think we honestly just got a very poor butler. Like I said he didnt even appear and introduce himself until we had been in our suite for 2-3hrs after embarkation and the cabin steward came within minutes of our arrival and said butler would be along shortly. He came again about 1 hr later and asked again whether the butler had been and when I finished the whisky by about 9nts into our cruise it was never replaced. Unfortunately for Cunard us having a poor butler and none of the services that were available we will never book a QG again and be happy to cruise in PG.
