wesport Posted February 22, 2023 #1 Share Posted February 22, 2023 Does Princess do laundry by the bag, and if they do , how much is it per bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KLM3164 Posted February 22, 2023 #2 Share Posted February 22, 2023 (edited) Princess doesn’t do laundry by the bag. It’s priced per piece and depends on what the item is. Here is the price list from our cruise on the Royal earlier this month. Edited February 22, 2023 by KLM3164 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KLM3164 Posted February 22, 2023 #3 Share Posted February 22, 2023 Also if you are in a full suite or have Elite status then your laundry is complimentary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious about this. I don't put my clothes in the dryer, so are you able to specify you just want them washed and not dried in the dryer?

I have never heard of this option. You will be better off using one of the laundry rooms and hang drying in your cabin. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I need to do laundry on a cruise I do it myself as they wash and dry things with very hot water and very high heat. I don’t want all our clothes to shrink so I find it best if I do it myself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is, but Princess is also the only one of the 3 that has self-service laundry on every passenger deck of every ship. Also, Princess offers free laundry for eiltes and suites, but HAL does not.

The combination of shrinking clothes and endless eating are never good. LOL 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Times Prince Posted February 24, 2023 #12 Share Posted February 24, 2023 (edited) We last sailed pre-Covid, but at that time the longer (greater than 7 days) cruises we took typically had a special offer once in the cruise for "all you can fit in a bag for $xx.xx". They might not still offer this. Edited February 24, 2023 by Times Prince correction of error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I remember correctly, HAL excludes a number of types of clothing from that bag special and it is only wash and fold, no ironing/pressing of the items.

I had not considered the possibility that the ships laundry was also a dry cleaner. The prices aren’t that bad. Maybe I should bring a loaf from home.

satxdiver Posted February 24, 2023 #19 Share Posted February 24, 2023 I did a ship tour several years ago and one of the places we visited was the laundry. They putt all the pax clothes to be washed in a big washer (much bigger than at home) and then into a huge dryer. One size fits all so to speak. It was a very impressive tour. The ships laundry (table clothes, sheets, etc) are cleaned in the same big room but different machines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the bottom of the order tag it states the cleaning process “uses a non-toxic sustainable wet solvent” so it’s not dry cleaning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
