zackdog Posted January 4, 2008 #1 Share Posted January 4, 2008 I have noticed this room located on Deck 9. Can anyone tell me what is its purpose and what is available there. I am travelling in the Queens Grill suite in this deck. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhoney Posted January 4, 2008 #2 Share Posted January 4, 2008 The concierge will make restaurant and spa reservations for you, and deal with queries that non-Grills passengers have to take to the Purser's Desk. There is also a member of the tour staff based in the concierge room to take bookings for Grills class passengers. Tea, coffee and biscuits are available in the Concierge Lounge, together with newspapers and magazines. It's not a room where you would want to spend too many hours, though, as it is enclosed and has no windows to look out of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godfreyb Posted January 4, 2008 #3 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Jusr got off the QM2 yesterday. The concierge lounge was very useful. It always has tea and coffee, sandwiches/cookies/cake depending on the time of day. The staff take care of all the nuisance things that you have to do at the pursers or travel office in a much more detailed and interested manner than is normally the case. We had a complaint about a couple of the tours and the travel person took detailed notes and read them back to ascertain that she had taken it down correctly. Addtionally the shopping guide visits at certain hours and my wife found her most useful. At first I thought it would be a dinky little operation but as the days passed I found it more useful as well as saving my legs on this big ship.

Mustangs Posted January 4, 2008 #6 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Can you cash Travellers cheques there? No, all money (cash) transactions are directly with the Purser's office: Deck 2. Also note, Concierge Lounge only opens at 8am. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Not so the concierge cashed $100 bills for us several times so that we may have smaller bills and not have to stand in line for the purser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, our last time with Susan as Concierge, she would go out of her way to provide us with these services. Luck of the draw?!? Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
