Best dining room on Emerald Princess

By SSAtlantic , September 1, 2023 in Princess Cruises

Recommended Posts

250+ Club

We have only done 1 Princess cruise since the start of DMW. That was in Reserve Class which is unavailable for an upcoming cruise. What is the best dining room on the Emerald for a private table for 2 with same wait staff?

"Best" is certainly a very subjective term.  It depends on what you are considering in your criteria.  The menus are the same in all *main* dining rooms.  And...you have the ability to arrange for the same table/wait staff at any MDR...so, not sure how to give you an answer that means anything.  Basically, only the decor will be different.

Have you tried making reservations yet? If you are able to book a private table for 2 on every evening in one of the dining rooms, that would be a good start. Once onboard you can ask the hostess or dining room manager if it’s possible to be seated with the same wait staff every night.

This was not true recently.  On my sailing on the Emerald in July, the DR manager in DaVinci said I could only have the same table and staff if I asked in Botticelli.

Did you get same table every night in Botticelli if your reservation was in DaVinci?

Just now, Solara said: Did you get same table every night in Botticelli if your reservation was in DaVinci?

No, I decided just to come to my reservation in DaVinci and roll the dice with staff.

And how did that work out?

It was fine.  Some days service was slower, but overall, it was pretty good.  Probably depended on how much people (including us, because it varied) were ordering?

Thanks

How were the lines each night to get your table assignment.  On the Caribbean Princess, the line was a 20 minute wait each night...

And that is fine IMO.  You ask anywhere and if they can give what you want in another one, the TD experience has been met, IMO. 

22 hours ago, Solara said: Did you get same table every night in Botticelli if your reservation was in DaVinci?

It would be changed in the System and Da Vinci res should be removed from DMW app if the change was made.

I presume you are not writing about having the same table and waiters each night.  In this case, you just walk to table and do not wait in line.

2 hours ago, mphouston said: How were the lines each night to get your table assignment.  On the Caribbean Princess, the line was a 20 minute wait each night... 

We were just on the Caribbean Princess and almost never waited. There were a couple of evenings when the people at our requested table were later than normal finishing dinner but for the most part there were no lines in the Palm dining room. I think the location is inconvenient but it may be less busy

Loved all three MDR. The menus are the same but it was nice to do different dining rooms as we got to meet lots of different waiters and waitresses who are all absolutely lovely.

Princess Cruises launches new routes out of Boston

The well-appointed Emerald Princess is now sailing around New England, Canada and beyond.

Cheryl Fenton

Boston has a new option for cruise vacations with itineraries to visit our northern neighbors during  prime leaf-peeping season.  Princess Cruises has sailed into town for its maiden Boston season, beginning July 14, with exciting east coast excursions planned through early October around New England, Canada and Greenland.

In the wake of introducing a  Northern Lights  voyage to west coast travelers , the iconic cruise company is now sailing out of Flynn Cruiseport Boston with the  Emerald Princess . The 3,080-guest cruise ship  offers well-appointed staterooms, world-class dining voted one of the best choices for food lovers by Food & Wine magazine , award-winning casinos and entertainment, luxurious spas and tons of on-board activities and experiences.

Emerald Princess Cruise mini suite

Ten available routes from Boston range in length from seven to 17 days. Hop aboard to enjoy all that scenic New England and Canada have to offer—from colonial history to striking lighthouses and quaint seaside villages ready to serve you some fresh seafood. 

In August, you can knock a visit to  the world's largest island off your bucket list with three port stops in Greenland to see its stunning landscapes and magnificent fjords. As fall creeps in, Emerald Princess also has vantage points on the most glorious foliage as it sails along forested areas in the northeast, rich in the brilliant shades of autumn red, orange and gold.  

Boston-based Emerald Princess cruises sailing this summer and fall include:

Canada and New England—seven days : Roundtrip from Boston visiting Halifax, Sydney (Cape Breton Island), Charlottetown (Prince Edward Island) and Portland or Bar Harbor. Cruises depart July 14, 21, 28; August 4, 2024.

Classic Canada and New England—10 days : Departing from Boston to Québec with stops in Portland, Saint John (for the Bay of Fundy), Halifax, Sydney (Cape Breton Island), Charlottetown (Prince Edward Island) and Saguenay. Cruises depart August 28; September 17; October 7, 2024. Two cruises sail the opposite itinerary from Québec to Boston on September 7 and 27, 2024.

Greenland and Canada—17 days : Roundtrip from Boston visiting three ports in Greenland—Nuuk, Qaqortoq and Nanortalik—plus Sydney (Cape Breton Island), Corner Brook, St. Anthony (Newfoundland) and St. John's (Newfoundland). Cruise departs August 11, 2024.

Princess cruises reveals epic 2026 alaska season.

Newest Ship - Star Princess - 1 of 8 Ships Headlining 2026 Alaska Season

FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla. , July 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Princess Cruises, the leading cruise line in Alaska , today unveiled its biggest-ever Alaska season for 2026, highlighted by the debut of the newest ship in its fleet, Star Princess. The exciting, expanded Alaska program for 2026 features eight ships, 180 departures, and 19 destinations, providing travelers with an unparalleled selection of Alaska adventures by sea, or by both land and sea.

For the first time, guests will have the opportunity to explore Alaska aboard a Sphere Class ship as Star Princess sails her first summer season in the Great Land, offering unparalleled views of glaciers and wildlife. As the second ship in the Sphere Class following Sun Princess, Star Princess launches in fall 2025 and promises an elevated cruising experience. A true engineering marvel and a global citizen, this ship features innovative architectural spectacles like The Dome, the industry's first geodesic structure, and The Sphere, a suspended glass Piazza. Additionally, it is celebrated, along with sister ship Sun Princess, as the greatest foodie destination at sea, promising to tantalize taste buds with world-class culinary offerings.

Bookings open August 1 with the "Better Than Best Price Guarantee" offering the best rates and 120% of the price difference as onboard credit if a lower rate is found before final payment. This promotion ends September 2, 2024 with full details here .

"2026 will reinforce Princess' leadership in Alaska vacations. The deployment of the magnificent Star Princess to Alaska for the first time will offer guests unprecedented views, luxurious accommodations, and the finest food, beverages and entertainment ever seen in the Great Land. Our guests will experience Alaska like never before aboard our innovative Sphere Class ship," said John Padgett , Princess Cruises president. "Whether you're a first-time cruiser or a seasoned traveler, Princess is the ultimate choice for luxury and adventure, with awe-inspiring glaciers, unforgettable wildlife encounters, and the freshest seafood imaginable."

Highlights for Alaska in 2026 include:

Eight Ships Sailing Alaska in 2026

For 2026, guests can choose from 180 departures from five convenient ports aboard eight incredible ships, including the new Star Princess. Options include:

Voyage of the Glaciers: Discovery Princess, Grand Princess, Coral Princess, and Island Princess will offer seven-day journeys to experience the breathtaking views of two Alaska glaciers—and Princess has more visits to Glacier Bay National Park than any other cruise line. Can't get enough? These itineraries are combinable for adventure-seekers, nature enjoyers and Alaska lovers to indulge in a 14-day Voyage of the Glaciers Grand Adventure.

Inside Passage: Guests can enjoy seven- to 20-day cruises and up to four glacier-viewing experiences when they sail the Inside Passage and visit the highest-rated Alaska destinations and lesser-known gems from convenient homeports including weekend departures from Seattle ( Royal Princess and Star Princess ), San Francisco ( Ruby Princess ), Vancouver, B.C. ( Emerald Princess ), and Los Angeles ( Emerald Princess).

Longer Sailings:  Guests who want to spend more time with Princess this Alaska season can opt for a 20-day Ultimate Alaska Solstice on Ruby Princess sailing roundtrip from San Francisco , and a 16-day Inside Passage on Emerald Princess roundtrip from Los Angeles .

Adventures Ashore

Princess gives guests the chance to expand their cruise experience with exciting and authentic shore excursions at their ports of call. From "Cook My Catch" fishing for dinner, flying on a helicopter through mountainous views, watching breaching whales, and more, guests have a plethora of exciting excursions to choose from.

Award-Winning, Onboard Activities with "North to Alaska with Princess" Program

The award-winning "North to Alaska with Princess" program enriches each Alaska cruise with cultural and educational activities, including naturalist talks, a planetarium Northern Lights experience, and a deliciously fresh local Alaska seafood menu. In addition, the popular Junior Ranger program for young cruisers, ensures guests of all ages enjoy their Alaska cruise as they explore the Great Land's rich history.

Cruisetours – Cruise, Rail and Lodge in Interior of Alaska

Combining a cruise with a land tour is a great way to maximize an Alaska vacation, including the chance to visit Denali National Park and beyond. The 2026 season includes more than 20 cruisetour options.

One highlight is the 15-night National Parks Tour, perfect for those who want to seamlessly get their National Parks Passport stamped. Guests will adventure to five of Alaska's most breathtaking parks including Glacier Bay, Denali, Wrangell-St. Elias, Kenai Fjords National Park, and Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park in Skagway . This experience combines a seven-day cruise, scenic rail travel, with eight nights ashore, including stays at four Princess-owned wilderness lodges.
