What Travelers Say About Queen Victoria
Reviews of the ship itself — the same for every Queen Victoria sailing. Based on 2,000 discussions.
Queen Victoria is Cunard's mid-size liner of tradition - a 2007-built ship that trades waterslides for chandeliers, marble, dark wood, and a genuinely British ocean-going atmosphere. After a 2017 lengthening that added an aft section and raised the stateroom count, she feels calmer and more grown-up than contemporary ships, with a formal-leaning, refined vibe built on gala evenings, ballroom dancing, afternoon tea, and enrichment.
What People Love
- Classic British ocean-liner atmosphere with dark wood, marble, chandeliers, and vintage Cunard ship art
- Daily white-gloved afternoon tea with scones and clotted cream in the Queens Room - a signature ritual
- Queens Room ballroom with a live orchestra and formal dancing nearly every night
Common Complaints
- Aging 2007 hull, with reviewers citing visible exterior rust and a worn look next to newer fleetmates
- Recurring maintenance complaints, including reports of water dripping in public areas
- Britannia main dining and the buffet are rated good but not great for the price
