Sailing From New York To Montreal Aboard The Unabashedly Indulgent Crystal Symphony Reveals Why The Line Regularly Tops The Luxury List.
Crystal Symphony and her sister Crystal Serenity might not be the youngest ships in the rarefied world of true luxury cruising, but every year they win prestigious awards and are constantly in demand. Crystal Cruises spends millions of dollars on remodelling the classically elegant ships every few years and their crew-to-guest ratio is one of the highest in the business – which translates to exceptionally attentive service.
Symphony and Serenity are large by luxury-cruise standards, accommodating up to 848 and 980 guests respectively, and incredibly spacious – our Seabreeze Penthouse with verandah on Crystal Symphony’s deck nine is an ample 34 square metres, while the top-of-the-range Crystal Penthouse verandah suite sprawls majestically over 91 square metres on deck 10.
Shortly after my cruise companion and I embark in New York, our butler, Dario, shows us around the penthouse, our stately home for the next 10 days. He pours Champagne (French, of course) and assures us that the supply will be replenished as often as required. The fridge is fully stocked, and Dario says he will deliver canapés each afternoon and that he can organise dinner reservations at the three specialty restaurants (complimentary for Penthouse guests).
