Suite Class
More space. More comfort. A more considered way to cruise.
A suite offers far more than additional space.
Depending on the cruise line, it can include enhanced service, priority embarkation, exclusive dining, private lounges and thoughtful touches that make your time onboard feel more relaxed from the moment you arrive.
Every cruise line approaches suite experiences differently. Some focus on traditional elegance and personalised service, while others prioritise comfort, convenience or additional onboard benefits.
Understanding those differences is key to choosing the suite that feels right for you.
Cunard Grills
Timeless and traditional elegance.
For guests who appreciate traditional cruising, few suite experiences have quite the same character as Cunard's Grills.
Princess Grill and Queens Grill provide a more private experience within the wider Cunard voyage, with dedicated restaurants, spacious accommodation and enhanced service.
Queens Grill takes the experience further, with larger suites, butler service and a more personalised level of attention.
- ✓Exclusive Grills restaurants, lounge and sundeck
- ✓Spacious suite accommodation
- ✓Enhanced service
- ✓Priority embarkation and disembarkation
- ✓Butler service in Queens Grill
Best suited to
Guests who value classic elegance, attentive service and the ceremony and tradition associated with Cunard.
Worth knowing
Princess Grill and Queens Grill are different experiences, so choosing between them is about more than simply selecting a larger suite.
Holland America Line
Classic cruising with a destination-focused approach.
Holland America offers a more relaxed interpretation of premium cruising, combining traditional touches with thoughtfully designed ships and an emphasis on the destinations themselves.
Its suite accommodation provides additional space and comfort, alongside enhanced amenities and selected priority benefits.
For guests who want a quieter, more understated experience rather than a highly theatrical luxury environment, Holland America can be an appealing choice.
- ✓Spacious suite accommodation
- ✓Club Orange dining and perks
- ✓Priority services
- ✓Access to exclusive suite areas (where available)
Best suited to
Guests who appreciate relaxed, classic cruising and want additional comfort without moving too far from the character of the wider Holland America experience.
Worth knowing
Suite benefits and facilities vary between ships and categories, making the individual ship and itinerary important when comparing options.
Princess Cruises
Relaxed cruising with additional space and comfort.
Princess offers a range of suite options designed to enhance the onboard experience through larger accommodation, priority services and additional benefits.
For guests who enjoy the relaxed atmosphere Princess is known for, a suite provides extra comfort without changing the character of the voyage.
Selected newer ships, including Sun Princess and Star Princess, also feature The Sanctuary Collection, offering a more exclusive ship-within-a-ship experience.
- ✓Spacious accommodation
- ✓Enhanced suite benefits
- ✓Priority services
- ✓Additional onboard privileges
- ✓Reserve Collection dining
Best suited to
Couples, families and guests who want greater space and additional benefits while retaining the relaxed, sociable character of Princess.
Worth knowing
Princess offers a wide range of suite categories, so understanding exactly what is included with each category is important when comparing value.
Virgin Voyages
Contemporary suites with a very different approach to cruising.
Virgin Voyages takes a deliberately unconventional approach to cruising, and its suites reflect the same philosophy. Known as RockStar Quarters, Virgin's suites combine contemporary design with generous space, thoughtful details and a more relaxed approach to service.
From stylish Mega RockStar Quarters with outdoor hammocks and large terraces to more intimate suite options, the accommodation feels distinctly different from the traditional cruise suite.
The wider Virgin experience is equally important. Adults-only cruising, more than 20 eateries included in the fare and a lively, contemporary atmosphere make Virgin particularly appealing to guests who want something sophisticated without the formality of traditional luxury cruising.
- ✓Exclusive RockStar Quarters Lounge
- ✓Priority boarding and disembarkation
- ✓Premium Wi-Fi included
- ✓Adults-only cruising
- ✓More than 20 eateries included in the fare
Best suited to
Guests who want a stylish suite, an adults-only atmosphere and a more relaxed, contemporary approach to cruising.
Worth knowing
Virgin's suite experience is closely connected to the personality of the ship. It is less about traditional formality and more about design, service and the freedom to enjoy the ship in your own way.
Finding the right suite experience
Choosing a suite is about more than selecting the largest accommodation.
The right choice depends on the details that matter most to you.
Perhaps it's dedicated dining, additional privacy, personalised service or simply having more space to relax.
Ocean Signature helps you compare the different suite experiences available across each cruise line, so you can choose the accommodation that best matches the way you want to travel.
