Accommodation

Grand Princess Cruise Ship

Grand Princess was recently refitted in 2019. Features include a completely new Piazza atrium, new eateries (Alfredo’s Pizzeria and the Crown Grill), and the line’s first specialty tea lounge called Leaves. Also added are seven new window suites; remodeled casino, boutiques, and art gallery; enhancements to the Horizon Court, Lotus Spa, and wedding chapel; and the addition of Crooner’s Martini Lounge and a new nightclub, One5.

Wheelchair - Accessible: For Guests with Limited Mobility

Princess offers a selection of staterooms that provide full wheelchair-turning space. In addition, these staterooms include a roll-in shower equipped with grab bars and a fold-down bench seat, an easy-access closet, and an accessible writing desk.

Interior Cabin: Our Most Affordable Option

These staterooms are the perfect place to recharge your batteries. Our most affordable option features two twin beds or a queen-size bed. Other amenities include a refrigerator, hair dryer, TV, closet, and bathroom with shower.

Oceanview Cabin: A Room with a View

Enjoy the added benefit of a view of the ocean from a picture window or porthole that brings in natural light. This stateroom includes all the amenities of an interior room.

Balcony Cabin: Front Row Seat for Beautiful Scenery

This impressive stateroom offers the added indulgence of a balcony and gives you more space than a standard stateroom. Enjoy your own private outdoor space with a table, two chairs, and a relaxing view of the inspiring scenery surrounding you, whether a beautiful sunset over the ocean or a new city to explore. It’s also perfect to enjoy cocktails before dinner or a leisurely breakfast.

Mini-Suite Cabin: Add an Element of Luxury to Your Stay

Mini-suites include a separate sitting area with a sofa bed and two flat-panel televisions. For families or groups needing a little extra space, Mini-Suites offer an appealing and affordable option.

Suite Cabin: Truly Luxurious Accommodations at Sea

Surrounding you with deluxe accommodations, a spacious Suite with balcony* includes all the amenities of a Reserve Collection Mini-Suite^^, plus incredible premiums. Enjoy more living space, a sofa bed, separate seating areas, and wonderfully enhanced amenities that range from priority disembarkation to a complimentary mini-bar setup in the suite and so much more.
