CUNARD’S Queen Elizabeth has been in Sydney for the last two days, and yesterday Cruise Weekly was treated to a tour of the stately vessel which evokes quintessential British style.
The 2092-passenger ship features stunning chandeliers, wood panelling, marble floors and art deco touches including a full ballroom, a “Big Ben” style clock and of course plenty of images of her namesake royal.
There is a large theatre with opera-style private boxes, sumptuous lounge areas throughout and a range of specialty restaurants along with the Britannia main dining room.
The ballroom features stunning parquetry and truly invites passengers to take a turn around the dance floor, while for a quiet respite there’s a two storey library and plenty of reading nooks.
Yesterday several passengers were making the most of the Sydney sunshine enjoying the onboard pools and bright lounges, while there is also a range of sporting options aboard including bowls, tennis, golf, shuffleboard and of course croquet!
