VALENCIA, Calif. – Since re-entering service after her
remastering in June 2016, Queen Mary 2 has received several accolades and awards
which underline the success of the significant work completed on the Cunard flagship including:
Berlitz Cruising and Cruise Ships Guide 2017 awarded Queen
Mary 2 ‘Top Large Resort Ship 2017’, ‘Most Luxurious Suites 2017’ and ‘Best
Cruise Ship Spa 2017’
Cruise Critic’s 2016 Editors’ Pick awarded Queen Mary 2, ‘Best
Cruise Ship Refurbishment’
Town & Country Magazine’s 2016 Cruise Awards awarded
Cunard ‘Best for Onboard Activities, Mainstream Luxury’ and Queen Mary 2 ‘Best
for Pet Lovers, Mainstream Luxury’
“Today we are proud not only of our great flagship Queen Mary
2 and the enhancements from over one-million man hours during the
refurbishment, but we are also proud of the crew and staff who continue to
deliver the highest standards of Cunard’s famed White Star Service,” said
Richard Meadows, President, Cunard North America.
“It is an honor to be recognized by distinguished
organizations such as Berlitz, Cruise Critic and Town & Country, and we are
overjoyed with the positive feedback we have received from both loyal and
first-time Cunarders,” he said.
Queen Mary 2’s Remastering cost in the region of $132
million, and it was one of the most remarkable renovations undertaken by
Cunard. The newly-renovated Queen Mary 2 takes its art deco design inspiration
from the original Queen Mary, which debuted into service 80 years ago.
“Queen Mary 2 has become an icon,” said Douglas Ward,
Author, Berlitz Cruise and Cruise Ships Guide. “Not a cruise ship, but an ocean
liner – and the only one to offer regularly scheduled crossings of the North
Atlantic throughout much of the year. Following her recent multi-million pound
refit and refurbishment the ship is more an ocean liner than ever.
“With its British style and comfort, Queen Mary 2 is one of
the best ways to enjoy a digital detox voyage into relaxation and
self-indulgence. Queen Mary 2 is a real ocean pampership for all ages, and this
is reflected in her high marks and rating.”
