Are Cunard About To Ruin Queen Victoria?
Cunard’s beloved Queen Victoria is heading to dry dock in Rotterdam this October for an extensive refurbishment. But as one of the more traditional and intimate ships in the fleet, is there a risk of losing her classic charm? In this video, we dive into the confirmed changes coming to Queen Victoria, including the reimagined Queen’s Room, the refreshed Grand Lobby, and the brand-new Pavilion Wellness Café. We also share our research on exactly where those eight new Britannia staterooms are being added and what that means for the ship's layout. Can Cunard modernize this fan-favorite without turning her into a "Queen Anne 2"? We’ve just booked our first sailing on her to find out for ourselves! In this video: Details on the October 2026 dry dock in Rotterdam. A look at the new interior renders for the Grand Lobby and Queen's Room. The addition of the Pavilion Wellness Café. Where the new Britannia Deluxe Ocean View cabins are located. Our thoughts on maintaining the traditional "ocean liner" atmosphere. What do you think of these updates?
