Staterooms
Of nine types of staterooms and suites a fine choice is an Ocean View Stateroom (categories 4-8). At 170 sq. ft., these cabins offer panoramic windows, sitting areas with sofa beds and two convertible beds. Eighty percent of the accommodations have ocean-views; 74 percent of those with verandas. A veranda is great (in the Mediterranean and the Caribbean -in northern Europe, it may be too cold). Balconied cabins include a Premium Ocean View Stateroom with Veranda (categories 1A-1C) measuring 191 sq. ft. with 41 sq. ft. veranda, sliding glass doors, sitting area with sofa bed and two convertible beds. Other balcony cabins include Deluxe Ocean View Stateroom with Veranda (categories 2A-2C; 170 sq. ft. with 38 sq. ft. veranda) and Large Ocean-View Stateroom with Veranda (category 3; 271 sq. ft. with 242 sq. ft. veranda). Four kinds of suites include palatial Penthouses (1,432 sq. ft. with 1,098 sq. ft. veranda), Royal Suites (538 sq. ft. plus 195 sq. ft. veranda), Celebrity Suites (467 sq. ft. with floor-to-ceiling windows) and Sky Suites (251 sq. ft. plus 57 sq. ft. veranda). Suites boast butler service. However, if your budget allows for only modest accommodations, Inside Staterooms (categories 9-12) aren't too shabby: a roomy 170 sq. ft., with similar layout as the Ocean View Staterooms, but windowless. All cabins offer attractive decor, interactive television, mini-bar, safe, voice mail and hairdryer.
Millennium has some of the largest cabins afloat, with wonderful amenities. Standard amenities include TV with closed-circuit movies, CNN and pay-per-view first run movies; radio, direct dial phone, bathrobes, mini-refrigerator; and large bathrooms with shower, vanity and hair dryer. Passengers can opt to dine in-cabin at night, ordering from the dinner menu, and massages can also be scheduled in staterooms. Standard inside and outside staterooms are 172 sq. ft., with good storage space. The cabins with private balcony are lovely and measure 184 sq. ft. There are 26 wheelchair-accessible staterooms, including several suites.
"Concierge Class" staterooms are 191 square feet with a 41-square-foot veranda and offer a number of upgraded services including welcome aboard champagne, fresh flowers, fruit, afternoon canapes, a leather key holder, personalized stationery, oversized tote bag, upgraded mattresses and bedding. Priority services include priority luggage delivery, dining time and seating preferences, shoe shine service, VIP invitations to exclusive shipboard events, priority shore excursion bookings, early embarkation and debarkation privileges, and a one-touch button on the phone to reach a Concierge Class desk representative directly.
Butler service comes with a suite, and Millennium has wonderful choices. I adore the Sky Suite (254 to 362 sq. ft) with walk-in closets, whirlpool tubs and the large balcony. Even larger are Celebrity Suites (498 sq. ft.), Royal Suites (562 sq. ft.), and the two enormous (1,690 sq. ft.) Penthouse Suites, with wrap-around balconies.
