Description:
Visit Monte Carlo, Naples, Gibraltar, LivornoYour entrance into this graceful realm is dramatic indeed, as you encounter the curved staircases, geometric patterns and spectacular artwork of the soaring Grand Lobby. Overlooking its stately grandeur is the two-tier Library, a calm haven of warm wood tones bathed in natural reading light and crowned with a fabulous leaded glass ceiling.
Opulent materials, luxuriant furnishings and art deco period flourishes create a stirring impression elsewhere on board, as you’ll discover in the double height Queens Room. Here, sip afternoon tea beneath ornate cantilevered balconies and specially commissioned stained glass panels or waltz across the intricate wooden dance floor, gloriously illuminated by the magnificent chandelier.

Queen Elizabeth - 5 STAR
The maiden voyage of the 90,400-tonne ocean liner will be a 13-night journey to the Atlantic Isles calling at Vigo, Lisbon, Cadiz, Gran Canaria, Tenerife, La Palma and Madeira.
Queen Elizabeth's inaugural season will also offer a 14-night Mediterranean Premiere, a 19-night Aegean Introduction, a five-night Gallic Debut, a second voyage to Iberia and the Canaries and a 22-night Christmas voyage to the Caribbean.
Carrying 2092 guests and costing around 365 million pounds, Queen Elizabeth will be the second largest Cunard ship ever built, and the third new ocean liner to be introduced by Cunard in six years, giving one of the oldest names in shipping the strength of owning the youngest fleet in the industry.
Named after the first Queen Elizabeth, one of Cunard's greatest ships, the new Queen Elizabeth will reference her predecessor in interior grandeur, décor and style, but with a modern twist.
From the outside, her distinctive black and red livery will hint at an experience that differentiates a Cunard liner from a modern-day cruise ship. This will be most evident in the ship's adherence to liner traditions, with elegant double and triple height public rooms on a grand scale.
In addition to the extensive Cunard entertainment program on board, Queen Elizabeth will offer some unique strands inspired by the era of the first Queen Elizabeth such as country house parties, Ivor Novello style piano evenings, and period dancing, from traditional ballroom to the jitterbug and the jive all within the setting of this 21st century ship.
As successor to Queen Elizabeth 2, the ship will also reflect this great liner through artworks and memorabilia, and its very own Yacht Club.
Key public areas will include:
The Queen's Room - a new take on the traditional Cunard ballroom, with artwork depicting views from royal palaces, along with its 1000-square foot dance floor, for grand balls and tea dances at sea.
The Garden Lounge, with its magnificent vaulted glass ceiling creating a conservatory feel inspired by the glass houses of Kew Gardens, and Supper Clubs mixing dining with dancing under the stars.
The Games Deck which will offer, croquet, paddle tennis and traditional British bowls, celebrating the oldest surviving bowls green in Cunard's homeport of Southampton.
The art deco style Britannia Restaurant, with its unique and elegant sweeping staircase, where ladies can create an enviable grand entrance.
The Britannia Club for single seating dining for those in the top balcony staterooms.
The Midships Bar, paying homage to her namesake liner, the first Queen Elizabeth, with memorabilia displayed from that era.
The ship will also feature the line's celebrated luxury Grills accommodation and dining, with its alfresco dining option on an exclusive deck terrace, beautiful restaurants, Grills Lounge and sunbathing deck.
Announcing the new addition, Cunard President and Managing Director Carol Marlow said that there had been an Elizabeth in the Cunard fleet for more than 70 years.
This beautiful modern day celebration of our past Elizabeths will ensure this proud tradition will continue far into this century, Ms Marlow added.
Carol Marlow said the introduction of the ship was particularly noteworthy as, following the withdrawal from service of QE2 last year, it would mark a return to Cunard enjoying three Queens in service together - a first established during 2008, after the launch of Queen Victoria. But now, all three ships would offer the benefits of modern design and state of the art technology.
