Celebrity expands suite selections aboard Reflection

While celebrating the highly anticipated stateside debut of its stylish Celebrity Silhouette – the fourth and newest member of Celebrity Cruises’ widely heralded Solstice Class fleet – Celebrity Cruises is also intensely focused on the fifth member of the class, Celebrity Reflection, which sets sail in the fall of 2012. And when it does, it will boast all the attributes of the cruise line’s Solstice Class, as well as a host of new features, including a significantly expanded array of luxury suites. This includes the line’s first AquaClass Suites, “Signature Suites”and the new “Reflection Suite.”Located in a private area of the ship’s 14th deck, Celebrity Reflection’s five Signature Suites each offer a 40-square-metre stateroom area and 11-square-metre veranda, with floor-to-ceiling windows and veranda doors, all designed to maximize the views of the sea. Celebrity’s Signature Suites each can accommodate up to four guests, and will offer 24/7 butler service. Nestled in the highly desirable corner location near Celebrity’s new Signature Suites, the Reflection Suite will be the brand’s first two-bedroom suite, complete with a distinctive sea-view bathroom extending out over the edge of the ship, a veranda tub with rain shower, and panoramic views courtesy of the wraparound veranda. The 147-square-metre Reflection Suite with 17-square-metre – complete with Celebrity’s butler service – can accommodate up to six guests. Celebrity Reflection will enter service Oct. 12, 2012, on a nine-night European cruise from Amsterdam to Barcelona. (http://www.celebritycruises.com)
