Celebrity Solstice Gets US$8.5 Million Makeover
Celebrity Solstice will soon offer cruisers many new offerings as the ship undergoes a “bold refresh.”
New features include Celebrity Cruises’ “A Taste of Film” experience under the stars, authentic Japanese cuisine at Sushi on Five and a re-imagined Photo Gallery.
The revitalization, which is scheduled for late this month, will see various enhancements and additions implemented across the ship, including:
!!! A Taste of Film: Celebrity Solstice will be the first of the Solstice Class ships to offer the gastronomic adventure, which pairs films that evoke a specific cultural, culinary or destination experience, with cuisine that brings the scenes on the screen to life through guests’ taste buds. A large movie screen will be added to The Lawn Club where the unique culinary experience will be hosted.
!!! Sushi on Five: Celebrity’s hotly anticipated newest dining endeavour will be re-imaged from what was once Bistro on Five and feature an expertly crafted à la carte menu. The new menu, curated by sushi chef Yoshikazu “Yoshi” Okada, offers hand-rolled sushi, fresh tableside grated wasabi, house-made soy sauce, Asian-inspired cocktails, Japanese beers and premium sakes, plus an array of mouth-watering starters and entrees.
The revitalization of Solstice will also see the following new distinct additions: Suites onboard will have various modern luxury enhancements, including new patio furniture being added to suite balconies; the Photo Gallery will receive a full modern luxury makeover, removing the traditional panel display of printed photos.
In addition, an expansive Art Gallery will emerge from the current Photo Gallery, featuring a dedicated auction location with contemporary art lining the freshly renovated space.
