Fodor's Review:
Rich in history and tradition, the legendary (and allegedly haunted) Queen Mary, once the reigning maritime monarch of the Atlantic, transports its guests to a bygone era. The ship's first-class staterooms and suites are decorated in the classic art deco of the 1930s. There's plenty of nighttime entertainment, from a comedy club to live theater to jazz. Holidays are big on the Queen Mary; New Year's Eve and July 4 are famously spectacular. Room stays include a self-guided tour of the venerable vessel. Wi-Fi is available in the lobby only.

Charming but a bit Faded

Staying overnight on the Queen Mary is worth it, for the atmosphere and nostalgia of another era. We stayed in Room A144, which unfortunately faced the parking lot, but the period piece vanity and shower fixtures made up for it. The toiletries provided (soap, lotion, etc.) were very nice smelling. The room wasn't as clean or well-kept as I would have liked (dusty fixtures, carpet edges were soiled, small pieces of wood pulling away from furniture), but it is an old ship. The self-guided tour made for a fun afternoon of exploring. We ate at the Promenade Cafe (we needed a children's menu) and found it to be reasonably priced and an enjoyable meal.
