#10 Best New Hotel for Romance 2008: Queen Victoria

Far more than a hotel that floats, Cunard's new ship Queen Victoria set out on her maiden voyage from Southampton, England in December 2007.

A throwback to more genteel times, Queen Victoria was built to carry passengers on voyages across the world's oceans. Since some of these crossings include more days at sea than aboard regular cruise ships, she offers couples a greater variety of daily and evening activities.

Three swimming pools, a library with 6,000 volumes, a theater with West End-style private boxes, musicians who serenade daily at high tea, priceless artwork and historical photos and memorabilia to peruse, a two-story shopping arcade, a spa, and a Todd English restaurant are a few of the attractions and facilities that make couples choose a cruise for a honeymoon, anniversary, or romantic getaway. Perhaps you should this year, too.
