Celebrity Summit reaches new heights

Celebrity Summit is ready to turn heads after completing a dramatic transformation. The ship’s revitalization is the next chapter of THE CELEBRITY REVOLUTION in which Celebrity Cruises is investing more than $500-million in upgrades across the fleet.

Celebrity Summit has emerged from a month-long bow-to-stern transformation. Thousands of engineers, architects, artisans, designers, contractors and members of the Celebrity team collaborated to ensure the flawless execution of the ship’s dramatic modernization. Celebrity Summit now offers completely redesigned staterooms and suites, an exclusive area for suite guests, reimagined restaurants, bars and lounges and a fully redesigned spa and casino. Celebrity Summit is also the first ship to feature Celebrity Cruises’ partnerships with American Ballet Theatre and Chef Daniel Boulud.

NEW STATEROOMS AND SUITES

When updating staterooms and suites, every detail was thought through, with guest comfort at the forefront. Celebrity collaborated with renowned international hospitality firm Hirsch Bedner Associates (HBA) to transform the staterooms, while turning to famed designer Kelly Hoppen, MBE, to refresh the gorgeous suites and bring The Retreat to Celebrity Summit.
