The Botticelli Dining Room is the Grand Princes cruise ship's traditional seating dining room where you will have the opportunity to meet your fellow passengers while dining, and if you are lucky you might just get invited to sit with the captain.

Additionally the Grand Princess cruise ship has a fantastic authentic Italian restaurant, Trattoria Sabatini's and a traditional steakhouse, the Sterling Steakhouse which offers some of the most tender cuts of meat around as well as a prime rib carving station.

Don't worry if you are not in to the fancy dining, there are plenty of smaller and less formal places to satisfy you apatite, such as the outdoor hamburger grill, the pizzeria or the ice cream parlor. Additionally you can find something for everyone at the 24 hour buffet and bistro. And if you really want to be spoiled you could always opt for the 24 hour room service.
