LONDON, Feb.15, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Cruise Critic, the world's leading cruise review site and online cruise community, has named the winners of the 2017 Cruise Critic UK Cruisers' Choice Awards.

"Overall, the cruise industry excels in its offerings to travellers - from phenomenal entertainment to exceptional service - and these awards highlight the cruise lines that travellers rank as particularly outstanding, in order to assist those planning a cruise," explained Adam Coulter, UK editor Cruise Critic. "Travellers increasingly consult consumer reviews and photos for guidance when researching, and these awards aim to streamline this process further."

The line's newest, and largest ship, Celebrity Reflection won Best Overall, Best Cabins and Best Value. Celebrity Silhouette received Best Service and Best Public Rooms, while Celebrity Infinity, which offers sailings to destinations such as the Panama Canal, Africa and Colombia, was commended in the Best Shore Excursions category.
Once again, Oceania Cruise's Riviera scored highly in the Mid-Size category, with the line maintaining all of its six first place rankings from 2016, including Best Overall, Best Dining, and Best Service. Thomson Cruises' Thomson Spirit also took three Mid-Size awards for Best Entertainment, Best Shore Excursions, and Best Value.
In the Small Ship category, Viking Ocean Cruises has continued to impress cruisers, riding the waves with eight accolades. The line's first ship, Viking Star launched in 2015, followed by Viking Sea in 2016. Viking Star took awards for Best Overall, Best Embarkation, Best Public Rooms, Best Service and Best Value, while Viking Sea won Best Cabins, Best Entertainment and Best Fitness and Recreation.
