The Cunard web site contains a QV ship tour Here.

It may or may not be new, but there are certainly a few 'artists impressions' that I had not seen before, but I may be out of touch.

Enjoy.

I have to say that from artists renditions, I overall prefer the decor of the QM2 over QV. The Commodore Club and the Queens Grill being prime examples.

Its interesting to see there is two observation lounge on deck 10 (the Commodore Lounge and Hemisphere).

Probably this has been mentioned, but the overall decor is simply Princess pastel with a little color.

Well if it does in fact turn out similar to the renderings I will like it very much. I think she is more elegant than the QM2. The only rooms I dont really like as much are the Winter Garden and the Champagne Bar. Apart from her dissapointing exterior it seems she will be a nice ship.

Of course it is impossible to accurately judge a ships interiors from artist renderings, but we won't let that stop us now, will we? I often find that the renderings are better than what is eventually created.

The Grand Lobby, the Queens Room, the Britannia Dining Room and the Library all look very nice indeed to me. The remaining public rooms don’t look bad as such, but look just like those on almost any other modern cruise ship.

However, the superb QM2 has more thatn it's fair share of stunning rooms and a few more mediocre ones too.

(I’ve not seen any images of the QV Chart Room yet? Have I just overlooked it?)
