What visitors say

• Jonathan Phan★★★★★

  The Queen Mary is an excellent spot for photography and sightseeing, even if you’re not staying overnight. The ship’s historic architecture, vintage details, and dramatic waterfront setting make it a visually striking place to explore. Walking through the public corridors and decks feels like stepping back in time, with preserved woodwork, portholes, and maritime décor that create a nostalgic atmosphere. The ship is quiet and peaceful during most hours, which makes taking photos easy and enjoyable. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable, often sharing interesting historical notes that add depth to the visit. The views from the decks are beautiful, especially during sunset when the harbor lights begin to reflect off the water. Nearby attractions like Shoreline Village and the Aquarium of the Pacific make the area even more appealing for a casual day trip. Walkability is strong both on the ship and around the waterfront, allowing visitors to explore without needing transportation. Safety feels steady, with well‑maintained public areas and secure access points throughout the ship. Even without dining, the restaurants and cafés add charm to the environment and offer additional photo opportunities. The ship’s age is noticeable, but that vintage character is part of what makes the Queen Mary unique. Overall, the Queen Mary is a great choice for travelers who want scenic views, historic ambiance, and a relaxed place to take photos. It delivers a memorable experience without requiring an overnight stay, making it ideal for quick visits, date nights, or casual sightseeing. The ship’s charm, quiet atmosphere, and beautiful surroundings make it a standout Long Beach landmark worth visiting.

  Always an incredible stay! We came down from Washington for a family vacation and made reservations for the mini suite and graveyard ghost tour on July 18th-19th. 10/10 experience. The ghost tour wasn’t quite as in depth as pre covid days, but still so much fun to hear about the history of the ship and the spirits that reside there! David and Chris led an amazing tour and made sure our time was a great one. David is so knowledgeable of the ship’s history and I learned so much from him that I didn’t learn before. Chris was very funny and kept things less scary :) A great pair. Dinner at the Chelsea was lovely and our room was quaint and quiet. The only somewhat downside is the lack of AC in each room, but that is to be expected of course. When I called the front desk for fans, they brought them immediately and they were very helpful. Thank you to the staff who always makes it such a fun stay. We will be back!
