The world's biggest and most expensive ever cruise ship

Royal Caribbean's 'Symphony of the Seas'  -  The ship weighs 228,000 tonnes, and at 1,188 feet long, it is just 20 metres shy of the length of the Empire State Building in New York.

The cruise ship also has a one-of-a-kind ultimate family suite, set over two levels and 1,346 square feet.

The fun-focused suite has a slide installed for guests wanting to get from the upper to the lower level, and also features a floor-to-ceiling Lego wall as well as an air hockey table and a ping pong table.

For those wanting to relax, guests in the suite can chill out in the private cinema that comes with a 85-inch HD TV along with a library of video games. Or they can head for the full-size whirlpool hot tub and lounge on the cabin's 212 square-foot balcony, which has ocean views.

The vessel was constructed at a cost of £959million at a shipyard in Saint Nazaire in France.

Along with having 20 restaurants, there will be more than six bars including one where robots rustle up the cocktails. Other attractions include a zip wire, ice rink, mini golf course, climbing walls, surf simulator and a full-size basketball court.

Symphony of the Seas - which is the 25th ship in Royal Caribbean’s fleet - will launch on March 31 and take its first paying passengers in April, kicking off a summer season in the Mediterranean with calls to ports in Spain, France and Italy.

Beginning on November 24, the adventure-packed ship will make Miami, Florida, her year-round home, taking holidaymakers on seven-night Caribbean voyages
