I tell you what when you see some of the suites, you will want to dream extra hard :) The loft suites on RCL look amazing....but may i ask though, who on earth requires a baby grand piano in their room :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it would be like that Doris Day Movie "By the light of the sivery moon", where everyone stands around the piano doing singalongs. Yeah right. give me an expensive sound system, bose speakers and a extra huge plasma Tv instead please. Then you could use that space the piano was to host your own private disco.

Glad I am not the only one, then.:) I remember seeing pictures of suites with a baby grand and thinking-just how many people can really play these days? Does it come with a pianist for a certain number of hours??? And pity the poor people in the next suite, if you get someone who is just practising their scales.:D I used to sometimes attend a doctor's surgery that had the same thing-this fancy white grand piano. Never ever saw anyone playing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandielle Posted May 10, 2010 #11 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Well I guess a classical pianist having a 'busman's holiday'! or An Orchestra's reunion cruise or............. :D:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livingstone Posted May 11, 2010 #12 Share Posted May 11, 2010 You know, I was going to say who else might be in need of their own piano. but you know what, I recon there is not good reason to have a baby grand in your cabin. Just imagine ringing up the crusie line and saying "Now I want to confirm that suite I am paying a fortune for has a baby grand piano, and I would also like to confirm it has a private pool "......."it does'nt, well I think I am going to cancel that booking", Yeah Right!!

The_Big_M Posted May 12, 2010 #13 Share Posted May 12, 2010 But it's the same with many other things - you don't need a bathtub instead of a shower in a suite, but you get one; you don't need a balcony instead of a view, but you get one, you don't need a loft room instead of a regular room (on Oasis) but they're still some of the most popular cabins onboard. Adding a piano is just an enhancement to give a luxurious, or different holiday feel to the room instead of just being a standard cabin - and some will enjoy the opportunity to use it while others will prefer other things.
