I'll give it a go Posted May 20, 2012 #1 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Hi, can anyone advise me as to whether you always have the loveseat/sofa replaced by a chair (to allow for the connecting door) when staying in a connecting stateroom. I wondered whether this just happens with some or all staterooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travelingclerk Posted May 20, 2012 #2 Share Posted May 20, 2012 We've been in connecting cabins a few times. The sofa is the sofa. The bed was by the balcony door and the connecting door was at the foot of the bed close to the balcony wall. Does this help? Or have I managed to make it as clear as mud? :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kruzerci Posted May 20, 2012 #3 Share Posted May 20, 2012 I think it is only with Insides, oceanviews, and maybe E category balconies. I have seen a D category with the door at the foot of the bed, as described above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marie51 Posted May 20, 2012 #4 Share Posted May 20, 2012 I have been in connecting cabins in oceanview, balcony and jr suite cabins and all have had a sofa, not a chair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akcruz Posted May 20, 2012 #5 Share Posted May 20, 2012 We had E1 connecting cabins last year and had chairs in both cabins, no sofa. The door was next to the bed. Cannot help with other configurations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedHeadTexan Posted May 21, 2012 #6 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Promenade View connecting cabins still have the couch and the love seat. Connecting door is at the foot of the bed next to the tv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiffymom Posted May 21, 2012 #7 Share Posted May 21, 2012 We have had many balcony connecting rooms. Always had a sofa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll give it a go Posted May 21, 2012 Author #9 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Thank you all for your replies, much appreciated. If I'm reading this correctly, it's looking like you don't loose the sofa if the bed is positioned sideways on as opposed to facing you as you enter the cabin.

CRUISINGCPA Posted May 21, 2012 #10 Share Posted May 21, 2012 We have found that connecting E1's have chairs, D1's have the loveseat size sofa, & JS's have the full sofa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusinpeg Posted May 21, 2012 #11 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Still confused...I have an INTERIOR connecting cabin (deck 3)..will I loose my sofa?? The ship is FOS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathep Posted May 21, 2012 #12 Share Posted May 21, 2012 And I'm curious about category H connecting rooms, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newfirsttimer Posted May 21, 2012 #13 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Still confused...I have an INTERIOR connecting cabin (deck 3)..will I loose my sofa?? The ship is FOS. We also have interior connecting cabins on FOS and I am told that there is no sofa, only a chair since the connecting door is in that area. Sounds like the OP is correct, if the bed is facing you when you enter, then only a chair but if the bed is on the side wall, then a sofa is there and the connecting door is at the foot of the bed.

digital_curator Posted May 21, 2012 #14 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Do you have the option of a PR room? We had one of those in a connecting cabin but had both our love seat and the window seat- it's a great configuration for only a little more than the inside price.

Our E1 cabins had the bed on the side wall, the balcony was at the end, but had chairs. Maybe it is dependent on the size of the cabin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyndhurst2012 Posted May 21, 2012 #17 Share Posted May 21, 2012 We had a chair in both rooms on Indy in March. It was on Deck 7 E1 balcony, portside, midship. The bed was on the side wall near the balcony, the connecting door was the other side of the bedside table and the chair was the other side of the door. There was enough space but the coffee table seemed to always be in the way! Hope this info is not too confusing.:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope this info is not too confusing.:confused: Okay, so that my ruins my theory regarding the bed being on the side wall guanteeing you keep the sofa. It would seem that some cabins have the connecting door opposite the end of the bed, thus keeping the sofa and others still have the door in the seating area, loosing them the sofa.

Din321 Posted May 21, 2012 #20 Share Posted May 21, 2012 We had a connecting balcony room on Jewel of the Seas and the bed was in front of the balcony door and the connecting door was at the foot of the bed. We had a connecting balcony room on the Liberty of the Seas, the room was set up the same way, but the connecting door was right before the bedside table and there was only a chair. That usually bothers me because we love the sofa, but we actually enjoyed all the extra space in the room! Diane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reallyitsmema Posted May 21, 2012 #21 Share Posted May 21, 2012 I think it is class related as opposed to configuration related. The two posters that are saying chair were on Freedom class ships. Edit: Akcruz was a Voyager class though, wonder if it is just those two classes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassicruiser Posted May 21, 2012 #22 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Has anyone had a connecting Oceanview on Radiance class? I am also wondering about the sofa and the position of the bed (is it under the window or alongside)? Or even if on another ship other than Radiance Class, as all Royal connecting oceanviews could possibly be the same? I have asked this question previously with no response so am hoping someone here can help :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinDawn Posted May 21, 2012 #23 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Do you have the option of a PR room? We had one of those in a connecting cabin but had both our love seat and the window seat- it's a great configuration for only a little more than the inside price.I agree a connecting PR is a great cabin, connecting or not. On Cabin Crawls we have seen E1's that suffer from the chair, personally wouldn't bother me since we rarely use the couch and in an inside cabin every inch is precious so a smaller piece of furniture your not going to use might be good. :D When our daughter had a PR we used both couches quite often. I love the layout of that cabin. BonVoyage Dawna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nmhawk Posted May 22, 2012 #24 Share Posted May 22, 2012 I had two connecting D1 balconies on Adventure. For some reason one of the rooms had a chair and the other has a sofa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
