Happy Cruiser 6143 Posted January 4, 2014 #976 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Hello, I hope this finds you all well and warm. (I'm in the Northeast and we are in the middle of a snow storm). All the reviews and Pix are of balcony cabins. So far, there seems to be little (if any) Feedback on Silhouette Inside Cabin? I hope to upgrade as the departure date is closer. Now I am in 9320, slightly aft. Can anyone give me some feedback on this? Thank you for any assistance, /e. elizabeth0829 Hello Elizabeth and welcome to Cruise Critic. Basically, your interior cabin will look just like a balcony cabin. Except that it won't have a balcony. All regular cabins on S class ships up to but not including sky suites are basically the same size. Have you looked on the Celebrity website? It has a picture of an inside cabin. Good luck with your snowstorm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgartin Posted January 4, 2014 #977 Share Posted January 4, 2014 We have just booked this 14 day cruise. Does anyone know anything about cabin 1275? I believe it's a C2. It's on deck 10. Hopefully we don't have any obstructions. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wf083145 Posted January 11, 2014 #978 Share Posted January 11, 2014 This is a great thread with lots of pics and info. We will be in #2106 on Reflection on 3/29. I noticed that OP was not a fan of this location. Has anyone been in this S/R and have any comments about it. Final payment was made so we couldn't do much about it, regardless. The larger veranda seems like an extra plus to me since I'm recovering from surgery for a broken ankle 6 weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesimoni Posted January 20, 2014 #979 Share Posted January 20, 2014 GREAT THREAD. The amount of work that you put into this is staggering. It was very helpful to us in picking cabins. We are booked on Solstice in 9298, was hoping that room on the back of the hump may cut down on the wind a bit, as a June Alaska sailing may not be the warmest. Would be interested in knowing your views...positives and negative for this room, and any photos you may have. I saw there was a previous post with an outside view, but think that was a different ship, and don't know if they correspond the same. Again though, Thanks for the huge amount of work that you devoted to this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again though, Thanks for the huge amount of work that you devoted to this thread. Solstice, Equinox and Eclipse have identical deck plans as far as the cabins go. Every Balcony Cabin, whether an aqua class, concierge or standard balcony has one of 2 nearly the identical INTERNAL layouts with the only change being whether the bed is by the balcony or whether the sofa is by the balcony. The other differences are minor, such as whether you have footstools. If you can find a picture of one, you found a picture of the other. Of course, there are differences in the actual balconies and locations/views and overhangs. In this case, the bed is by the bathroom and the sofa is by the balcony. You should have footstools as you're in a C1. They alternate on each deck, so the opposite is true for th cabins on each side and below you. You can read more actual cabin reviews here: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=911018 Simply search by the cabin number.

Elizabeth0829 Posted January 21, 2014 #981 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I hope this finds you well. Cruising in 7263 Silhouette on 6 April 2014. The only reviewed cabin close is one that has a bad reputation (crew door across the hall with much noise early in the AM). :confused: Does anyone have any details on 7263? The spreadsheet is awesome. :) Thank you for all your hard work. It's invaluable. :D /d. brose0829@yahoo.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Addie Francis Posted January 21, 2014 #982 Share Posted January 21, 2014 This is the Second Part of the Grand Tour of Celebrity Eclipse and other S-Class ships. The First Part covers: S-Class ships interior design and layout Various Cabins: from Inside Cabins to Sky Suites (S2) Video of the Celebrity Solstice And more... The next part is Sky Suite mini-suitescategory S1 A few looks at 7356 on the Eclipse (note: similar cabin may have different numbers on different S-Class ships) Nicely appointed cabins. A strange design feature of the "corner" Sky Suites - load bearing metal posts in the middle of the room. Not a sign of sophisticated ship design to say the least. The number of posts varies from 1 to 2 in different cabins of this category. What an amazing review. Do you know anything about cabin 2104? We will be sailing on March 22, 2014.

WIIsland Posted January 23, 2014 #983 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Any input on Silhouette aft cabin 6289 versus forward cabin 6145? I have seen pictures of 6289 (I think it's a diagonal balcony on the blue deck in the back, slightly largery). I haven't seen any pictures of 6145. How obstructed in 6145? Anyone have pictures (inside and outside)? Another option would possibly be 6302/6303, if they become available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elizabeth0829 Posted January 24, 2014 #984 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I made a mistake in the number of my last post inquiry....:o "I hope this finds you well. Cruising in 7263 Silhouette on 6 April 2014. The only reviewed cabin close is one that has a bad reputation.... I am actually sailing in cabin # 7253.

Sea rabbit Posted January 26, 2014 #985 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Enjoyed reading the diverse opinions. Any comments on 9350 on the Eclipse. Booked now so a bit late bur appreciate any info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ncdachsiemom Posted January 26, 2014 #986 Share Posted January 26, 2014 What an amazing review. Do you know anything about cabin 2104? We will be sailing on March 22, 2014.Betty 2104 is a nice cabin....2105 and 2106 are my favorites when I can get them...stayed in 2106 last year, and booked in 2107 on the Feb 8 cruise. They have larger balconies. However, the location is awesome...quiet, convenient to everything....my favorite location on the Eclipse. Have fun!

LuckyDogsV&E Posted January 30, 2014 #987 Share Posted January 30, 2014 When are you cruising? We booked 7215 for January 25 2014 on Reflection. I would love to see some pics! Hoping its a good choice :-) We just booked cabin 7217 on the Reflection for March, but was also looking at 7215. When you get back would you give your option? Hope you have a great cruise.

travellink Posted February 3, 2014 #991 Share Posted February 3, 2014 9270 1A Eclipse- anyone?? This is 9270 on Silhouette (same position as on Eclipse) which has bed by the bath. I have mostly pics of balcony as most cabins are laid out the same except for bed position. Love the 3X balcony! Your view forward : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
790294 Posted February 3, 2014 #992 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Just booked 7318 and 7320 for March 2015 do you have any pics of these balconies please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vacation fool Posted February 4, 2014 #993 Share Posted February 4, 2014 this is an awesome thread.thankyou! must admit i am thoroughly confused though. are 8279 and 8199 cat 1A on eclipse the 2x deeper balconies or 3x deeper? are they good views and location? thanks much. have been reading for a few hours and did not come across that info yet ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elizabeth0829 Posted February 4, 2014 #994 Share Posted February 4, 2014 This thread is magnificent, thanks Cruisetrail. :D Great to see the pix and read the info on these cabins. Are the S ships laid out pretty much the same? If I looked at 7253 on one of the other S-class ships, would it be the same as the Silhouette? :confused: I'm going on the Silhouette in April in # 7253, anybody got info or pix of it? I'd especially like to see one of those pix of the outside of the ship detailing where the cabin is located...:) thank you all for your posts, I am learning so much by reading for the past couple of hours. /Elizabeth0829 :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phyllisrf Posted February 4, 2014 #995 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Thanks so much Travellink. Just two questions- will we have sun on the veranda?; will the lifeboats be beneath this cabin? (9270). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mellow52 Posted February 6, 2014 #996 Share Posted February 6, 2014 This thread has been incredibly helpful as I've spent far too much time researching cabins. I'm hoping for a 1B on the 9th deck on port side with the bed near the bath. I'm taking an Australia/NZ cruise on Solstice in Nov 14 heading north from Sydney...assuming port cabins will provide better views cruising up the NZ coast. My question....If I choose 9233 on the hump is our door directly across from the entrance to the elevator/stairs and thus too noisy? I'm torn between a balcony without lifeboats underneath but noise from the elevator/stairs or 9147 in the forward section but too windy and cooler in Nov. Willing to go to 1A for a 9155 but not sure that's any better. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickT Posted February 7, 2014 #998 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Thanks to everyone who has posted on this thread. Lots of great photos and information. Based on the information here (as well as my fuzzy memory from sailing other S-Class ships) I just booked a 2B cabin (7192) on the Equinox. It's on the starboard side (ie, the non-smoking side) and appears to have no issues with lifeboats or other obstructions. Any thoughts/comments on this choice would be appreciated. We've previously been in 8125 on the Silhouette and 7118 on the Solstice. Both were fine however further forward on the ship than 7192. Definitely no issues with lifeboats.

Chelly Posted February 9, 2014 #999 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Spectacular!!!! I can't applaud you enough Cruisetail. Special thanks for reminding me how very much I love Holland American and how very much I do not care for Celebrity. I have sailed on Solstice and Silhouette. Stark, cold, wasted open space. Cheap feel to cabins. Staff with attitude. Just my humble opinion. Everybody's got one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you please comment as to why HAL is much better than Celebrity? In no way do I mean this in a negative manner. I had a TA who told me the best and only way to cruise Alaska was HAL. Since we are fairly new to crusing there are ships I know I would not sail on for sure. Please do me a favor and elaborate. I would appreciate it. I've been looking at other cruises and I really don't have the time to go through all the threads on the HAL forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
