WrigleyGirl90 Posted January 2, 2014 #1 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Hello, New to river cruising and french balcony staterooms. Is there room to pull 2 chairs out on french balcony or is this balcony pretty much for standing ? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexandra cruiser Posted January 2, 2014 #2 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Can t stand on it,do look at web pics. Some AMA have regular balcony,which you CAN stand and sit on. Prefer them now,makes small cabin feel much larger.These cost more,but worth it.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingtips56 Posted January 3, 2014 #3 Share Posted January 3, 2014 French balconies as an architectural item are indeed just floor length opening windows with a railing so you don't fall out. Pretty much the same on buildings as they are on river ships. Generally not so much as a skinny step outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Host Jazzbeau Posted January 3, 2014 #6 Share Posted January 3, 2014 But you do have the entire width as a window, so the cabin is full of light and the view is great - and it doesn't steal any square footage from the cabin layout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobes1 Posted January 13, 2014 #7 Share Posted January 13, 2014 We opened our's one night to listen to a band playing nearby. We were rewarded with a cabin full of insects! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
