EeezyCruiser Posted November 6, 2014 #1 Share Posted November 6, 2014 We are longtime Seabourn cruisers but we are stumped on this one. We've been assigned a V6 cabin on the pool deck, deck 8, just inside from the Sky Bar. Great if we were sunbathers, which we are not. But our big concern is that our cabin wall is adjoins the patio grill galley, which could mean it will be very noisy at times. This is a big worry because it is a long cruise from Barcelona to Cape Town, 39 days. I also seem to recall that the interior corridor leading from the sky bar can be very smoky. Has anyone stayed in this cabin and can comment? i've seen many posts referring to the noise from the pool deck heard from the cabins below on deck seven but nothing about any noise on deck eight. We would really appreciate your feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlielou Posted November 6, 2014 #2 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Hi, we stayed in 830 on the Sojourn this August and never heard any noise from the patio grill. There is a crew staircase in between the suite and the door leading out to the patio grill area. We found the location to be perfect for nipping back to the suite from wherever we were on the ship, and would gladly stay in 830 again. I hope this eases any worries you may have and enjoy your cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roxburgh Posted November 6, 2014 #4 Share Posted November 6, 2014 (edited) We had the suite opposite 830 on our last cruise and for 26 days. It was great! No noise problems and a convenient location. Edited November 6, 2014 by Roxburgh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smoothcruiser Posted November 6, 2014 #5 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Earlier this year we were upgraded to 827. If you refer to an earlier thread re: upgrades you will see my previous comments. We were very disappointed with the disturbances from the staff doors opposite this suite. Not shown on the deck plan is a staff lift, and the exit to the corridors is through this door. From very early on we were continually disturbed by staff members just letting this door slam shut. We did report it, but to no avail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secoma4 Posted November 7, 2014 #6 Share Posted November 7, 2014 The door slamming is a very simple maintenance issue which can be rectified by adjusting the closer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EeezyCruiser Posted November 7, 2014 Author #7 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Thank you all for the pros and cons of this cabin. We shall see next week if the door slamming is an issue, but it sounds like there's a quick fix, if they can be persuaded to do so. But I am sure, no matter what, we shall enjoy our cruise.
