Jilliebean28 Posted May 16, 2016 #1 Share Posted May 16, 2016 We are contemplating booking one of these but have concerns about their location. Has anyone ever cruised in one of these suites? Thoughts?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonit964 Posted May 16, 2016 #2 Share Posted May 16, 2016 We were on the Crown in March, we didn't have one of those suites however folks hanging out on the deck above the bridge can look fully onto your balcony, so there is no privacy while anyone is hanging around there. Also, the balcony is very narrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2belgiantervs Posted May 16, 2016 #3 Share Posted May 16, 2016 (edited) Had booked a minisuite on the Crown for our 6/2012 Med cruise. Our TA got us upgraded to this suite at no charge (great TA!). The suite was very nice and roomy. The bathroom is not the typical suite bathroom with separate shower and whirlpool tub. It is more like a minisuite bathroom with the tub/shower combination. The balcony is HUGE (40 ft, I believe) and is kind of windy when the ship is moving. Yes, if the observation deck is open, everyone can see you. Proximity to the spa/gym is excellent. Since it's as the front of the ship, it's a long walk to get to different venues. Any other questions, please ask!

cruisefan2012 Posted May 18, 2016 #4 Share Posted May 18, 2016 I found this video on youtube of cabin L106 on Emerald Princess Not the Crown Princess you asked about but should give you an idea of the room features and layout Enjoy - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonit964 Posted May 18, 2016 #6 Share Posted May 18, 2016 I think you should try and get one of the aft penthouse suites instead. Those are incredible!! The balcony has a teak wood dining table with 4 cushioned chairs and two teak cushioned loungers and small table. There is a glass railing with plenty of space to still walk around. It's not cramped at all. The bathroom has a shower and a separate bathtub with a separate toilet/sink area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame on Princess for passing this off as an S5 class suite. It is a mini suite on other ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
