TheArchitect Posted August 9, 2016 #1 Share Posted August 9, 2016 In lieu of our normal P&O cruise our TA has offered us a good package on a 9 night Med package but the only family cabins (we have a 15 and 13 year old in tow) are down in deck 1. Anyone been down there and able to advise on whether noise from the decks above (or other sources) is a problem? Any other issues to be aware of?

gentlemancruiser Posted August 9, 2016 #2 Share Posted August 9, 2016 I've been in cabin 1003 (deck 1 forward) and we had no issues with noise and we were just outside the royal court theatre. We did have a minor issue with the stage fog but otherwise a very quiet cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LadyL1 Posted August 10, 2016 #3 Share Posted August 10, 2016 My daughter has often had one of these family cabins, when travelling with children younger than yours; no problem for the family of 4. You will be surprised how large they are, plenty of storage, and definitely quiet. People seem to think deck 1 implies something that should be avoided, bit that is certainly not so, it is actually very convenient. I hope you take this and enjoy your cruise, QV is a lovely ship.

TheArchitect Posted August 14, 2016 Author #4 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Many thanks, folks. Still swithering over this or P&O for just a week but with a balcony! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, we've plonked for Cunard so we'll tell you what we think of it next summer! Cabin 1024, for what it's worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheArchitect Posted August 21, 2016 Author #8 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Have a great time and if you have any questions before you go, just ask. Much appreciated, thanks. We're assuming it's like a much posher version of P and O, I must admit, and that even informal requires me to take a couple of jackets - not a problem, I hasten to add. We thought we might get the sleeper down to Euston, then get an early ish train connection from Waterloo to Southampton - or does madness lie with same-day arrival? P and O was always local charters!
