Help with Spirit deck & cabin choice

[Meg67]

Hi, I have just booked a 10 day cruise on the Spirit for August 2018 and could do with some advice on deck and cabin choice.

I am currently booked into an outside picture window cabin located on deck 6 forward (cabin 6018) but toying with paying a little extra for a slightly larger outside on deck 8.

Looking at the deck plan, I am currently directly under the casino but if I moved up to deck 8, I would be directly over it, so my question is, apart from a slightly larger cabin, would I reduce the risk of noise from the Casino by being above it rather than below it.

TIA Meg😎

Hi, Meg 67

 

From what I have read both deck 6 and deck 8 have issues so you will have to determine, by reading reviews and knowing your sleep patterns, if either deck is a good fit for you. I found a review here on CC from someone who stayed in 6018 and loved it. Search for Reviews NCL Spirit and put in the cabin number Good luck.:

 

 

 

• Forward on Deck 6 of the Norwegian Spirit, exterior cabins 6500- 6530 port side, 6000- 6030 starboard, and inside staterooms 6503- 6519, 6521- 6533, and 6003- 6019 are under the casino, where there could be late night noise issues. If you are light sleeper, you may prefer to find a cabin elsewhere on the ship.
  

 

• Best cabins to consider on Deck 8 of the Norwegian Spirit are 8550- 8553 port side and 8050- 8052 starboard. These will be a bit quieter because they are not over the casino bar area.
  
• The rest of the staterooms (8500- 8538 port side, 8000- 8038 starboard, and all of the Spirit's Deck 8 inside cabins) happen to be right over the bar and casino. This could be a noise concern until very late at night.

Thanks for the info....... Would I be better off by going down to an outside on deck 5?

This is what I found about deck 5:

On the Norwegian Spirit's Deck 5, most of the staterooms have cabins above and beneath to buffer noises from public areas. Staterooms on this deck are worth considering for economy minded travelers!

 

• Inside cabin 5035 is larger than average, but it's located by a stairwell and could have noise issues.
  
• There are several ocean view cabins (5500- 5612 port side and 5000- 5100 starboard) from which to choose on Deck 5 of the Norwegian Spirit.
  
• Aft on Deck 5 of the Norwegian Spirit, Oceanview Staterooms 5600- 5612 port side, 5100 starboard, and interior cabins 5599, 5601, and 5099 are under the general area of the smaller main dining room. There could be noise during dining hours and during the clean-up after each meal. For dinner, the last diners usually exit by 10:30 and there is likely some noise from the clean-up (vacuum cleaners) as late as 11:30. Given that most people don't get back to their cabins to after 11 PM, this shouldn't be a substantial issue. Breakfast typically starts in the main dining room at 7:00 AM, so you might hear some noise above starting then. However, few people go to the main dining room for breakfast, so this should not be a major issue.

A number of years ago, I stayed in Cabin 5005 and absolutely loved. Very quiet. Would love to stay in that cabin again.

Thank you for the information.

I think Deck 5 looks as good a choice as any, unless I can talk myself into justifying the extra for a balcony cabin:cool:

We are cruising on the Norwegian Spirit in December. Which side is better for views: starboard or port? What about Cabin 9102 mid-ship balcony?
