Elation Inside Cabin Recommendation, Please

[deanman02]

Would someone kindly suggest a "good" cabin for elderly people who are not fussy? We generally prefer upper decks.

On elation I get the cabins across from the grand suites. It is likely you’ll get a good cabin steward. I’m on the ecstasy now and our steward is not doing the suites for some reason but this is the first time I’ve experienced this. He is doing great though.

 

The other reason is that the showers seem to be slightly larger than normal.

 

If there are only 2 of you then pick a cabin that only fits 2 rather than 3. I didn’t do that this time and there is a trundle bed under my bed which means less room to store our suitcases.

 

Happy cruising 😎

We have been booking cabins on Lido to be close to morning coffee and late night snacks, but Elation has no cabins on Lido. If you want an inside, check Verandah deck. There are 9 inside cabins on Verandah. If that does not work, you would have to go down to Empress deck which is an all stateroom deck. Good luck!

Our favorites are in the aft near the elevators. This brings us up into Tiffanies buffet. Very handy!

These tips have been very helpful. Thank you!

Our favorite section on the Fantasy class ships are Empress deck, cabin numbers 130~160 (between the aft elevators and the central elevators, behind the art gallery). Some say that's not a good area because you're under the galley, but we've never noticed galley noise. The noise of people running down the hallways is always way more noticeable to us.

How about the sideways cabins? Friends love those.

I feel like the sideways cabins if heavy waves tip you side to side not end to end like puts me to sleep

 

My favorite are lido cabins, but I book a porthole if i can get one for same price as inside.

If you’re an early sleeper don’t book deck 7 (empress) forward. You can hear noise when shows are

going on in the main lounge.

On the Elation, get the cabins on the new deck. The Grand deck maybe? Awesome cabin, there’s even a couch.

Also I’d avoid the riviera deck forward. There’s up to an hour of noise each port morning there. R1 on Elation was my first cruise cabin. I thought first deck first room would be easy to remember.

I never thought about that. We booked one of those cabins in January. Even when the ship isn't really rocking, there's still that ever-so-slight back & forth motion of the bed that rocks me to sleep. Now it's going to be a side-to-side motion. My body is going to be so confused. LOL

 

FYI to those answering the OP...this thread is 2+ years old. 😉
