Rare bobolz Posted March 7, 2018 #1 Share Posted March 7, 2018 We are booked in a room outside of laundry room. Has anyone stayed in one of those rooms and is there problems with noise? Thx for any responses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helenandfrank Posted March 7, 2018 #2 Share Posted March 7, 2018 (edited) We were on Deck 8 last year so not near a laundry ... but there are several threads which reassure everyone about the laundry noise issue (below is an example [cut and paste] from elsewhere in the Forum). It might be worth doing some other searches, but I don't think it is a problem.... The strange thing about the Viking ships is just how little of the noise from the corridors you can actually hear inside the cabins. We stepped out our door one morning and were surprised at the amount of the activity in the corridor; it was so quiet in our cabin that we thought the corridor was empty. The same goes for the laundry rooms. They are not contiguous to any cabin. You can't tell if anyone is inside unless you open the door and walk in. You would expect a lot of spill over from the elevator and stairwell vestibules, but there really isn't. Walking down the corridor you have to be in within a couple of feet before you hear anything. That's one of the reasons I had no qualms choosing cabin 4082 for our next cruise. Edited March 7, 2018 by helenandfrank italics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The doorplate on the floor was extremely noisy and I tried to take care not to step on it. I felt horrible for the people across from it. I sure hope it didn't bother them every time someone walked in and out and didn't pay attention to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Avery Posted March 7, 2018 #5 Share Posted March 7, 2018 We are currently in 4046 on the Sun. Right across from the laundry. Absolutely no noise and DW loves the convenience of not having to schlep clothes to the other side of the ship. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare bobolz Posted March 8, 2018 Author #6 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Thank you everyone for your replies. Good to hear we shouldn’t have issues . I agree Jim not having to schlep down the hallway to get laundry is a plus! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffp66 Posted March 8, 2018 #7 Share Posted March 8, 2018 That's good to know. We'll be in cabins 3054 & 3052 on the Star, directly across. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare bobolz Posted March 21, 2018 Author #8 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Jim - just curious , what room is directly across from the door to the laundry? You said you were in 4046, we are in 4052 and 4054. The ship plan appears that it is directly across from a total of 3 rooms :4046-4052.

Jeffp66 Posted March 21, 2018 #9 Share Posted March 21, 2018 On the deck plan it looks like 4052 is directly across, but the other 2 are further away. Sent from my SM-G935T using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Vineyard View Posted March 22, 2018 #10 Share Posted March 22, 2018 We are assigned 4052 as well on the Sea. Being a light sleeper I wonder about this as well. Not sure what the laundry room hours are so maybe it will be of little concern. I am hoping. And yes, 4052 looks like it is directly across from the laundry room door? I have been told not to worry, and that is truly what i would like! I do know that Viking is well insulated and much better than other lines we have been on, but there are times when you can hear doors or TV’s in adjacent rooms.
