My Sincere Thank You

[DTT]

Thank you so much to all of you who replied to my question regarding the concierge class versus regular balcony. I have decided to take your device and have booked a B3 with the extended balcony.. The person from Oceana assured me I would not hear the noise from the dining room. Could you out there in Cruise critic Ville tell me if this is the case? Are those B3's on deck seven noisy and will they affect my enjoyment of the cruise?

Thanks again for all your help and expertise! By the way, the ship I am sailing on is the Riviera and it is a transatlantic cruise.

Will you be choosing the aft stateroom or forward? We were in an extended balcony aft of Riviera and there was no noise. The balcony was very nice and you should request sun loungers. J

We were in 7114 & heard no noise from the dining room

 

I am sure others would be the same

In this photograph, the large windows on deck 6 (just behind the lifeboats) are those of the Grand dining Room. The deck 7 extended veranda cabins are, in effect, on the roof of the Grand Dining Room. Given the decorous ambiance of that space, there is not much chance of noise from below.

We had no noise from the dining room but experienced noise from what I think was them dropping the anchor in the mornings when we pulled into port.

You are probably correct about the thrusters. We didn’t notice any noise when we stayed in an A1 but definitely did in the B3. That’s the only two cabin types we have stayed in so I don’t know if it affects other cabins or not but my husband said he would prefer not to stay in a B3 again. I liked the extended balcony so I probably would.

We heard no noise from the dining room. We have always had an aft cabin

We were in 7108 and heard no noise at all.

Again, thank you very much for all your expertise. I feel confident in booking an aft B3 .Looking forward to a wonderful Transatlantic April 2019.

usually the noise issue is when your are UNDER the dining areas & pool deck

 

that said on the R ships being OVER the show lounge can be an issue for some

 

they have rehearsals during the day then the show at night until about 10:30pm

I hope it's okay as I'll be there in a couple of weeks.
