Mariner of the Seas - room above Wine Bar?


Recommended Posts

I was on the Mariner, with a promenade view room, and not to far from Vintages (Wine Bar) and the Wig and Gavel (English Pub). If your cruise is anything like mine, you won't have a problem with noise. Vintages is VERY low key and it actually didn't get much traffic while we were there.

 

To be honest, the rooms appear to be sealed off from the promenade, in terms of noise, very well. I remember when they had the parade, which we saw a good deal of from our room and, while you could hear what was gonig on, it was hardly thunderous, or anything that would have kept us awake if we were trying to sleep.

Just got off Mariner on Sunday. I haven't been in one of the cabins above the Promenade, but they will need to be well soundproofed if you have a crowd like us at the Wig and Gavel. Jimmy Blakemore was the entertainment from 10 to 1 on 5 of the nights. We were all very into singing along with Jimmy! Had a fabulous time. But, as I was walking back from the ladies room at the end of the Promenade one night, I realized just how loud that singing was! I hope the rooms are well soundproofed so our great time didn't become someone elses sleepless night.

 

Hopefully someone that was on the Mariner sailing of 2/5, and was in one of thse cabins can provide some feedback.

:o We just went on the Mariner and had a Prominade room at 7581, which was right at the steps for the Casino Royale. We were also near the cross-over that is used to sing from. Our only moise in our room was the first night when they held the first parade at 10:45. The noise from the music was loud enough to bother us in our bed, but it was over in 15 minutes and never again were we bothered by any noise from the outside.

I'm so glad to hear that the noise wasn't an issue for passengers with cabins above the Promenade. I was feeling pretty guilty for how noisy our group was! But we sure were having fun!

 

If Jimmy is still in the Wig and Gavel when you are there, don't miss him. We had a terrific time. I think I heard he was transferring to Freedom.

The wine bar is VERY sedate, except... (here it comes) for the drunken loons that inhabit it before the final seating on the last formal night when they have their martini tasting. Bunch of morons! Oh wait, I was one of those!

 

Seriously it's mostly like a tomb in there.
