Will a laptop fit in the room safe?

[puppyluv1]

We are booked on Splendor in a concierge suite and Mariner in a penthouse.  Does anyone know if a laptop will fit in the safe?

A normal laptop should fit fine....and big gaming laptop no.

For what it is worth, we have spent over 200 days on Regent ships always with 2 laptops, readers, cellphones and  several cameras. (What can I say but DH and I don’t share?) We have never locked the electronics up. Jewelry, cash and passports, yes, not other things. We always stay in veranda suites. Never had anything stolen. In case you are wondering, we usually do months long trips on cruises or in our RV and blog and do travel books.

Agreed - in over 500 nights there has never been anything missing - I once left cash in a pocket of some pants and sent them to laundry. I got a call from the front desk with the money waiting for me.

IMO, there's no reason to put your laptop(s) in the safe. All we ever put in it our safe is cash. We've never had anything stolen and we've gone on many Regent cruises.

Agree…we never lock anything in the safe except passports, jewelry and wallets.  My husband once thought he lost his wallet ashore at a port. Fortunately, it fell out of his pocket in the closet. Housekeeping found it…nothing was missing. 
Traveling on Regent many years….nothing ever missing.

Agree.  Over 250 nights on Regent and have never locked a laptop, iPad or phone in a safe.  Wallet, jewelry and passports, yes.

Thanks everyone.  I definitely would not expect the staff on Regent to be anything but honorable.  I only asked because I may need to bring my work laptop and we have rules about keeping your laptop with you at all times when traveling.  Locking it in the safe would be a good alternative.  Thanks again!

A suggestion… if it’s a work laptop, when you are not using, bring it to the Reception desk for safekeeping.

I've traveled with my work laptop before and never locked it up.  Never had any issues in over a decade of cruises.

 

My guess is that a work laptop would be a bit on the larger size (I know mine is) and I don't think it would fit.  If you're just trying to meet company policy, maybe a cable loop lock would suffice?

Thank you for the good suggestions!

The safe shown on splendor below is 15” wide. Maybe 12” deep. Easily will accommodate most laptops.

We've never used the safe getting close to 200 days on board.

We never put it in the save, nor are cell phones.  Never had a problem.

We use the safe for wallets, passports, watches and jewelry, etc...

 

Thing is, we usually forget to lock it.  🙂

 

Never had a problem in over a hundred nights, either.

I've only used to safe to keep things safe from me losing them.
