BuckeyeMark Posted April 4, 2023 #1 Share Posted April 4, 2023 We're headed out on the Beyond in 2024 (first time on an Edge class ship - really excited!) and we think the bed by the closet/bathroom is a much better arrangement than the bed over by the Infinite Veranda. That's just personal preference but it looks better to us so that is the kind of cabin we want. So how do we get that furniture arrangement? If you go to book, the cabin pictures and gallery views show rooms set up either way - no matter what class of cabin you choose! Ideas? I don't think we could ask the steward to move the bed so we need to get this right when we book. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to look at the deck plans to determine where the bed placement is. Look at the deck plans on Celebrity's website. Look at each cabin and the walls. Where you see a slight indent is where the bed is going to be. If the indent is closer to the window, then the bed will be by the window. If the indented line of the cabin wall is closer to the middle of the room, then the bed will be near the bathroom. As you can see the deck plans don't draw in the cabin bathroom, which is why the indent seems to be in the middle, but that's because the bathroom is supposed to be right by the entrance.

cw2go Posted April 4, 2023 #3 Share Posted April 4, 2023 What's you stateroom number and I can look for you. I am sure others will explain better than me but if the bump in the room on the diagram is towards the end by IV that's where the beds are placed. Since you want them near the bathrooms you'll want the opposite. patty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare DaKahuna Posted April 4, 2023 #4 Share Posted April 4, 2023 @BuckeyeMark You are correcrt. You need to make sure that you book a room with the configuration you want. They do not re-arrange the location of the beds in staterooms, just whether the beds are together (single bed) or separate (two beds). IIRC you need to pick one of the infinite veranda's with the square block in the room. This indicates that there is occupancy for a third passenger and those are always with the beds by the bathroom and the couch by the window. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here on Deck 8 on the Beyond there are many cabins with their beds by the bathroom that don't have a little square. But those cabins DO have that indent in the cabin walls in the middle. That's the most accurate way to determine bed placement o E-class ships. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am just casually reading this thread, but I still want to make sure that I am reading this right: If there is a square block in the room, then the bed is by the bathroom. (If I am in Indiana, then I am in the USA). However if the bed is by the bathroom, it is not true that it will always be marked by a square block. (If I am in the USA, then it doesn't necessarily mean I am in Indiana). So one can still play it safe and choose a cabin with a square block in it and be assured that the bed is by the bathroom. Correct? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So in the deck plan above cabin 8300 and 8302 and 8304 would have the bed by the veranda. Cabins 8277 and 8275 would have the bed by the bathroom. Am I correct?

No I think you;re looking at it backwards. The indent is where the bed goes since it allows for enough room for the bed and space to walk by at the foot of the bed. Generally the cabins alternate and fit together like a puzzle. So #'s 8300,8304,and 8277 have the bed by the Veranda while #'s 8302 & 8275 have the bed by the bathroom since the indent is closer to the middle of the cabin the the deck plan.

Correct? Yes, you're understanding the thread correctly. Always have the third bed/sofa by the window allows for more space, which means the main beds will always be by the bathroom in the front.

Ah - that makes sense. By "indent" I was thinking of the protrusion INTO the room but of course you can't put a bed there. No room. So the bed goes in the widest part of the room to make space to get by at the foot of the bed. Correct? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: This type of cabin design allows the ship to hold more cabins since each cabin is narrower for 2/3 of the cabin and a recess in the remaining third to have enough space for the bed. I think cruiselines are rethinking this design since NCL's newest Prima Class Ships no longer have this indent and the cabins are back to the old design with a full rectangular cabin shape.

TMLAalum Posted April 4, 2023 #13 Share Posted April 4, 2023 Also you can count forward or backwards from cabins that have the square, although that gets a bit tricky with AQ cabins since those don' sleep more than two. We prefer bed by bath and were lucky enough to snag the only DPV available on Deck 8 forward on our recently booked Edge cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the walls of each cabin to see where the recess is located is easier and 100% accurate. Edited April 4, 2023 by kwokpot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted April 4, 2023 #15 Share Posted April 4, 2023 The cabins are modules of 2. Each module has a cabin with the bed by the bath and one with the bed by the veranda. They alternate; by bath, by veranda, by bath, by veranda, etc. if you start counting from a cabin with a square, which is bed by bath, then the next cabin will have bed by veranda, bath, veranda. As mentioned, not all cabins with the bed by the bath have a square as not all accommodate 3/4. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare hcat Posted April 5, 2023 #17 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Not familiar with Reflection / changes... We are trying ti get the plans for Ascent,,. On EDGE we had the bed by the bifold doors which we kept open to make the narrow room a bit bigger..DH had to use part of the IV when getting out of the bed. Having the bed by bath will give a more spacious seating area...esp if bifolds are kept open... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare hcat Posted April 6, 2023 #22 Share Posted April 6, 2023 DaKahuna Thanks for the very clear deck plans .Our IV AQ cabin has no black box shown but diagram shows the bump in for the bed close to the bath, .That would be great..close to the bathroom and a more open feel in the narrow stateroom. From a past cruise on EDGE, the IV had the low to the ground "divan" style couch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volk904 Posted April 7, 2023 #23 Share Posted April 7, 2023 Look. On the good deck plans. You can tell where the bed is by where the notch is. The notch is where the beds go and every other cabin has the notch next to the veranda and the others close to the closet. Go together like a puzzle.
