Spirit vs. Majesty cabin size

[clm101798]

I keep reading people's posts that say how tiny the cabins on the Spirit are. I am confused. I don't remember what catagory I had on the Dawn to compare room sizes to but the room I have on the Spirit is listed at 149 s.f.

 

When I was on the Majesty I had a Superior room and found it quite a comfortable size for the three of us. DD had plenty of room to play on the floor. The superior room is listed at 145 s.f. My sister and BF had a regular room. Now THAT was TINY! 108 s.f!

 

So from what I can see the room on the Spirit will be about the same size as the Superior cabin on the Majesty and I wouldn't call that tiny. Do the rooms on the Spirit measure bigger than they are/feel?

The Spirit's cabins are not the smallest, or are they the largest. I was just as comfortable in a Spirit balcony as a Sun balcony.

We are a family of 4 and have been on the Majesty 2 times ( cat. DD, Deck 4, Superior Ocean View, 145 sq. feet) and the Spirit once (Cat. KK, inside deck 5, 149 sq. feet).

 

We thought the rooms of the Majesty were better for us (2 upper and 2 lower while the Spirit was 3 lower and 1 upper). It may have just been that extra bed in the middle of the floor taking up all the floor space. We also went from an an outside cabin to an inside. We did look in the outside cabins and they seemed similar to the Majesty.

 

If you do not have 4 in your cabin, the Spirit cabins probably will seem similar to the Majesty. It felt as though the Spirit cabin was longer (more narrow) than the Majesty.

 

Although, The bathroom on the Spirit was bigger, especially the shower and it had a sliding door instead of the curtain.

As you can see, one size doesn't fit all. In some cabins, the Spirit fares well, in others it doesn't. But that can be said for every NCL ship.
