lea Posted February 12, 2008 #1 Share Posted February 12, 2008 We just got our room assignment from RC Grandeur of the seas. In buying an interior cabin they just assign you something. Ours just assigned is at the very very front of the ship. I think I need to ask for something in the middle of the ship. Can anyone give me any advice on this? Thank you so much for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you so much for your help My very first cruise was in a cabin at the front and the only problem we had was if we were in a tender port and they let out the anchor at 6:00 a.m, it can be a rude awakening! Also, it's a bit rougher ride up there compared to the middle of the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovelife Posted February 12, 2008 #3 Share Posted February 12, 2008 I have stayed in various areas and found the most stable part of the shp is in the middle and on a low deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiserking Posted February 13, 2008 #4 Share Posted February 13, 2008 If at all possible it would be best if you could switch your cabin to as close to midship as possible. If your voyage encounters any rough seas you will definitely feel a lot of it with a cabin near the bow. Good Luck. Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

98Charlie Posted February 16, 2008 #7 Share Posted February 16, 2008 A lot depends on the individual. We've had cabins forward, aft, up, & down. You will generally experience less motion being low and midship. However, we enjoy the motion of the ship as we drift off to sleep (or crash if we've been out late :)). So we will take a forward or aft cabin over an equal midship one. Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lea Posted February 17, 2008 Author #8 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Thanks for the question Serene. When we made our reservations at the price we paid we were just given a guarantee of getting a room. We just recently were told what we had been assigned to. - Which was the front of the ship. I did not know what recourse we had if any if we were seriously interested in changing or whether we would just end up paying more to go somewhere else. However, I'm thinking that the front of the ship may not be all that bad After all -we're cruising right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
