Lezbats Posted November 6, 2013 #2051 Share Posted November 6, 2013 SHIP: Solstice CABIN #: 6291 DECK #: 6 CLASS: 2C - Deluxe Ocean View Stateroom with Balcony (Obstructed View) AREA: Aft BED NEAR: Balcony QUIET?: Extremely quiet. BALCONY VIEW: This room is considered an obstructed view however as it is aft there are no lifeboats blocking the view, instead the balcony sits over the Blu Restaurant and therefore is not obstructed looking out, only down (the blue roof continues from the foot of the balcony, there is also a steel ladder sitting on the roof that you can see). BALCONY SIZE: Very good, this balcony is about 1 metre longer than others in the same class. WIND A PROBLEM?: No SOOT A PROBLEM?: No PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: Very quiet room, quite a long walk to the lifts/stairs which may be a problem for some however we did not mind. We would rather the walk and have the larger balcony and piece and quiet. We would stay in this room again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irislady Posted November 7, 2013 #2052 Share Posted November 7, 2013 SHIP: Reflection CABIN #: 9257 & 9289 DECK #: 9 CLASS: C3, Concierge AREA: Aft BED NEAR: Bath QUIET?: Very quiet BALCONY VIEW: Unobstructed. Life boats are visible if you look down, but not a distraction BALCONY SIZE: Average. Liked that they were covered. WIND A PROBLEM?: No SOOT A PROBLEM?: No PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: Their was a water leak from the AC duct between 9257 and 9255. Carpet was soaked between the bathroom door and the bed. Maintenance repaired the leak the same evening it was discovered. The carpet was shop-vacuumed, but still very damp. They put down pool towels between the side of the bed and the bathroom door. The next day while we were on excursion maintenance set up a big blower in 9257 and next door to further dry the carpet. The above the bed storage is somewhat awkward to use for a short person, but it is roomy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compass Rose Monica Posted November 15, 2013 #2054 Share Posted November 15, 2013 (edited) SHIP: Silhouette CABIN #: 1546 DECK #: 11 CLASS: Aqua Class (A2) AREA: Forward, starboard, and right under the beauty salon BED NEAR: Bathroom QUIET?: Yes BALCONY VIEW: Can see the bridge towards the left. No obstructions. BALCONY SIZE: Regular WIND A PROBLEM?: No SOOT A PROBLEM?: No PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: (31 Oct 13 sailing) We liked the location of the cabin being next to the elevators/stairs - easy to get to deck 14 for the elite social hour and the spa area on deck 12. It's located forward of the ship, so we had some walking to do to go aft, but we didn't mind. There was no noise from above or from the cooridor. Our cabin attendant (Venty) and his assistant were wonderful and attentive. I would book this cabin again.

celebrity_cruiser Posted November 15, 2013 #2055 Share Posted November 15, 2013 SHIP: Silhouette CABIN #: 1627 DECK #: 11 CLASS: Aqua Class (A2) AREA: Aft, port, under suites on deck 12 BED NEAR: Veranda QUIET?: Yes, no noise from suite above and no corridor noise BALCONY VIEW: Could not see the bridge as we were located past the area where the elevators are. No obstructions. Every port but one (If I recall) we docked on the port side which allowed for great views and photos from our balcony. We spent a fair amount of time on our balcony (weather was awesome for November). BALCONY SIZE: Regular WIND A PROBLEM?: No SOOT A PROBLEM?: No PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: (31 Oct 13 sailing) We liked this cabin alot, not too far from elevators and since we were Aft we had easy access to Blu. Cabin staff were wonderful (Antonolio and Eddy) and would book this cabin again. DINING: BLU - I thoroughly enjoyed my dining experience in Blu while my wife would have preferred the main dining room due to her not liking seafood. She likes lamb as her go to meal but not 3 times on 1 cruise, more pasta choices would be been better for her. Open seating from 6:00pm to 9:00pm. I ordered from the "Classic Menu" 3 times as I did not like the daily choices but the meals were still very good (NY Strip Loin twice and Salmon once). Breakfasts in Blu were great and should not be missed. This is a full service breakfast so not need to line up for the buffet each morning (6:30am to 9:00am if I recall). Pastries, healthly menu as well as good old bacon and eggs and free fruit juices (ok not free but included in the price of your ticket ). All staff in Blu were fantastic and very attentive. PERSIAN GARDEN: Access is included with this cabin. Happy to answer any questions anyone has regarding this cruise and/or cabin. Email direct or post here.

BALCONY SIZE: Huge! two lounge chairs with foot rests and a table. WIND A PROBLEM?: No SOOT A PROBLEM?: No PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: It's a long walk back to this cabin, but well worth it! There are no neighbor noises, very private, tons of storage space (made me wish I had packed more!) and the afternoon tea was a real treat. If I ever get the chance, I'll book this cabin again!

jenniebnyc Posted November 25, 2013 #2059 Share Posted November 25, 2013 (edited) Anyone else get suite guarantee assignments for Jan 11 sailing? I think we pretty much got the worst room. Never ever doing STE GTY again. We are below Oceanview Cafe. Anyone ever stay in this room or vicinity? How noisy? How bad is the overhang and support poles?

Cruise a holic Posted November 25, 2013 #2060 Share Posted November 25, 2013 (edited) Anyone else get suite guarantee assignments for Jan 11 sailing? I think we pretty much got the worst room. Never ever doing STE GTY again. We are below Oceanview Cafe. Anyone ever stay in this room or vicinity? How noisy? How bad is the overhang and support poles? Thanks I am sure you will be happy. However, if you quickly call Celebrity and another suite in the same (or lesser) category is available, they will switch you. We were lucky on the summit and were able to change. Only if another is available of course- Do not sweat- another time we got assigned a handicapped suite next to the elevator and it was wonderful- and not noisey as I had feared. I only was upset that we didn't have a bathtub- and just a shower- but the cabin was much larger as it was designed for a handicapped person. Our butler and the suite perks were wonderful!

We had more closet hanging/shelf and drawer space in one of their S2 staterooms. On the balcony to the starboard side, there is a HUGE obstruction -- window washing machine. You could not see anything to the starboard side. If you just want to view aft, it was unobstructed. I would never book this cabin again unless it was given to me as a free upgrade.

Only problem was one evening they had some dance party on the pool deck that took place in the evening until midnight. We could hear the noise from above that evening. Didn't bother me, but my wife was irritated. I told her to put in her CD player head phones. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BSinPNS Posted December 1, 2013 #2065 Share Posted December 1, 2013 SHIP: Eclipse CABIN #: 1608 DECK #: 11 CLASS: AQ1 AREA: Midship starboard side hump BED NEAR: Veranda QUIET?: NO!! BALCONY VIEW: Forward and Starboard BALCONY SIZE: extra large with an angle WIND A PROBLEM?:no SOOT A PROBLEM?:no PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: Room is a hump looking forward. Caution: This means there is lots of wind on the veranda. Would suggest an aft facing veranda to avoid the wind issue. Worse was the noise - there are three sources of noise - most annoying is the music played above your room on the pool deck on several nights of a Caribbean cruise. (Not sure if this is a factor in the Baltic/Norway.) Less annoying are the sounds from deck chairs being sorted above the room at 6:30AM and the steward's locker just outside the room. Although the physical location and layout is nice, I would not book this room again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maligator Posted December 1, 2013 #2066 Share Posted December 1, 2013 SHIP: Eclipse CABIN #: 1667 DECK #: 11 CLASS: Sky Suite S2 AREA: Aft, facing rear BED NEAR: bathroom QUIET?: Sort of BALCONY VIEW: Aft BALCONY SIZE: 50% wider than standard WIND A PROBLEM?: not really SOOT A PROBLEM?: no PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: PROS - cabin is 50% wider than standard room, "white noise" from wake, view of sail away, very nice bathroom with rain shower head, tons of storage. CONS - no shade on veranda, positioned 1 deck below Oceanview Bar (some music and talking noise, trash blows down to the veranda, absolutely no privacy on veranda as people can look down directly), shower head is for people 6'3" or under, neighbors' toilet flushes are loud, far from nearest elevator and stair Detailed review coming soon!

runnerandme Posted December 3, 2013 #2068 Share Posted December 3, 2013 (edited) Ship: ECLIPSE Cabin# 1668 Deck # 11 Class: Concierge Area: Stern facing aft Bed: Near balcony Quiet: Yes, very little noise from bar area two decks up. View: nice view of wake Balcony size: smaller than some, but still had two chairs, two footstools and a dining table. WInd: Not much Soot: We had soot on the floor and furniture. Used pool towels to cover them. Room attendant cleaned the area daily. Problems/Comments: We did not care for the uncovered balcony. Bright sun at times, no protection from the rain. Loved the view however. Edited December 3, 2013 by runnerandme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bozisgal Posted December 3, 2013 #2069 Share Posted December 3, 2013 (edited) SHIP: Reflection CABIN #: 9364 DECK #: 9/Panorama CLASS: Concierge AREA: Starboard/Aft BED NEAR: Verandah QUIET?: Yes with the exception of noisy neighbors BALCONY VIEW: Unrestricted/aft/center BALCONY SIZE: Average WIND A PROBLEM?: No SOOT A PROBLEM?: No PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: This was a nice cabin, although I wonder being so far aft if we felt more motion than those midship. It could have been the weather as well. I did sense a "musty" odor in the cabin. Michelle was our attendant with Leroy assisting . . . they were simply the best. It was a good distance to the elevators which really didn't bother us. Storage was limited. Closet access a bit tight.

BALCONY SIZE: standard WIND A PROBLEM?: no SOOT A PROBLEM?: no PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: We didn't realize that the bed was next to the veranda. In future we would make sure that the seating area was next to the veranda, as we prefer the cabin to have the bed closer to the bathroom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jveevers Posted December 7, 2013 #2071 Share Posted December 7, 2013 There is a mine of great information in the spreadsheet and huge thankyou to the person keeping records. Sometimes there is conflicting information on the cabin layout (same ship and cabin). ie. 1014 has the bed reported to be close to Balcony by 1 person and close to Bath by another. I wish there was some way that this could be decided by reference to Celebrity Deck Plans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No glass doors from elevator bank, so you do hear a lot of "traffic" noise and elevators chiming. Also you could hear flushing of toilets from other staterooms. Overall though, nice, ample sized room and it was nice being so close to the elevators (despite the noise) and stairs. Full size table on balcony.
