Cabin Temp

Hi All

At what temp do you think a cabin is to hot,

on the Crown the temp in our cabin was measured at 22 degrees c

for me this is to hot for a good nights sleep,

just checked my house temp we are sitting with doors open

and inside temp is 16 degrees c

what to do folks think,

cabin air con was a max cold air flow setting was moved by engineer to max

yours Shogun

I set my thermostat to 64 degrees F, which is about 18 C.

22 C would be a bit warm. On the Coral, they had a thermostat that set down to cooler (not max) and it worked fine. That was an inside cabin.

In a hot climate we keep the cabin temperature gauge at the minimum it will go. Not sure what it reads.

Why did the engineer turn it up?

Wow, people who like it cold! Me, not so much. I generally like it around 24C. I"d be okay at 22C.

I recall setting the thermostat quite low in a cabin I was sharing because it was hot when we got there. I left to explore. An engineer was was leaving the cabin as I got back. Apparently I had totally misunderstood the thermostat settings and had actually turned up the temperature.

22 would be way too warm for me. The colder the better. I have noticed that cabin temp can really differ from ship to ship.:D

Hi Caber

The engineer came because I requested him to attend the cabin.

Shogun, We normally keep the cabin thermometer right in the center, or a step below, without any problems.

At home in winter months we keep the night time temp at 16C (60F). In summer it is what it is. Were we live we hardly ever need to turn the air conditioner on.

We live in Hawaii so we do not have heat, only air. I hate to be cold so 22 to 24 sounds good to me.

At home 18-19C, 15C at night.

I hope the cabin temp can be adjusted as we usually keep cooler during the day, warmer during night. We'll be on Grand.

In the summer, I keep my home A/C (when I use it) at 77-78F (25-26C) during the day. Always open up at night. In the winter, I keep the heat at 67-68F (20C) during the day, 65F (18C) at night.

22C is way too hot for me. We're on the Crown shortly, so I hope we can get our cabin temp down lower than that. I don't recall having that trouble on other Princess ships.

At what temperature do I think a cabin is too hot? Probably around 27.

I think 22 is lovely, 24 would be quite nice on a warm weather cruise - actually on any weather cruise. 16 is inhumane! I'd have to wear 3 layers of clothes at those temperatures - and wool socks!

I have found that recently they keep the temp warmer probably an economic move to save fuel...very uncomfortable !

It probably has more to do with where your cabin is on the ship. Both of our Grand cruises this year were very warm in the cabin for the first 3 days and we had it set on the coolest setting. It finally cooled down by the 4th day. It might be cooler in the front and works it way toward the rear? It's just that we had no control over the temp for the first three whole days and our cabin was toward the aft.

We live on the coast just south of San Francisco where the weather is pretty much always between 50-60F. We've gotten used to it and prefer to sleep in a pretty cool room with the windows open year round. We almost never need to turn on the heat and there is no need for air conditioning; in fact our house has no AC.

On my first 2. cruises, the ships were so cold (which is good for me) that whenever I would open a door to go outside, you would hear the change in air pressure. Also if you had a camera open at the time, the screen would fog. this stopped happening as of cruise #3. I can only assume as part of cost savings they do not cool the ships like they used to :(

The colder the better for us. In the summer we can tolerate sleeping with just a top sheet at 22C in our home. If we use a light blanket, then the A/C is set to 20C.

In the winter, we don't use the heater unless it gets to about 12C. We just pile on more clothes and blankets.

If it's 23C as the lowest temp on a cruise... I'm calling the Engineer to get if lowered! We've done it before, and they were able to fix it.

As cold as possible for me, I have trouble sleeping even at 18C.

Even in my apartment in the middle of winter when it's -18C outside I don't have the heating on, the heat coming up through the floor from the downstairs apartment is more than enough for me.

I hate being too warm. We almost always try to lower cabin temps and don't have too much success. I am going to remember to call the engineering department this time. Speaking of temps, when we went to bed last night, the outside temp was 20 C. and this morning when I woke up, ith the duvet up to my shoulders, the thermometer read 6 C. hat is quite a steep drop. Fall must be here.

Sorry Shogun,

I misread the original post. Your cabin was too hot although it was turned down so the engineer reduced the temperature, am I correct?

I can`t sleep if it is too warm. Fortunately we don`t often have that problem at home, although this summer was especially good.

Hi Caber,

We called the engineer because we were way to hot,

so he came and checked the air con,

he was producing a temp of 22 degrees which he was happy with

we were not, as for us that's a summers day, not a nice temp for

sleeping

yours Shogun

I live in Chico, CA.

In the summer the outside temps range from 88° F (31° C) to 110° F (43° C). In the daytime we cool our house to 82° F (almost 22° C). Summers we sleep with all the windows open and the air conditioner off. Night time temps range from 77° F (25° C) - 88° F (31° C).

In the winter temps run from 32° F (0° C) at night - 68° F (20° C) during the day. In the day time we heat the house to 68° F (20° C). At night the heater is always off.

We've always been able to keep our cabin temperature quite comfortable on Princess ships. :)

I find that temperature feels different, whether you have furnace or air conditioner on :confused:. In the winter with the furnace on, it’s warm air moving around the room/house, so you don’t need the thermostat set too high, 18 - 20*C is high enough. In the summer with the AC on, it’s cool air moving around the room/house, so you may need to set the thermostat higher, depending on the people in locale, maybe even as high as 24 - 25*C.

My DW feels cold from a slight breeze at 24 - 25*C, and it turns out, many people feel that way :(
