Rhapsody of the Seas Suites

We are looking to book a suite on Rhapsody next spring. We noticed that the Royal Suite, Owner's Suite and Grand Suites appear to be under Windjammer. Can anyone with experience with any of these cabins tell us if you had problems with noise? Any other thoughts on these cabins would also be welcome.

we were just in an Owners a few months ago. very far forward. no issues at all with noise from above at any hour.

Thank you. We usually book Junior suites but DH wants to go bigger for his 50th birthday, Don't understand why you would put the suites under Windjammer. We have dealt with noise under park cafe on some ships and were hoping it wouldn't be too bad on Rhapsody,

Spent a 14 days in GS 8012 last year(near front elevator). Yes, there were times we could hear dragging of tables and chairs, etc. at different hours of the day and night, but it wasn't enough to make us wish we had booked a different cabin or deck. Enjoyed it very much.

We had 8016 last month. It was right below the ice cream machine. Definite noise, but not at night and not enough to wish for another room. Would I book it again?? Not sure

Probably less than just further down where we were last week in JS 8532. We had thumping, scraping, and lots of noise above us when they were cleaning the pool deck area at 2:30 am every night. :o:(

We had OS 8002 last summer and I found the noise to be awful. It is under the galley area and they move trolleys around to approx 1am and then started again around 3am. It woke me up every time. After the 2nd night I mentioned it to the Concierge and he immediately offered my a substantial FCC. My teen daughter did not hear a thing so it depends on how deep you sleep. Would I book again ... don't think so.

Thank you all for your replies. I will share them with DH and let him decide.

I know you're interested in the larger suites, but are there any aft-facing JSs available? DH and I will be celebrating our 20th anniversary on Rhapsody in September, and we ended up going with an aft JS partly because of the noise issues with many of the side-facing suites. I think the extra large balcony will make it special. We're prepared for some noise and vibration when docking, but apparently the aft JSs are generally quiet since they're below the spa.

Our next Rhapsody cruise has us in huge balcony corner aft JS 8596. :hearteyes:

We are considering that also. We have done the corner afts on Enchantment a few times and loved it.

We sailed on Rhapsody mid ship GS (8006) in 2017 and will do so again in April (same deck). Never heard noise and loved the experience of the GS. Have a great cruise.
