sdmike Posted August 24, 2012 #527 Share Posted August 24, 2012 This may have been answered before and if so, I'm sorry, but there's SO MUCH information on here! It looks like the cabins on the ends of the "bump out" have much larger balconies? Is that true? We have 13209, 13217 (end of bump), 13221, 13225 & 13227. So it looks like 13217's balcony is 2 times larger than the others (according to the plans) and that 13209 is a little larger too. That would be nice if we can get the partition open as I'm in 13221 and my brother is in 13217 so my kids could play out on the combined balconies when I'm trying to keep them a little more "contained". Yep. You see it right on the deck plans. The few rooms on each side of the hump (the transition rooms) have larger balconies. The size varies, but they are larger. You can read threads on opening balconies. There seems to be a bit of inconsistent policy around when you can and cannot open them. It used to be no problem, but some are reporting a new safety policy that keeps them from being opened while at sea. It seems that this policy is enforced sometimes and not others by the steward.

luckyprincess Posted September 22, 2012 #533 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Wow, you guys are really good, lol! I have 0 sense of space or rooms on board these things :) I saw that someone was good enough to show where 12103 was and that the balcony was a bit bigger. I'm looking at 12103 and 12104 because my family has only ever sailed on RCCL and we have done hump balcony cabins for the bigger balcony. Is this comparable? Also, do the lifeboats really get in the way? I don't think I often looked straight down leaning over my railing so I don't know if I would be affected by that view? If I'm sitting in my chair will I have a straightforward view of the ocean and horizon? Thank you so much whoever knows in advance!! Can't WAIT to try Epic!

canadiancruiser13 Posted September 22, 2012 #534 Share Posted September 22, 2012 (edited) hi can anyone tell me if my cabin is exposed too,its 12014, thanks ever so muchjayne My wife and I were on the Epic a couple years ago. We had the same cabin that you booked, here is a picture from the cabin looking out on to the balcony. It' a cove balcony - we found the was little to no wind while the ship was in transit from one island to another.

ashg84 Posted January 18, 2013 #535 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Hi All, I booked a cruise in June on the Epic. The room booked was Stateroom Balcony BTY, Category BF. We have not received a room # yet and a bit weary of where our room may be situated. Can anyone shed some light on this area of the ship and if the balconies are covered or not and whether the lifeboats are directly below? I am afraid of the "unknown" and feel I may need to upgrade to ensure I can get a better room. In anyones experience is it possible to request a particular room if we are stuck in this area? Many thanks, we are first time cruisers! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odesitka70 Posted March 11, 2014 #538 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Hi we have booked spa balcony 14141 for Oct 11 sailing, any info on coverage or lifeboat restricted view? This thread is brilliant!!!

sdmike Posted March 11, 2014 #539 Share Posted March 11, 2014 You have a balcony 50% larger than other balconies. Your bed is by the door, with the couch closer to the balcony. Great room. Close to the spa/gym and rear stairs/elevators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdmike Posted March 28, 2014 #544 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Hello All! Cruising soon and just got my cabin number! Does anyone know anything about this cabin? (8120) Looks like people are getting some good information about there cabins on this thread:) Thanks in advance! There are links in my signature area to information on Epic rooms, including which have uncovered balconies and which are "hull balconies". Since 8120 isn't at the front of the ship it won't be a hull balcony, but it might be uncovered. Check the link You can also look at the Epic deck plan and see where your bed and couch are located in the room. The rooms have curved walls. The widest part of the room is where the bed it, while the couch is in the narrower section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisersssm Posted November 14, 2014 #545 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Does anyone know if NCL Epic - Deck 8 - Room 8095 Balcony is covered or not - can you see the water - is it a good room for our first cruise! Really worried now that I've read about some horrors of not having a view or covered in. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clarkfam Posted November 30, 2015 #548 Share Posted November 30, 2015 If you had a choice of floor, which floor would you choose? 8, 9, 10 We booked 8069 and from what I have been reading, not a good choice. We have other rooms that we can choose (Mini-suite) mid or forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love2cruz1970 Posted December 28, 2017 #549 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Hello I'm new to Cruise Critic..:) I'm sailing on NCL Epic room 12181 this will be my 1st time sailing with NCL. Wondering if anyone can tell me how this balcony room is? I was offered an upgrade is it worth the extra money to move to a Mini Suite or the Havens spas?
