How comfortable are the beds?

[deb4kids]

My co-worker just got off the Pride. She had a great time, but she said the beds were very hard/firm. Is this the same for all of the fleet? Going on the Destiny in July.

We just got off the Glory this past Sunday. Our beds were concave! There was a visible scoop in the middle. Oddly, it was still very comfortable.

The beds on my last two Carnival cruises were OUTSTANDING and I hate hard beds. I think they've really upped their quality in bedding with the last ships, but I don't know if the older ships are getting the upgrades too.

Just got off the Spirit. My bed was AWFUL. Lumpy and woke up with terrible backaches. The other beds in the room were comfortable. So I complained. First to the room steward who tried to fix it, then to customer relations. They had a pad put on the bed and it was fine. so if the bed is not to your liking, things can be done.

We consider them to be very firm and very comfortable.

They are almost as good as my bed at home.... We have been on 4 Carnival cruises and never had a bad mattress yet. They are a lot better than the beds on Princess, those are really bad.

We have a relatively high-dollar bed at home, and we find the beds on Carnival to be very, very comfortable. We have no problems at all with them.

We were just on the Elation and this was my 3rd Carnival cruise in 18 months. It sure seemed to me that the mattress was a lot firmer that the ones in the past.

 

I found out 3 days before we set sail that I have a broken back and as soon as I layed on the bed the first night I felt like I might as well be on the floor it was so stiff.

 

Our room steward added 2 down comforters folded in half to my side and that seemed to make it a little better. But meds helped, too LOL

I think they are the most comfortable beds I have ever slept on. Not sure if it is the bed itself or the fact that from drinking, the sun and the rocking of the boat that makes it seem that way. lol

Our most recent CCL sailing was on the Dream (last July) and the beds were AWESOME. I guess, like food tastes, it's subjective. We thought they were very soft. It's one of the reasons we look forward to Carnival. We're truly on vacation, as it's the BEST sleep we ever experience.:)

I always found them to be surprisingly comfortable.

I thought the bed on the Conquest was to DIE for. I hope the ones on the Ecstasy are has wonderful.

Eight of our nine Carnival cruises, we have had the most comfortable beds. The only ship we did not enjoy was last month, on the Pride. We both woke us and our backs hurt. We slept good, but just the aches and pains in the morning.

[mzloolue]

The last two cruises, Elation and Triumph, the matresses were so hard they hurt my slightly arthritic hip and made it difficult to sleep.

 

I got more accustomed to it after a few days, but next time, this saturday :), if the bed is uncomfortable I am going to find the steward and ask for a pad.

[maldenmusic]

I've cruised on the Elation, Fantasy and Triumph and i loved the beds in each one.

[sparkscruiser]

Getting ready for my platinum cruise and have found that almost every bed has been great with the exception of the Pride.......

now if they would only add sleep number beds I would be in heaven!

I have pretty bad insomnia and I always sleep like a rock on cruises. My bed on carnival has always been comfortable. (and I love the bedding). Do keep in mind that waking up in the morning sore or stiff may not always be due to the bed. Did you lug you luggage/carry-on around? Walk more than usual on an excursion? Take the stairs more than you normally would? Take a long flight to your port? A lot of things could be a cause. Especially those of us that may not be in the best of shape or ahem over a certain age. (My age would definately be over that certain age.)

I have many many back problems and the beds are acceptable for me - better than many hotels but nothing at all like my bed at home.

Was on the Ecstacy last year and found the bed very comfy. The only issue I had was the layout of the room, the head of the bed was not against a wall, and I like to prop my pillow up a bit. Of couse my wife had one of the closets to prop hers up on. But hey, it's Susan's world and I just rent space in it..:)

Have a balcony on the Conquest this year. Should be great.

My beds on the Fantasy and the Elation have been very comfortable!

[seacat66]

on my last cruise, last fall, on the valor, my bed was so comfy!!!!!

i got home and ordered the pillows from carnival's web site. i so wanted to order the bed too, but it was out of my price range.
