Kilkenny Cruise Posted November 28, 2011 #1 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Hi folks My travel agent has offer to upgrade us to a promenade view cabin and was wondering what peoples view is. Herself isn't that pushed on them. I am not sure myself either TA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAT GIRL Posted November 28, 2011 #2 Share Posted November 28, 2011 I would definately take an upgrade to the PR. You at least get a view of something and I think the room feels larger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigeagle12 Posted November 28, 2011 #3 Share Posted November 28, 2011 We have had 3 promenade rooms on Adventure, Mariner, and Explorer .. we LOVE them .. next best thing to a balcony. We always get deck 8 .. good view and have heard complaints of noise on deck 6 from the venues on deck 5. Drapes block all light from the Promenade and rooms are quiet except during parades. Definitely a step up from an inside room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
will773 Posted November 29, 2011 #4 Share Posted November 29, 2011 I would take the promenade cabin as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krispi Posted November 29, 2011 #5 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Definitely go with the Promenade room! The window seat makes it feel more spacious. You will enjoy having the window during the day, and at night it gets very quiet and dark for sleeping. I also enjoyed being able to watch the farewell parade in my jammies from my room just before bed, instead of having to come up and change afterward. Having the window meant I was able to get to sleep earlier! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IKE Posted November 29, 2011 #7 Share Posted November 29, 2011 I would definitely go for the Promenade. Personally, I love them. Enjoy people watching and have always selected decks 7 & 8 no noise. Have heard also Deck 6 can be noisey depending if You are over one of the Pubs or lounges. Look at the deck layout before you select your cabin. I always do.

phoenix1181 Posted November 30, 2011 #8 Share Posted November 30, 2011 I'd stick with the inside. In the Promenade cabin, you have to keep the curtains closed or people in the cabin across from you can see in. You really can't see that well if you want to watch the parades. People watching is only okay. And........... the set up is very bad. You'll be tripping over each other the entire cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hancogran Posted November 30, 2011 #9 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Loved our promenade cabin when we sailed on Adventure! :D Go for it. I'm sure you won't be disappointed. It's great to sit on the little bench they have by the window and watch the action on the promenade! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjb415 Posted November 30, 2011 #10 Share Posted November 30, 2011 I would definately take an upgrade to the PR. You at least get a view of something and I think the room feels larger. I would select a non-connecting, port side, Promenade Cabin on Deck 6 or 7 with a view of the Promenade Cafe. These cabins are not up too high and have great views of happenings in the cafe.

You have totally squashed my high excitement of my first PR cabin! :D:p At least its handicap accessible so tripping over each other wont be an issue. I will have to remember about the curtains for certain times like getting out of the shower! :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
