Kathy with a K Posted August 8, 2012 #1 Share Posted August 8, 2012 We are considering the Oceanview cabin on Marina for a Baltic cruise as we probably wouldn't use a Verandah since this itinerary is port intensive and likely to be chilly. The Oceanview cabins are directly over the casino. Can anyone tell me if we will hear any noise from the casino? Any other comments on these cabins? Thanks for any input you can provide.

Kathy My first thought is that your questions are moot, for two reasons: #1 The Oceanview cabins generally sell out instantly #2 The Casino on the Marina is particularly quiet Other than that, the soundproofing between the decks is excellent and the Oceanview Cabins are beautiful, light filled and spacious, so go for it!

oceanbill457 Posted August 9, 2012 #4 Share Posted August 9, 2012 We were in an Oceanview on Marina with no noise. The casino is like a tomb, and I am a noisy craps player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrammieK Posted August 9, 2012 #5 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Do they have a craps table on the new ships? That would make my husband so happy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oceanbill457 Posted August 9, 2012 #6 Share Posted August 9, 2012 They had a craps table on Marina last summer. Unfortunately only single odds. Hopefully that has changed on Riviera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kathy with a K Posted August 13, 2012 Author #7 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Thanks all for your input, particuarly JimandStan. We are planning ahead for the 2014 Baltics cruise which should be available soon. I look every day. So hopefully we do have a shot at the Oceanview. I would normally take a Verandah, but I think its a waste in the Baltics. Thanks, Kathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calvin81 Posted August 14, 2012 #8 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Curious what month you are looking at. We went in July and had everything from 60 in Stockholm to 100 in St. Petersburg. Many days were lovely and we did enjoy our veranda. It was probably in the mid 70's for the majority of the cruise. Yes, it's port intensive, but after a full day it was lovely to relax on the veranda before dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have talked to one other person who had great weather, but have talked to many who said it was cold. Glad you had great weather. Hope we do as well. I would rather have great weather and be sorry I took the Oceanview than have cold weather and be happy about no Verandah. We shall see. First I have to actually get the cabin.

Barrheadlass Posted October 18, 2012 #10 Share Posted October 18, 2012 We will have an OV under the casino on our upcoming Riviera cruise. Do I need to worry about noise? From the postings, I don't think so, but... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen of DaNile Posted February 12, 2013 #12 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Thanks for asking this question for us. We're looking at booking next year's Viking Trails in this cabin category so I guess we'd better jump on this since bookings open tomorrow.:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did the Baltics with Renaissance in May 2001 and had beautiful weather most of the time. We certainly used our veranda a fair amount of the time. Not so much to sit and bask, but for viewing the scenery. Granted, weather may have changed since then ... although I've heard something about global warming ... Of course there is no predicting just what kind of weather YOU will encounter. Mura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
