bay guy Posted August 10, 2012 #1 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Booking Allure for December with DW and daughter and SIL. Two separate cabins. We Like inside cabins so we may sleep in if desired without the sun waking us up early. Any suggestion for best deck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonnaK Posted August 10, 2012 #2 Share Posted August 10, 2012 I would choose deck 8 near the rear elevator/stair lobby. This will allow you easy access to Central Park, 2 flights down to the Boardwalk, 3 flights down to the Promenade. If you want to go someplace towards the front of the ship, like the Solarium or computer rooms, then you can walk through Central Park rather than through a seemingly endless hallway of cabin doors. If deck 8 doesn't work for you, then any deck between 6 and 10 would be convenient. If being near the rear elevators doesn't work for you, then near the forward elevators is a great choice too. In our experience, it is really important to be near the elevators/stairs because it makes getting around this huge ship more efficient and minimizes the amount of walking you have to do. (We are not in top physical condition, and we felt rather exhausted - there were times when we passed up doing something on the other side of the ship because we felt too bothered to walk there.)

Janet524 Posted August 10, 2012 #3 Share Posted August 10, 2012 I agree with DonnaK. We've had staterooms on deck 8 on Allure and Oasis and loved it. It's nice to be able to take a short walk to Park Cafe for AM coffee or breakfast and for snacks in the PM. It's also pleasant to walk thru Central Park when going from one end of the ship to the other instead of thru a hallway where you pass door after door after door.

bajathree Posted August 10, 2012 #4 Share Posted August 10, 2012 On a ship like Oasis/Allure....I would choose higher or lower always leaving a deck between public space....so if you are talking interior....either I would go something like deck 11 or deck 7/8.

marci22 Posted August 11, 2012 #5 Share Posted August 11, 2012 8 was great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare CariBear Posted August 11, 2012 #6 Share Posted August 11, 2012 Deck 8...a walk through Central Park each morning to reach the rear elevators was always a nice way to start out the day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharod Posted August 11, 2012 #7 Share Posted August 11, 2012 I'll chime in with deck 8!!! No better way to get from one end of the ship to the other than a nice stroll through Central Park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
