How much more would you pay for a promenade vs inside room


Recommended Posts

Personally I would not pay $500 more for a promenade. If it was $500 for a balcony then maybe but realistically how much will you sit and watch the view of the promenade. Use the $500 for a great excursion, drinks package or some dinners at a specialty restaurant.

I am interested in staying in a Promenade room. I'm looking at it from the other side though. I love a view of the ocean and have think about how much I can save by going for the people/parade watching vs the balcony or sea view.

We generally don't pay more than $100 per night, even for a balcony. We usually pick inside rooms, but will get a balcony if the price is right. Oceanview or Promenade rooms don't offer much appeal. We'll take them when we get a free upgrade but don't really like to pay extra for them.

We stayed in a promenade on Explorer last December for

New Years. That was fun -- got to see the midnight celebrations on the 31st from the "safety" of our cabin. But it was a last minute booking when the promenades were going for less than the inside cabins. As I said -- it was fun and a convenient location, but I would never pay that more for promenade over an inside.

Going on explorer in May and our promenade room was in the $400 range. Usually we do inside or ocean view. Have done balcony for our honeymoon but we spent most of our time out of the room. We'd rather save and get a cheaper room and splurge on casino, specialty restaurants and drink packages.

We have had 8 Promenade cabins on various RCCL ships. They are our favorite! We booked the very last one on an upcoming Indy 8 day cruise. I think that we paid around 100.00pp more than an inside. We usually book one across from the Pub, but ended up with one between the Pub and Cafe Promenade on Deck 6.

No way. For some reason, the promenade cabins felt smaller than a regular inside. Maybe it is because of the setup by the window.

 

I might choose it if it was a few dollars more ($20?) but that's it.

 

$500 more? No way.
