Some of those OV's on Plaza are right over the stabilizers. We've sailed on 2 different cruises with people who were really bothered by the noise and vibration to the point of the Purser giving them a second cabin just for sleeping while also keeping their Plaza OV. We've sailed in 318 and 322, both insides, and only heard/felt a little vibration 1 or 2 times over 14 days in 318, and nothing over 12 days in 322. Perhaps others can tell you precisely which OV's to avoid. Otherwise, Plaza deck is quiet, stable and quite wonderful on Emerald, Crown and Ruby. If you love coffee, you'll really love the ease of getting to the Internat'l Cafe.

Yes, you will definitely hear the stabilizers in the Plaza deck cabins furthest towards mid-ship. How much noise depends on the sea conditions. The noise is definitely the stabilizers since you hear and feel a shuddering sound as the ship rolls.

Now I am worried ! I am a light sleeper and with friends have booked 307 and 309. Hope it is not as bad as it sounds.

Also, depending on how close you are to the front of the ship, you may get anchor noise on tender port days. However, Plaza deck cabins are so conveniently situated to the Atrium and the International Cafe. It is also so handy coming back from exhausting port days and not have to walk to the other end of the ship to get to your cabin. We have had plenty of cabins on Plaza Deck and would have no hesitation in booking another cabin there again.

I have had P334 and loved it. I never heard anything from stablizers or anything else. It was very quiet. Super location for access to the atrium, IC, and MDR. I would stay there again. :)
