suekay Posted June 20, 2014 #1 Share Posted June 20, 2014 I've never been tempted to book a cruise on Allure, but now that it will be sailing from Barcelona, have decided to take my 86 year old Mum. I'd really prefer an ocean view balcony as Mum likes to watch portside activity, but finances dictate the cheapest possible balcony so I'm looking at booking a c2 . I was thinking of 10245, but wonder which is the quietest area of Central Park? I can't do a search on my tablet, so would appreciate any help Sent from my GT-P5210 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suekay Posted June 25, 2014 Author #2 Share Posted June 25, 2014 With over 190 viewings its hard to believe that nobody knows which is the quietest area of Central Park to book a balcony cabin. But it doesn't matter now.......my TA had a group booking price on ov balconies, so I've booked one and we're happy[emoji1] Sent from my GT-P5210 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonnaK Posted June 25, 2014 #4 Share Posted June 25, 2014 All of Central Park is very quiet and peaceful, although some people very high up (like deck 12) reported hearing muted music from the pool deck. We had 10585, and were very pleased with it. But, you've already chosen an OV, and to be honest, I'd rather face the ocean than the interior of the ship anyway! Enjoy Allure!

mrsromy Posted June 25, 2014 #5 Share Posted June 25, 2014 We've been on Decks 10 and 11 and I preferred 11. All was quiet once the door was shut and the door was locked...and even during the day if we had our door open, we were never bothered by noise. People tend to quiet down when they enter Central Park...there's never been a lot of noise (not like the Boardwalk). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEEDIA Posted June 25, 2014 #6 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I thought of this, but then thought every ones views are different so opted for 12635 CP, our own choice, we are not sailing till October so could not offer any advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DH and I are sailing next week on Allure with a balcony overlooking Central Park on Deck 11; I never really even thought about potential noise, just a different vantage point. We have been in oceanview balconies before and lets face it the 'ocean view' doesn't change much unless a ship is in view or clouds or birds flying by. Sure there is sunrise and sunset, but I can see those from other venues of the ship if I want to anyway. I am looking forward to the CP view.

How did you like this balcony? This cabin is available, it looks central to everything. Where was placement of bed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCruisers Posted September 22, 2014 #11 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Honestly, Central Park is not a noisy place. All of the balconies are quiet. ;) LuLu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigboffs Posted September 22, 2014 #13 Share Posted September 22, 2014 As said on another thread, if you have a cabin on deck 14, it is directly below the sports deck. Depending on the activity on 15 above your cabin, it can be noisy a lot of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
