Emerald Mattresses

How are the mattresses on the Emerald? Do I need to ask for the egg crate topper this time around? Thanks.

I always ask for a topper because it seems to be hit or miss and you can always send the topper back if you find you don't need it.

Our suite on the Emerald last April had a very comfortable mattress on the bed (we prefer medium to soft).

Good point. Thank you both for your response.

I don't think you can make a general assessment of an entire ship, unless it is very new. I'm not even sure if mattresses are different in suites and you did not specify stateroom type. Also, mattresses are swapped out in stages on ships, so it's difficult to say for certain what you might encounter.

 

In our experiences, we have only had one bad mattress (and I do mean 1 out of the 2 in the cabin). A word to a hotel manager and it was swapped out the next day. There was definitely something wrong with it.

 

We are both slim build and do prefer on the firm side and have found them quite acceptable.

We had the new pillow top mattress on our last Emerald cruise and it was quite comfortable. :)

On Emerald last summer and the bed was very comfortable.

We have been on the Emerald 4 times during the last two years. Never the same cabin. Each time never needed a crate. We always request a top sheet before travel. It is never on the bed. But steward takes care of the problem during turn down.

Just off Emerald in the cheapest inside cabin and our mattresses were very good

Again,thank you all for the good replies and info. The mattresses sound fine. Yes, I too, always ask for a top sheet. It's a good option. Thanks.

We're on the Emerald in November. Why do you request a top sheet? Just wondering. I assume Princess uses duvets like the other cruise lines.
