Clarea Posted February 29, 2016 #26 Share Posted February 29, 2016 The only difference I could see between the two lounges are the chairs. The chairs in the Suite Lounge are awful--the seats are so deep you can't lean against the back, resulting in a back ache every night. They both had the same drinks and food available. Both were crowded. The Suite Lounge did finally open up the outdoor area; they were still working on the Diamond outdoor area. Maybe they will kick out the D+ members when they add the soda/beer/wine from 11am to 11pm, like on Oasis class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfganghowell Posted February 29, 2016 #27 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Are they planning on adding the 11a-11p option? Watch out Bob - you'll start a new rumor! :D :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

julesbeara Posted March 1, 2016 Author #29 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Hadn't heard about the 11 to 11 option. Would be a nice Suite Lounge perk on the Liberty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merion_Mom Posted March 1, 2016 #30 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Hadn't heard about the 11 to 11 option. Would be a nice Suite Lounge perk on the Liberty. They are speculating in that direction because that is the set-up on Allure and Oasis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch out Bob - you'll start a new rumor! :D :D Like Carol says, only because the only other two Suite Lounges do that. There has to be a reason for calling it a Suite Lounge instead of a Concierge Lounge, and I hope it's not only the negative one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarea Posted March 1, 2016 #34 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Anyone know which restaurant is used as the Suite Breakfast Dining room? Forgot if we used Chops or Giovanni's, but it does not really matter because it could change. You will get a letter in your stateroom with details, including the location of the suite breakfast.

djh Posted March 1, 2016 #35 Share Posted March 1, 2016 I have heard from a few P friends who were on LB the past 2 or 3 weeks. D+ have been allowed in the SL. However, the card reader on the SL door is not working and they were advised that when it was functioning properly, the SL would be only allowing suite and Pinnacle cruisers. I will have other friends on in a couple of weeks. We will see how it goes then. I have 56 days before I can see for myself! After we returned from our 2/7 cruise, I wrote a letter to Michael Bayleys office because every time we went into the suite lounge, there were no seats available. A rep from his office called me last Thursday and told me that this is definitely changing, no more diamond plus in the suite lounge. She sounded like it would be immediate but apparently it has not happened yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scooter1954 Posted March 1, 2016 #38 Share Posted March 1, 2016 I am in a grand suite now. Chops for breakfast everyday and chops for lunch on sea days only. Rumor last night was this is last week for diamond plus in suite lounge. Who ever said the chairs are uncomfortable in the suite lounge is absolutely correct.

If you get there early, you can get one of the smaller gold chairs--the only ones that don't break your back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We totally agree that the chairs that are in the suite lounge are horrible. But I wouldn't hold my breath that they will be changed out. The lounge is really an improvement over the closet that was the old lounge. There is no established date for the Diamond lounge balcony to be finished because there is much welding and work yet to be accomplished, but when it is completed, it will approximately double the size of the Diamond lounge as that balcony will be the same size as the suite lounge balcony. This will do much to help the over crowding that is so common today. side note, Tom and Nancy, it was great to cruise with you guys back to back and we look forward to the next opportunity.

Ed and Mary When they boot the D+ out, they will probably swap chairs and put the bad ones in the D Lounge. :rolleyes: We really enjoyed your company also. Hope to meet again one day.

Those were the six chairs that they added mid week on our cruise after many passengers complained about the lack of seating, lol. There was seating for 40 and 283 passengers eligible to use the suite lounge that week. There was no seating outside at that time. You are so right, those chairs were absolutely the only comfortable ones in the entire lounge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfganghowell Posted March 1, 2016 #45 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Well those couches in the old CL weren't that pretty but they sure were comfy. I thought the DL already had an outdoor seating area. The one photo I saw of the area outside the SL looks nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
