Vicjac Posted October 14, 2016 #1 Share Posted October 14, 2016 (edited) Does anyone have pictures or information on E411? I know that it is an obstructed cabin. I just don't know how obstructed it is. Any info would be great. Also any inside information regarding the Royal would also be great.

jasbo49 Posted October 14, 2016 #2 Share Posted October 14, 2016 We have a similar cabin booked for a spring transatlantic, but have never sailed on the Royal. I've done enough prowling around (can't really call it research) to say that the "obstruction" is pretty insignificant. It is just that if you look down, you see the Promenade deck area instead of the water. If you look straight out, there is no obstruction.

Example: Winemaker's Dinner Thanks, Here you go for photo of what your cabin view would look like - no obstruction when looking straight out: https://sites.google.com/site/royalregalprincess/home/8-emerald As for other ship info, tons of threads here about Royal/Regal, tips and such. Winemaker's Dinner is one of the best value specialty dining options on the ship, sign up at DINE line or specialty dining table right away upon boarding. Alfredo's is a lovely no fee sit down eatery for a change from buffet or grill, great for embarkation lunch too. Beautiful ship, I'm sure you'll enjoy her!

catsdinner Posted October 14, 2016 #6 Share Posted October 14, 2016 We stayed in E411 and loved it. There is no obstruction. Immediately beneath the balcony is the roof for the sitting area of the Promenade deck. I guess this is what they call the obstruction. You can look directly out at the ocean while sitting on your balcony. The balcony is bigger than the standard balconies on the Royal. We enjoyed it a lot. This is also a slightly bigger cabin as it is has a loveseat instead of a chair. We have booked this cabin again in March. Sarah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Flyer Posted October 14, 2016 #7 Share Posted October 14, 2016 The Winemakers Dinner for $40 with free flowing wine throughout the meal is great. It's in the ATD rooms "Wine Cellar" but like the Chef's Table is limited to 10 passengers & only done once or twice per week. Here are the menus & all 3 of ours have been the Michael Mondavi filet mignon which the headwaiter said is most popular with passengers. http://www.beyondships2.com/uploads/8/2/4/5/8245255/wine_makers_menu_2-oct-13_without_price.pdf The frozen treats at Gelato's ($3.50 or 1 coffee card punch), a multi course Alfredo's Pizzeria meal (http://www.beyondships2.com/uploads/8/2/4/5/8245255/rp-alfredos_pizzeria-23-may-13.pdf) and a Crab Margarita ($6) at Ocean Seafood Bar are all great.

Astro Flyer Posted October 14, 2016 #9 Share Posted October 14, 2016 (edited) Wow, thanks everyone for your comments. Love it!!! Keep them coming. Sailing for 10 days in Feb. A great buffet & the Royal and Regal are the only Princess ships that provide free filtered coffee made from ground coffee. Free coffee on other Princess ships is made from concentrated coffee & the consensus is that is not nearly as good. A great on-demand in cabin TV system with recent movies & the day after it's shown on Movies Under The Stars (MUTS) the movie is available in the cabin which one person described as also MUTS...Movies Under The "Sheets". ;) Edited October 14, 2016 by Astro Flyer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love resorts and cruises Posted October 15, 2016 #10 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Does anyone have pictures or information on E411? I know that it is an obstructed cabin. I just don't know how obstructed it is. Any info would be great. Shhhh...Don't tell everyone our secret! E411 is a superior balcony cabin with a balcony twice as wide as the usual Royal Princess balconies. It overlooks the Promenade, but it IS NOT OBSTRUCTED in the sense that most obstructed cabins have views hindered by lifeboats/tenders. This cabin is priced as an obstructed cabin. I had one on the Regal, and I am sailing in E409 on the Royal in 8 days!! Book it; enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've sailed in these Royal/Regal midship Emerald deck "obstructed" cabins, but never one of the deluxe ones. I can see that the trade-off for having the loveseat is less counter space for frig and smaller vanity table. How did you like it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love resorts and cruises Posted December 1, 2016 #12 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Now, after staying in both a standard balcony and a deluxe balcony on the Regal/Royal, I love the deluxe. The loss of vanity space was not noticeable. We loved the love seat. That whole part of the cabin felt less congested and easier access to the balcony. I would not pay much extra for it, but if we can get good deals in the future, would book it again. Enjoy E409 - best midship balcony. Period!!

Knickearth Posted December 4, 2016 #14 Share Posted December 4, 2016 how does one know which menu is being served on which dinner? After reading the 3 menus, I would prefer the first one. Do they let you know somehow? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I correct in saying that you not only lose vanity space but also a full set of 3 drawers too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tothemall&beyond Posted July 22, 2021 #19 Share Posted July 22, 2021 (edited) We have sailed many times in the midship Emerald deck 400 cabins - great cabins, no obstructions. These are the views from E409 right next door to E411. No obstruction at all. Edited July 22, 2021 by tothemall&beyond Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
