Has anyone ever stayed in a Category 1A interior/bunkbed room on the Carnival Glory

[travelady65]

I am going on the Carnival Glory September 22, 2018 and staying in a Category 1A interior/bunkbed room...I am travelling solo, so i know that this will be comfortable for me....My question is has anyone ever stayed in one before...I am on the Empress Deck...

 

Would appreciate any information on the cabin itself that you can tell me...:)

I always stay in a 1A porthole cabin. Was in 1212 on the Glory this past April. Nice & roomy for a solo. 1212 is nice since bed is in corner up against the wall (can't roll & fall out that way lol). I usually stay in 2216....bed is closer to the portholes in that one & not against the wall so I sort of "flip" over instead of roll. I think one time they actually had 2 singles pushed together in that one (might have been last year on the Glory) but they took the couch out.

Hope that all helps

BTW I have 2217 booked on the Splendor for Sept (will be my 24th on Carnival).

I had 6393 Upper, 7345 Empress and 8357(?) Verandah, all interior, not far from the self service laundry room as a solo on many Conquest class ships, inc. the Glory. I asked for the twin beds to be converted to a king, and found they have more room than the regular inside. There was another bed that stayed hidden in the ceiling. These were my favorite cabins on this class ship.

 

I also had a forward porthole 1A and found them cramped and noisy. Every morning when docking I would be awakened by the thrusters rattling and shaking. Also had a split 1A as far forward as you can go without a porthole where a twin bed was on one wall and the convertible couch was around a corner on the opposite wall, in an L shaped room. Detested that layout as well. I called it an inferior interior.

Do NOT allow them to give you cabin 1293 or 1295 (Rivera Deck) on the Carnival Glory!!!!!

We just came back from a cruise from 5/13-20 Eastern Carribean. We loved the ship, the itinerary and were up to 1 AM just about every night.

That being said--these rooms are above the Environmental Engineering Room (AKA Recycling Room-staff level). Once we got to our cabin each of the 6 nights that we were there--we heard the equivalent of a recycling bin at a grocery store, crunching, munching and then the rolling or dragging of a cart until 4:30 in the morning. We complained and were told that the ship was full and we couldn't be moved anywhere. After getting up and going to the pursers desk 3x each night, having the manager of housekeeping tell us that he would have them "quiet down" or that he needed to ''hear the noise." He would leave and promise that the noise would stop--it did in some occaisions for an hour and then start backup. We finally had to escalate to the manager of customer services Secor and they gave us $150 on board credit but could not move us. Needless to say we were exhausted from lack of sleep by the time we got home. I always research the location of the cabin (away from elevators or public areas) ensuring no casinos, pools or discos are above or below us, but you cannot see what is in the staff level. I now know why this was 'the last oceanview cabin' on the ship. I'm a gold Carnival VIP member and have stayed on Riveria many times without noise issues.

That said the cruise was wonderful but really left a bad impression on my first cruise BF and that they booked this room and then were surprised that there was noise. One of the CSRs told us when we asked--there are noted 28 times people have complained about this room--obviously had we known we would have taken a different itinerary than to be sleep depraved on vacation.

Good luck.

aren't cabins 6345, 7345, and 8345 interior/bunkbed cabins? so how can they put two twin beds into a queen....when the room only has one twin, and one upper bunk? anyway how was abin 7345? that is the cabin i am going to be in... as far as the cruise how was the entertainment, activities, food, etc? I haven't been on carnival for a while...last cruise i took on carnival was the carnival paradise and that was back in 2014....was not impressed with that cruise at all....

 

Would appreciate any feedback that you may have....thank you..

I have stayed in cabins 7345 and 8357 on the Glory. The website description and picture for these cabins is incorrect, when I stayed in them both cabins had two beds on the floor that could be pushed together to make one larger bed. I believe there is also a bed that lowers down from the ceiling.

Those are the only 1A's I'd stay in. I don't like the single bed.

These people know more than I do since I've never stayed in one, but I was watching Youtube videos last night and one of videos was a super short one about the upper/lower bunk interior room on the Glory. I guess it was a 1A . Here's the link if you want it.
