suebidou Posted January 26, 2018 #1 Share Posted January 26, 2018 We want to select a cabin on Royal Princess but would like some advice. A511 - we are only 2 people. Since it can accommodate 4 people, where is the upper bed located? M127 - will we hear the sound from Movies under the stars? D329 - will we hear the music from the Crooners Bar? Can people smoke there? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you want to be closer to the Piazza? Pick Dolphin. You can't smoke in Crooners When picking your cabin it all depends what you want to be closer to while cruising. We were on Marina on our Royal cruise, but I didn't like being so high up. The sound of the ocean wasn't as loud a it is on a lower deck, which seems obvious, but it was out first time so high up. We spent a lot of time at the Retreat pool, and it was a short walk, but we all agreed that we'd prefer to be closer to MDR, Crooners, and the Bellini bar, but that's just us.

We prefer a cabin in a quiet location and a non-obstructed view from our balcony. In the past we have had cabins on the Baja, Caribe and Riviera decks.

anthonyy7 Posted January 26, 2018 #4 Share Posted January 26, 2018 You may hear noise from Lido depending what is being played but M127 is high and forward. Dolphin is quiet with more wave sounds and less movement. There is a cabin below you and crooners is on the opposite side of the ship. A511 is a great location but that is a connecting room with A509. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cindy Posted January 26, 2018 #6 Share Posted January 26, 2018 So what happens on connecting rooms?Have you been in one? We happen to be booked in one in November Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk You will have a door in your cabin that opens into the connecting cabin. It can increase the noise you hear from next door. In some cases it can also affect your furniture size/placement. I’ve had a connecting cabin once, and with the exception of the door it had no impact at all. It really is just luck of the draw as to who your neighbors are.

susancruzs Posted January 26, 2018 #7 Share Posted January 26, 2018 On D329, Emerald Deck is above the public areas. I was in an Emerald deck cabin, 2 weeks last Fall, could not hear a thing from the Promenade Deck. D329 has cabins above and below it. I like to be near the International Cafe, public decks so I always choose decks, C, D or E. I don't go to the buffet very often, have breakfast or lunch in the IC area. Being on an upper deck, when I spend most of the time on 5, 6 or 7 suits me best. Cabin choice is always a personal thing, happy choosing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elycelynne Posted January 26, 2018 #8 Share Posted January 26, 2018 I was in D323 last year (not that far from 329). As a previous poster said, it's between two cabin decks. I didn't hear a thing (and you probably wouldn't either). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might like the door! Last time the kids would use the balcony to go from one cabin to the other Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baronessk Posted January 27, 2018 #10 Share Posted January 27, 2018 I LOVE Marina deck. Have had M211 (MS) twice now and have just booked interior across from it for April. EASY access to retreat pool, lido etc. as someone else stated. I don't find it far to walk to Crooners, IC, Piazza. For me...Marina ticks all the boxes.
