islesdave Posted August 13, 2018 #5 Share Posted August 13, 2018 FYI- A mini suite isn't really a suite with the perks. It's a slightly upgraded balcony cabin with larger bathroom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
don't-use-real-name Posted August 13, 2018 #6 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Both of those cabins have a mid-ship location and good access to elevators and stairs just around a corner and not a problem with traffic or noise. The Port side cabin 11568 is located right under the Rug rats (Splash) Academy and should pose no problems unless the wee ones start a march of the sugar plum fairy on your ceiling. The Starboard side 11068 is not too bad but the forward adjacent cabin 11066 is right under one of the restrooms on the deck above - noise and suppression of those vacuum operated facilities questionable also there is a passageway right over this cabin going from the pool to the buffet - I would go with the port side. Either balcony would be covered (sheltered) by the deck floor above. For a better idea of these cabins location and features - LINK: https://www.cruisedeckplans.com/DP/deckplans/Norwegian-Gem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mizLORInj Posted August 13, 2018 #10 Share Posted August 13, 2018 The mini-suites are slightly larger than the balcony cabins. When 3 girls traveled we opted for a minisuite for some extra space in the cabin, and the tub in the bathroom (vs. shower only in balcony cabin). This is for GEM, which we've cruised on many times--Jewel twice. As another posted pointed out, what you are under (or over) matters. We cruised with family who had a mini-suite under an uncarpeted area in the Garden Cafe and they asked to be moved after one night of noise from the kitchen area.
