jimdee3636 Posted December 25, 2018 #1 Share Posted December 25, 2018 I just booked one of those one-person-only 99 sq.ft. studio cabins on the Bliss for a 6-night Pacific Coastal in late April (L.A. to Vancouver). I know that there's a lounge for the exclusive use of studio cabin guests, but I can't figure out if it's open 24 hours a day. I'm an early riser, even on vacation, and I'm wondering if I can go down to the lounge at, say, 5:45AM for juice, espresso, and maybe a bite to eat. Thanks, and Merry Christmas!

Yes, you have access 24/7. I enjoy a very early coffee also. Only drawback was debarkation morning everything was closed up. Enjoy your cruise I love the studios and the lounges.

zqvol Posted December 25, 2018 #3 Share Posted December 25, 2018 Lounge is open 247. You will enjoy the studio. The 99 ftsq is more space than 2 people per person in an inside or OV. Very spacious cabin, plus the bed is huge! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimdee3636 Posted December 25, 2018 Author #4 Share Posted December 25, 2018 Thanks for the info. When you look closely at the space difference between a studio (99 sq.ft.) and a basic inside cabin (135 sq.ft.), the extra 36 sq. ft. doesn't (to me) seem worth paying the 100% single supplement rate for the basic inside, especially when you factor in the studio lounge amenities.

On roughly half the cruises I look at on NCL.com, a studio is more expensive than a sailaway inside cabin for one person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimdee3636 Posted December 25, 2018 Author #6 Share Posted December 25, 2018 FLAHAM: I guess I lucked out. My studio (with the all-you-can-drink package included, but not including port charges and taxes) is priced at $749 for the six-night cruise. The lowest "regular" inside would have been $898 for one-person occupancy, with the same drink package---a $149 difference, or roughly $25 a day. But you're right: the studios on all of the subsequent Alaska cruises on the Bliss next summer are more expensive than a single-occupancy inside would be. I'm not sure of the pricing logic, but I'm glad I got what I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike_DeA Posted December 26, 2018 #7 Share Posted December 26, 2018 My one time in a studio (Breakaway, April 2017), snacks were not available overnight when I checked (say 2-4am), so I presume they are restocked early in the AM but not certain when. The coffee/espresso/tea was available around the clock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
