If they ever make a suite lounge elsewhere, closer to the upstairs retreat deck, .this could be a great jazz club/ piano bar for everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting excited to see in person! Is captain Kate still on the Equinox? Hope she is in August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just picturing a jazz trio with piano for this space... It has potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are the existing windows that were mostly covered in the old Michael's Club. Looks like they're allowing a lot more light to filter in... a good idea.

gordylad Posted May 30, 2019 #334 Share Posted May 30, 2019 are those glass dividers between balconies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHEZMARYLOU Posted May 30, 2019 #335 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Yes, they've always been there. Heavily frosted so you cannot see through them. They will open part way allowing access to the adjoining balcony if you want. The cabin attendant will open them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gordylad Posted May 30, 2019 #337 Share Posted May 30, 2019 I thought the balcony was getting refreshed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
39august Posted May 30, 2019 #338 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Thanks for the information Mary Lou. Yes, I was confused. So happy to hear no Hoppin changes to suites. We have our first in Sept. The "window" picture of the Retreat looks a lot better than that first picture. More light is a good thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There aren't many changes they could make to the balcony itself. That picture is also not new. The hull is still in white paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping for (at least some) Hoppen updates to the (Solstice class) suites. So... what are they going to get - some balcony furniture, and.... ?? I guess time will tell.

Saab4444 Posted May 30, 2019 #349 Share Posted May 30, 2019 14 hours ago, CHEZMARYLOU said: I think you are mistaking the original matrix with the revised matrix. The new suites were not added so the Sky Lounge remains the same. The interior cabins were also not added. Not sure about the Passport Bar but reports indicate the casino was not changed either (I don't gamble so didn't pay too much attention to that area). Suites were refreshed but did not get the Hoppen updates and the Suites Retreat deck did not get the hot tub. Just a few more days until we start seeing pictures from cruisers. I wonder if any TA's will be invited on board for a sneak peek when she reaches Ft. Lauderdale, or will they be too busy cleaning up and restocking. As a non-Suite traveller I am very happy that these so called „upgrades“ have not been made on Equinox and for that reason she is now my favorite ship in the Celebrity fleet until next dry dock. If I would look for an upscale suite experience I would book a smaller five star line like Crystal, Regent or Viking Ocean anyway. On the big mass market ships like MSC or NCL or Oasis class you are on a small peaceful island in the middle of the big stormy and noisy ocean. Not worth the money for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So excited and like you we aren’t cruising until September either! All the best for your wedding... I hope all of those on the first cruise have a fantastic time and share your pictures with us! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
