We stayed close by there once never saw anyone use it Might be door into Chops. I've used it when raining, but only when leaving Chops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare John&LaLa Posted July 30, 2021 #27 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I kinda like deck 9 now. The liitle overlook balconies by elevator are a nice place to look out onto CP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone experienced any problems with the location? We love deck 8. We have stayed twice just aft of the elevators and did not have any sound troubles. Being too close to the elevators can be loud at times. We were 6-8 cabins beyond the elevators with no noise. We love deck 8 on the Oasis as we can access the Park Cafe for coffee and a quick breakfast in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deck 8 is terrible stay away, as far away as possible!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtazz17 Posted July 30, 2021 #30 Share Posted July 30, 2021 We stay on deck 8 every cruise on oasis class. We rarely take elevators because its a compromise between top and bottom decks. Best deck imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoperDK Posted July 31, 2021 #31 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Hate to let the cat out of the bag, but deck 8 mid-ship is the best! So convenient to everything and no noise issues from the elevators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Central park is so chill and convenient. I'm a notoriously super light sleeper and noise has never been a problem for me. Highly, highly recommend.

We just booked deck 8 on the port side mid-forward right by the elevators. I hope I made a good choice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We like to sleep in a bed facing forward and the ocean to our left. Nothing to do with where restaurants are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The elevators are in a cubby area so any talking or mechanical noise is buffered. We were never disturbed by folks walking past our cabin to get to the elevators either. I think you will be pleased with your choice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our favorite on oasis is 8202 - bed is by the balcony and the cabin is directly across from the back door to the park cafe. Makes it real quick to get back to the cabin with morning coffee. Whoa! Back door to Park Cafe? Do they let you in? We’re port side on Harmony in March and will have to walk aft before we can walk forward to Park Cafe through Central Park.

Find a cabin that holds 3 or 4 guest (look for the asterisk or triangle). That will have the bed by the bat. The cabin on either side of that will have the bed by the balcony. pattern repeats 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
