Where do you like the bed??

[KAYKAY121]

I have a Club Balcony booked on the Bliss and have been in a Balcony but never with the bed by the balcony. Which is better and gives you more space? I requested the bed by the closet but I am thinking by the balcony door might be better.

I like the bed by the balcony, it’s a bit too tight if it’s by the closet to try to get things in and out  for me. Plus I like being able to lay in the bed and see outside.

Bed by the balcony door.  Makes it easier to come and go from the cabin, not to mention accessing the closet.

[MeHeartCruising]

Bed by balcony, definitely.  More room between the hallway and bed so you can more easily access closets and more room for multiple people to get ready to leave the cabin.

[Moonglo]

Yes, I agree. I like the bed by the balcony door.  Its nice to have a bit of room to get ready in.

I'm more concerned with who's in the bed than where it's located 

[JamieLogical]

I also prefer the bed by the balcony. Bed by the closet is always tight and don't even think about having both of you try to change for dinner at the same time!

wherever i can lay down is ok by me. wherever the bed happens to be in the cabin is satisfactory. in 18 ncl cruises, i never even gave this a thought

As long as there is a balcony in my stateroom, I’m fine.

As long as I’m on a ship with a balcony and a bed, life is good...

 

It’s been too long!

Bed by the closet. I like more room by the balcony. I use the balcony a lot more than the closet.

I hope mine is by the balcony. My very first cruise on Celebrity Equinox had this configuration (door, couch/desk, bed, balcony) and I loved it. On the Infinity it was by the door (door, bed, couch/desk, balcony), and I didn't care for it too much, but I managed. The extra space between the bed and the door made a difference; and sleeping by the sea a plus.

 

Closets in both cases were easy to get to.

Also, the room seems larger, and feels less cramped with the bed by the balcony; both rooms were only 192 square feet.

As long as my dear wife is in the bed with me, I'm happy.

Me too, as long as it's on the ship I'm booked on... LOL  🥂

By the balcony or closet either is way better than the one with just 12" on either side in an inside! 

[Langham1865]

although it has never been a big concern to me until I ready this.  now that I think about it, I prefer by the closet, not by the balcony.  I understand there is not as much room to access the closet.  But for me, thinking back, when the bed is by the entrance/closet, the room feels more open and brighter for me.

It will be the same man that has been there for 30 years. LOL

Thanks for the responses and pictures. I am still undecided. Wish it was a Murphy bed so we would have all that room either way. 🙂

But then you would lose the space under the bed for storing your empty suitcases!

True. I tend to overpack and it is just two of us.

I absolutely prefer the bed to be in my cabin.  Seems to work better than sleeping on lounge chairs on deck.

I see people do that. I wondered if they were inside cabin occupants.

Kicked out by their spouse/roomie?

They had the beverage package.
