VennDiagram Posted October 31, 2022 #1 Share Posted October 31, 2022 We are considering booking HH 3417 on the Zaandam. I know it is smaller than a regular OV, but the HHs are about the only cabins in our price range. My concern is noise from above. Would appreciate hearing your experience and/or thoughts on this cabin. Also, I would appreciate any other suggestions for an HH that would not be subjected to noise from above. Thanks in advance.

Navybikermom Posted October 31, 2022 #2 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Halfacts mentions that rooms in that area (on that class of ship) are quiet, even being under the dining room. You would hear noise from activity outside on the promenade deck, but in my experience the noise level is not disturbing. I will be a few cabins away in January - 3405, but that might be too late to tell you what I thought of the location. Last September I was a deck lower and it was very quiet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VennDiagram Posted October 31, 2022 Author #3 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Thanks very much @Navybikermom ! I've been on that deck previously and the noise from the promenade deck hasn't been an issue. Your reassurance is just what I needed. 🙂 And I'll check halfacts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loreto Posted October 31, 2022 #4 Share Posted October 31, 2022 We have been in HH under the dining room on the Zaandam a number of times and found them to be quiet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trk_koa Posted October 31, 2022 #5 Share Posted October 31, 2022 (edited) My sister had 3418 (other side of the ship) and it was very quiet. We were in 2713 and it was so loud that we could not stand it. It’s next to a machine room. They moved us to 3382 below a kitchen. Very noisy, mostly door slamming and carts rolling. So I think you’d be good with 3417. Edited October 31, 2022 by trk_koa Grammar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherry H Posted October 31, 2022 #6 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Am I correct in thinking the ocean view cabins do not have a refrigerator? how does that work for those of us who are due a discount on drinks normally in the fridge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can rent a fridge. When I got on there were two cans of Coke and a bottle of water sitting on the desk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfish Posted October 31, 2022 #8 Share Posted October 31, 2022 We were in 3418 on the Rotterdam a few years back. It was very quiet with no noise from the dining room. The carpet helps and the time people are in there is limited. I'd stay there again. We have 3416 booked for July/August 2023 because of our experience on the old Rotterdam. And, you are steps from the promenade deck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a little "problem" with where to put it! My vote was the knee-bay of the desk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
