Shaung1989 Posted June 14, 2023 #1 Share Posted June 14, 2023 We are booked onto the NCL epic in an inside family room. We’re thinking of upgrading to a club balcony- I was just wondering if the sofas can be removed to make extra room for 2 pack and play cots?

Rare 1025cruise Posted June 14, 2023 #2 Share Posted June 14, 2023 Very unlikely the sofa can be removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twocoasts Posted June 15, 2023 #3 Share Posted June 15, 2023 It's not a free-standing sofa. It's built in and has storage in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaung1989 Posted June 15, 2023 Author #4 Share Posted June 15, 2023 Thanks for the replies I read up some other ships they could be removed but it doesn't look like it on the Epic it seems. Looks like we'll get ourselves some travel bed rails and our 2 year old can sleep on the sofa bed. thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When our son was little, we rolled extra towels and tucked them under the fitted sheet. Worked perfectly 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIW and as a suggestion, you might want to contact NCL Special Needs / Access Desk and ask about it, maybe they can - note that in your booking, if it can be done and have the sofa bed frame moved out of the cabin (it's heavy and require 2 crew members to safely do it) The sofabed isn't an integrated one-piece slide-out sofa, rather it is a cleverly designed storage headboard/backrest, with a sliding storage bedframe on the bottom ... and the high density foam mattress sitting on top. The frame looked fairly similar to a traditional metal bedframe (see below - it's not the exact one, but pretty close to it) - one of the large drawer is used to store the extra pillows, sheets & duvet/comforter. Ask ahead and see what NCL say, if you wait until embarkation - housekeeping is short on staffing these days and might be more challenging to get anything done until they are free & available ... evening or day 2, etc. A few years ago, we're doing a CC cabin crawl and someone on the *Away class ship did something similar to the sofa in their balcony stateroom to free up valuable floor space, as they needed the extra room for "access" reasons and all the accessible cabins were taken. Kindly let us know if you are successful. Good luck. Edited June 15, 2023 by mking8288 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
