knscruiser322 Posted June 14, 2023 #1 Share Posted June 14, 2023 Around cabin 14780. Currently I have a nice room at 11866, but if upgrading that would be the room available. Was wondering if anyone stayed here or near this vicinity to comment on this. Thanks in advance CCer's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knscruiser322 Posted June 14, 2023 Author #3 Share Posted June 14, 2023 That is nice to hear especially since that is literally on the opposite side. I'm guessing its because the floors above and below are all cabins so the only traffic would be people going back to their rooms or waiting for the elevator. So you don't even hear the chimes of the elevator? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would definitely stay in this location again if given the opportunity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fredflint Posted June 15, 2023 #6 Share Posted June 15, 2023 I have had cabins by elevators before on other ships and have never had a noise issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since we have some mobility issues, we always have a cabin at the elevator banks. are there kids that run down the hall, yup… but that would be the same noise anywhere in the hall (more by the elevators). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Sailing12Away Posted June 15, 2023 #8 Share Posted June 15, 2023 We were on deck 15, no noise at all. There's a separate door to get into the hallway on that deck so you don't hear a peep from the elevator. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think elevator noises are an overblown issue -- certainly on the newer ships that have no public areas on the deck. A far more important concern is the venue below or above you. We made the mistake of deck 9 on Joy right above the Cavern Club. I love the Beatles, but damn, a person can take only so much... 😆 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NW Pacific Posted June 15, 2023 #10 Share Posted June 15, 2023 Cabins near the elevator bank I think are the best choice. No waking through the long hallways. Never ever heard any noise from the elevator area. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was originally on the fence and waited too long so HJ, the lowest Haven suite was all sold out, so the next one up which only had literally 4 left. It seems everyone is just upgrading to Haven because of the price drops as it inches closer to sailing. A few days ago the same room was literally a couple of hundred bucks more. Big difference. Thanks all who chimed in.! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red-Sol Posted June 16, 2023 #16 Share Posted June 16, 2023 Haven't been on the Joy but have been on nearly all of the larger ships. We have never been bothered by any noise from the elevators and we purposely book cabins as close to them as we can. (for convenience) You will be fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knscruiser322 Posted June 18, 2023 Author #17 Share Posted June 18, 2023 Hi again, Can anyone tell me what is above the room in 14176 on the Joy? It looks to be a open area. Is that the Observation Lounge? Now I'm wondering if there will be heavy foot traffic noise from above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's carpeted and people don't drag the chairs around, so it's not nearly as high traffic as say the pool or buffet. This site has pics of the area. https://www.cruisedeckplans.com/DP/deckplans/Norwegian-Joy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that the Observation Lounge? Now I'm wondering if there will be heavy foot traffic noise from above. Our portside balcony stateroom was on Deck 15 last September and we frequently visited/use the OL, I dig thru our photo collections - cabin #14176 is under the OL, it is near "current" entrance - but as best as I can remember (see photo below as that's best one we have to help explain it) - it is a non-public space there, further ahead along that corridor is the first section of the lounge with fixed/stationary sofa, small coffee tables and about 4 chairs ... layout similar to a large living room. Any foot traffic would be directly along the corridor (that's "your" hallway, outside the cabin ... sound insulation is excellent, you won't hear any ordinary noises from above.) Even if someone is going to move around those single chairs, it is not going to really make a lot of noise that you can hear from the deck below. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We heard no noise from above, below, or the hall. It was a well-positioned room, though I was slightly nervous, not knowing exactly what was above us. I think you'll find your room is peaceful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knscruiser322 Posted June 19, 2023 Author #21 Share Posted June 19, 2023 (edited) @mking8288 Thanks so much for the pictures. So basically above me is probably a crew area that is non-public space which starts the OL. This is so helpful! Thanks all for chiming in as well!

I had an inside cabin near the aft elevators (13641). I could hear the chimes. If you have a balcony cabin, you are a bit farther away and won't hear them.
