Florida_cruisers Posted July 8, 2023 #1 Share Posted July 8, 2023 What do you think is better on Voyager of the Seas, oceanview window cabin on deck 2 ($150 less for the cabin price) or interior cabin on deck 8? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personal preference. I personally couldn't care less about having a window but I wouldn't want to be down on deck 2. I'd rather be somewhere in between the pool deck and promenade as I avoid the elevator whenever possible and prefer to be closer to higher decks for places I frequent so it would be deck 8 for me.

Rare Tree_skier Posted July 8, 2023 #3 Share Posted July 8, 2023 Inside on deck 8... I'd hate being down on deck 2. The cabin configuration and size will be the same minus the window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted July 8, 2023 #4 Share Posted July 8, 2023 Lol I'd pick the window for $150 less. Its probably a bit bigger cabin and I like to see the weather when I wake up. For sure even if the same price I'd pick the window. The deck for me doesnt matter much, more walking is all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cabin configuration and size will be the same minus the window. I looked it on on voyager specifically and both inside and ov are 160 sf. Both have some larger configurations but the basic on both is 160 sf. I'd still rather a window than not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisegirl1 Posted July 8, 2023 #7 Share Posted July 8, 2023 Personally, I don’t care what deck I’m on. I would rather have a window on deck 2 than an inside on any other deck. m 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be careful deck 2 can be very noisy with the waves hitting the hull! Didn't like it at all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about an inside promenade cabin? Prices for these cabins are sometimes reasonable. Deck 6, 7, and 8 with large bay windows overlooking the promenade.

I'm quite sure you have no idea what you are talking about or how annoying it is! Not a wave sound at all - but a hammer hitting metal with screeching in between, we thought it was an untied rope or metal chain hitting the hull - but were told it is the waves hitting the hull when the ship dives into them...all night long🙄🥴 Never deck 2 again for us!

Ummmm, after 24 years in the U.S. Navy, most of those years at sea; followed by 25+ years of civilian cruising, I think I know what I'm talking about. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you heard that I'd say your cabin was also far forward. If your cabin was mid to aft you dont hear that sound. That's a sound of being far forward. Not just deck 2.

clackey Posted July 10, 2023 #17 Share Posted July 10, 2023 We were on deck 8 with promenade view. Much prefer that to a window on any deck, but we have only done it twice on RCI. We have no problem with a inside cabin on deck 2 if the prom view isn't available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never stayed in one but I have heard from others that they can be quite noisy from activities on the Promenade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roupa Posted July 10, 2023 #19 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Had an inside twice…claustrophobic for me!! (once on an upper deck when my son took me along and once on deck 2 with spouse) Prefer any window anywhere (tho a balcony will spoil you!) Had to accept the deck 2 cabin and found it quite noisy for reasons not truly identified. (“had to accept “ because our TA didn’t follow up with final pmt and could only get the deck2 inside to get us rebooked! Book myself ever since!)
