lovedecruise Posted August 27 #1 Share Posted August 27 Hi, having only cruised on the old Sun Princess, the Diamond Princess and recently the Majestic Princess, we are now considering a cruise on the Royal. As this cruise will be in the cooler months, we are not sure how much use our uncovered balcony will be, especially if it rains. Are there any nice, quiet, relaxing indoor lounges where one can go should the weather be bad outside? On our recent cruises, we have had access to the Hollywood Conservatory on the Majestic along with the adults only solarium and Eden on Celebrity Edge. We would prefer not to have to pay for the Sanctuary and from looking at the pictures, I’m not sure how weathertight this area is anyway. Thank you for your help.

lovedecruise Posted August 27 Author #3 Share Posted August 27 Yes, I thought of that but from experience on the other Princess Ships, the Vista lounge was used for all manner of entertainment, (talks, dance lessons, game shows etc), on the sea days. There don’t seem to be many other options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldubs Posted August 27 #4 Share Posted August 27 On Grand Class ships, between Vista, Explorers, Wheelhouse, Crooners, and even the international cafe/piazza, I can usually find an inside place to chill when I want. Additionally there are the comfortable chairs & couches outside of Wheelhouse and Explorers/Crown Grill. Just have to move around a little. I have not been on Royal and realize she doesn't follow the same template. Still, I bet you will be able to find some relatively quiet places to relax throughout the day.

skynight Posted August 27 #5 Share Posted August 27 During the day try Crooner's Bar, Wheelhouse Bar, Horizon Terrace. Seating in the Vista Lounge on the Royal is not very comfortable. Curious about your cabin. Almost all cabins with a balcony on the Royal have covered or partially balconies. Most balconies are small, 9ft x 4ft. Some are extended or angled with partial cover.

cruise_critical Posted August 28 #7 Share Posted August 28 Deck 6 Double Down Bar on the smaller section of the Casino can be dead quiet at times I found. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HU9eN_oetEk&t=518s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
