MustBCruzn Posted August 31, 2013 #2026 Share Posted August 31, 2013 CABIN #: 1657 DECK #: 11 CLASS: A2 AREA: Port, aft BED NEAR: Bath QUIET?: not a sound BALCONY VIEW: Excellent view all around BALCONY SIZE: standard WIND A PROBLEM?: no SOOT A PROBLEM?: no PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: A very nice room nearly all the way aft.

April Jewel Posted August 31, 2013 #2027 Share Posted August 31, 2013 CABIN #: 6292 DECK #: 6 CLASS: 2C AREA: Starboard, aft BED NEAR: Balcony QUIET?: Slight sound from the engines but not a problem at all BALCONY VIEW: We knew we would be above the roof of QSine and picked this cabin in preference to one overlooking the lifeboats. To be honest we thought it was fine - we knew we wouldn't be looking down to the sea but we could still see very well BALCONY SIZE: larger than standard WIND A PROBLEM?: no SOOT A PROBLEM?: no PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: A great room loved waking up and seeing the ports - we definitely picked the right sight of the ship for our 11 night Eastern Med Itinerary. There was one issue though - when docking the thrusters made the bed vibrate and did tend to wake us up. For this reason I am not sure I would book this room again but perhaps we are just light sleepers. Other than that it could be said it was a walk to the lifts but we don't mind a walk.

Rare Cruise Raider Posted September 2, 2013 #2028 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Library Lady....thank you for doing this. I check it often since the S-class are now my favorite cruise ships. CABIN #: 1008 DECK #: 10 CLASS: C2 AREA: Starboard, midship BED NEAR: Bathroom QUIET?: Perfectly silent BALCONY VIEW: Excellent view forward all the way to the bridge, but because just forward of the hump, could not see the aft section of the ship. This didn't matter one bit. BALCONY SIZE: huge -- 3x the normal sized balcony WIND A PROBLEM?: NO SOOT A PROBLEM?: NO PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: This was the nicest room ever; everything was just perfect. Location was perfect -- next to the library and midship elevators. Celebrity does a great job of cordoning off the hallways from the public areas, such as the library. We never heard any noise from hallway or neighboring cabins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elena7seas Posted September 24, 2013 #2036 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Ship: Solstice Deck: 11 Penthouse Cabin Number: 1506 Class: Aquaclass 2 Starboard or Port Side: Starboard Bed near balcony or bath: Balcony Quiet Cabin (With comments on problems. Note if connecting.) Reasonably quiet. We heard someone on a treadmill once at 10:30 PM, but this was faint, and I probably wouldn't have noticed it except that I was paying particular attention to sounds in the cabin, so that I could complete this report. We also heard someone drop some heavy equipment (weights?) once. The cabin is not directly under any gym equipment...I think it is under the open space in front of the forward doors in the gym. For us, the occasional overhead sound was no problem. However, there was a fair amount of vibration for short periods in the morning, possibly from docking, but usually after we were already docked, so I don't actually know the cause. Sometimes the whole cabin would shudder significantly for 3-4 minutes. Balcony View: This cabin is the third cabin from the bridge, but one deck up, so you can see over the bridge quite well. As another poster mentioned, you can see quite clearly over the bridge, but it IS there within your general view forward, if this is something that would bother you. We actually found it interesting, on the few times we saw people on the bridge. I never felt there was any impact on our privacy while on the balcony. We could see all the way forward and aft, so never felt there was any obstruction to our view. Balcony Size: Standard for this class of ship, and quite adequate for the 2 deck chairs and foot stools that are provided. Good amount of sun on the balcony. Was wind a problem: Not at all. If an aft cabin, was soot a problem: N/A Any specific problems with this cabin: The shuddering, as mentioned, was notable, but didn't really bother us, as it generally seemed to happen after 7:00 am. It's a bit of a hike to the aft of the ship, but the location is very convenient for the Spa, the Aquaspa Cafe, and the Theatre. The forward elevators always arrived quickly, no waiting, so we usually used them, and crossed the length of the ship on Deck 5 if going to dinner in Blu, or by walking outside on Deck 14, if we were going to the buffet. I actually found the extra walking a bonus. Cabin 1506 is very close to the Relaxation Room, and there is also the "secret" spiral staircase (via short hall opposite cabin 1520) that will take you directly up to the Persian Gardens and a few steps from the Salon, the Solarium and the AquaSpa Cafe. Any other comments: We had some fairly choppy seas on a few nights, and I felt the effects much more in this cabin than any other we have sailed in. (We usually sail in midships cabins, but have had a few aft cabins. This was our first forward cabin. I am very sensitive to motion, and had to take Bonine most nights while in this cabin.) The motion in the cabin was forward-to-aft, instead of side-to-side. There was quite a bit of up-and-down motion as well. I missed the gentle side-to-side rocking of the ship at bedtime, which we have always experienced in our midships cabins, so for this reason, would prefer not to book a cabin this far forward in the future. Our friends in AQ1540 and AQ1542 on this cruise never experienced any of the shuddering or motion issues, so I would book there happily, as we did like the general forward location. Excellent cabin service from the very professional Elizabeth and her assistant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only problem with this is the forward view is somewhat obstructed because the ship design of indented midship rooms. See a picture of the ship to see the indenture.

Member123 Posted October 31, 2013 #2048 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Ship: Solstice Cabin #: 1605 Deck #:11 Class: AQ1 Area: Mid - hump Bed near: Balcony Quiet?: Anytime there is an activity on the pool deck that involves music, you will hear the bass in the stateroom. On our sailing, Zumba class was held in the mornings at 9:00 for half an hour and in the afternoons at 4:00pm. Also, on the night where the Party Band played for a pool deck event, which included a Tahitian Fire Dance performance, the ceiling literally buzzed. IMO: these events could be managed and didn't detract from the enjoyment of the room overall. Balcony view: Oversized - really huge. Balcony size: Wonderul views forward and aft.
