Janet987 Posted January 20, 2014 #2105 Share Posted January 20, 2014 SHIP: Celebrity Reflection CABIN #: 1548 DECK #: 11 CLASS: Aqua Class, AQ2 AREA: near forward elevators BED NEAR: Balcony QUIET?: Very quiet, no sounds from neighbors or pair door, hallway, elevator or on balcony. On Reflection this cabin is Located under last cabin before the deck above is the gym, but that "motion" room rarely used anyway. BALCONY VIEW: Unobstructed at sides and no overhang. BALCONY SIZE: Normal WIND A PROBLEM?: No, protected when the vessel is moving. SOOT A PROBLEM?: No PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: Located on a quiet hallway with the Relaxation Room at front. First time stayed in the forward section of AQ rather than aft section under cabins. Good to be closer to Relaxation Room and Persian Garden, which we used often and was never crowded. Aft rooms are nearer to stairs to buffet and elevators to Blu, so either end of this deck have advantages as long as under another cabin for quiet above.

whami Posted January 20, 2014 #2106 Share Posted January 20, 2014 SHIP: Celebrity Reflection CABIN #: 1552 DECK #: 11 CLASS: Aqua Class, A1 AREA: near forward elevators - starboard BED NEAR: Balcony QUIET?: Yes BALCONY VIEW: Unobstructed, but Celebrity's web site lists it as partially obstructed-not sure why BALCONY SIZE: Extra large since it is the first cabin where the ship starts to indent. WIND A PROBLEM?: No SOOT A PROBLEM?: No PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: I want this cabin every time. Loved the large balcony. My travelling companion has a fear of heights and often can't use the balcony on a ship. He was fine with this one since the depth allowed him to sit further from the rail. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BALCONY VIEW: Good to see where we had been, but not for where we were going! LOL BALCONY SIZE: Very big, more than enought room for 4 of us to enjoy. WIND A PROBLEM?:No SOOT A PROBLEM?: No PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: We really like being close to the rear elevators and stairs. Bring the storage cube's for the area over the bed, they make things so much easier to put away and get out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Fltravelers Posted January 23, 2014 #2109 Share Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) SHIP: Equinox CABIN #: 8199 DECK #: 8 CLASS: 1A AREA: Forward of port side hump BED NEAR: Balcony QUIET?: Yes, very. BALCONY VIEW: Forward and aft due to configuration of balcony which was almost a triangle BALCONY SIZE: oversized but not as big as cabin 9197 next door WIND A PROBLEM?: no SOOT A PROBLEM?: no PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: We loved this cabin and I preferred the bed near the balcony having had it by the bath on 3 previous S-class cruises. It was much easier to access the closet and it was nice to see the view from the bed. Also, the cabin seemed much larger Edited January 23, 2014 by 2Fltravelers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirsten T Posted January 24, 2014 #2110 Share Posted January 24, 2014 SHIP: Equinox CABIN #: 9241 DECK #: 9 CLASS: C2 AREA: 3rd cabin aft side of hump, port side BED NEAR: Bath QUIET?: Very quiet BALCONY VIEW: Good view aft; looking forward you can only see the back side of the hump. BALCONY SIZE: VERY large, room for table, 2 reclining chairs and footrests plus a ton of open space WIND A PROBLEM?:No SOOT A PROBLEM?:No Comments: Far enough from elevators/stairs to be very quiet; no service closets nearby. But close enough to stairs to be convenient. One night a large group of smokers congregating outside on deck 5 was noisy and we could smell the smoke, but only because A) there was no wind and very calm seas - unusual - and B) they were inconsiderate morons. Never a noise or smoke issue the other 9 days/nights. We loved this cabin and booked it again for next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BALCONY VIEW: Great view, with a lot of daylight (no overhang) and almost 100% sky view at night. BALCONY SIZE: Good size.

The room could be connect to the neighbor if it is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To look forward, you need to stand at the railing at the far left of the balcony and lean out. BALCONY SIZE: Probably about 3 times the size of a standard balcony. Table, 2 chairs with foot-stools looked almost lost. WIND A PROBLEM?: No SOOT A PROBLEM?: No PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: Very convenient close to elevators. Loved the large balcony and being able to look straight down to the water. ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amibelle Posted January 26, 2014 #2113 Share Posted January 26, 2014 SHIP: Reflection CABIN #: 6231 DECK #: 6 CLASS: 2C AREA: Mid Ship is right above Bistro on 5 ($5 pay restaurant) so sometimes would see people on deck below, but it was very quiet. This was a great location for easy access to most areas of the ship. Don't worry about elevator noise, there is a wall in between that blocks out all noise. BED NEAR: is bear balcony (couch is beside bath) QUIET?: yes BALCONY VIEW: Uobstructed BALCONY SIZE: normal size WIND A PROBLEM?: no, it seemed pretty protected from wind, even on days that we left deck 14/15 due to wind. SOOT A PROBLEM?: no, not at all PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: the bathroom smelled faintly of mildew for most of the cruise, although it looked very clean. (i used airfresher and we were fine).

Rare Alsmez Posted January 26, 2014 #2115 Share Posted January 26, 2014 SHIP: Reflection CABIN #: 1524 DECK #: 11 CLASS: AQ2 Accessible AREA: Starboard Forward. Very convenient to the back staircase leading to the Persian Gardens. BED NEAR: Right in the center of the room QUIET?: Mostly quiet, but there was occasional (loud) noise from the Motion Room/gym area above. BALCONY VIEW: Unobstructed BALCONY SIZE: Regular depth but extra wide due to width of accessible room. WIND A PROBLEM?: No SOOT A PROBLEM?: No PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: AQ accessible rooms do not have the jetted shower panel in the bathroom, just a handheld showerhead along with the regular fixed showerhead.

lovedecruise Posted January 27, 2014 #2116 Share Posted January 27, 2014 SHIP: Celebrity Solstice CABIN #: 7136 DECK #: 7 CLASS: 2B AREA: Forward BED NEAR: Bath QUIET?: Ship generated noise was minimal, human noise was more noticeable - see comment in problems section BALCONY VIEW: Good with no obstructions BALCONY SIZE: Normal with 2 chairs and table WIND A PROBLEM?:No SOOT A PROBLEM?:No PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: We chose this stateroom as it had rooms below and above it. One thing we never considered, was the configuration of the room above us. As it was a family stateroom, there were a number of children in this room and we were constantly listening to running feet, jumping and banging and all manner of noises, sometimes quite late. A quiet room, is dependent on your neighbours, not only surrounding you, but above and below you also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tfrcal Posted January 28, 2014 #2117 Share Posted January 28, 2014 SHIP: Reflection CABIN #: 9374 DECK #: 9 Panorama CLASS: concierge AREA: Aft Starboard BED NEAR: Bathroom QUIET?: Yes BALCONY VIEW: Good forward, no view back BALCONY SIZE: Larger than standard size WIND A PROBLEM?:No SOOT A PROBLEM?:No PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: This is the last cabin on the starboard side. As such, it is a long way from the elevator. The balcony is like an aft mini hump. It juts out like the hump balconies and thus you get a great view forward. However, there is no view back because of the bulk head. Loved the larger balcony but the distance from the elevator would be a deal breaker if there are mobility issues.

MKellyUtah Posted January 31, 2014 #2118 Share Posted January 31, 2014 (edited) SHIP: Silhouette CABIN #: 6302 DECK #: 6 CLASS: 2C AREA: starboard near aft BED NEAR: bathroom QUIET?: yes BALCONY VIEW: partially obstructed, 8-10' overhang over a restaurant, didn't bother us once at sea BALCONY SIZE: seemed large to us, deep, plenty of room for the two chairs & table WIND A PROBLEM?: no SOOT A PROBLEM?: no PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: nice room, obstructed view straight down didn't bother us, long walk to stairs / elevators but we planned on that; overhang above made it very private (no one could see us or vice-versa unless we were leaning on the balcony railing); this might be a good "peace-of-mind" cabin for people with small children --- even if a tyke were to climb over the balcony, there is a worker's railing and at least 8-feet to the edge of the overhang Edited January 31, 2014 by MKellyUtah typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanineM Posted February 3, 2014 #2119 Share Posted February 3, 2014 SHIP: Silhouette CABIN #: 1503 DECK #: 11 CLASS: Aqua Class 2 AREA: Port --- waaaayyyy forward BED NEAR: Balcony QUIET?: Yes, except for during the aerobics classes on a couple of sea days. You could hear some banging from people who aren't light on their feet. BALCONY VIEW: See attached photo. The bridge is on the deck below, and this was a slight obstruction. Otherwise, absolutely clear view. This is not a balcony for naked sunbathing or doing anything you don't want seen :p The bridge can't see on to the balcony, but if you lean forward you are in full view. BALCONY SIZE: Normal size with two loungers & foot rests plus a table WIND A PROBLEM?:No SOOT A PROBLEM?: No PROBLEMS/COMMENTS: This cabin is a long walk from an elevator. It is one door from the Relaxation Room and Spa area. If you plan to use the Persian Garden it's really convenient. One night when the seas were a bit rough this cabin had a fair bit of movement - but then it's at the front of the ship on a higher deck, so this should be expected. Some posters have indicated that this cabin gets more sun because it doesn't have an overhang, but we didn't find that to be true. There is no overhang, but there is still a ceiling that blocks full direct sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisebunny32 Posted February 7, 2014 #2125 Share Posted February 7, 2014 SHIP: Silhouette CABIN #: 9268 DECK #: 9 CLASS: A-1 AREA: hump cabin steps away from elevator BED NEAR: verandah QUIET?: yes BALCONY VIEW: side and towards back BALCONY SIZE: a little bigger than a normal size WIND A PROBLEM?:nope SOOT A PROBLEM?:none, but some on the aft of the ship the last day PROBLEMS/COMMENTS:This cabin is in a great location, just off the elevators and next to the card room. It was still quiet. I loved the location. You didn't have to walk miles down the hall. The only thing is there was a closet outside the room that the room attendents went in and out and sometimes when the door shut you thought someone was coming into the room. __________________ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
