Look at the deck plans--some ships sort of "bow" out in the middle---that's the "hump". Folks like them because they're convenient to the stairs and elevators! On the Radiance Class, some of the balconies are deeper than standard side balconies. They're great cabins! Not all ships have "humps!"

The area of the Freedom and Voyager class ships that "humps" out from the rest of the ship on the outside. From a hump cabins' balcony, you usually get a nice aft and forward view

Hi, Your question is not stupid at all. We all wondered what that term meant when we first heard it. :D

Pictures are worth more than words. These are the Humps on the Voyager and Radiance class ships.

 

As you can see they bow out from the ship.

These Voyager Hump cabins are the same size as any other cabin in their category and have the same size balcony.

(On the Radiance class ships especially, there are Hump cabins with bigger balconies.)

All of these cabins are in a great location, have a great view, are near the elevators and the stairs, and yet there is no extra noise because of that.

The center Hump cabins are the prime choice with the best views. ;)

This is a picture of the Mariner and the Hump cabins on one side of her. Port Side. The Starboard side of her is exactly the same as this.

 

Below is a view of the Radiance class hump cabins. You can see the balconies are quite large on some of them.

With the elevators on one side of that class ship, there are not as many of the Hump cabins.

Below is the Voyager Class and you can see the Hump cabins and balconies are all the same size. It looks exactly like this on the other side of the hump also.

That very tiny extra space you see on the balcony is actually in the cabin itself.
