Do cruise ships provide clothes hangers?

Cruise Ships Have Hangers If you're worried that when you arrive in your stateroom there won't be enough hangers, fear not. Ships have plenty of hangers that your stateroom attendant will be happy to bring you anytime you'd like. I tend to hang most of my clothes, and often ask for extras.
