What is a Promenade stateroom? The Promenade stateroom is a lot like an ocean view stateroom, in that it's a category of stateroom that offers a window and more square footage, compared to a standard inside cabin. The attraction of a Promenade stateroom is it offers bowed windows that overlook the Royal Promenade.
Midship staterooms on the lowest passenger deck are the most excellent spot to be on a cruise ship in this instance because you don't feel the vessel sway as much.
When there is a parade on the promenade or a band is playing it will be loud enough to penetrate the windows. The normal noise of people hanging out in the promenade should not be a problem. I have had a promenade cabin twice and no problems with routine noise.
Oceanview cabins can have either a rectangular window or a round porthole, which typically do not open. Most balcony cabins have floor-to-ceiling glass doors so you can still see outside even if the weather isn't good. Because balcony cabins have this additional outside space, they cost more money.
Our Experience With Royal Caribbean's Pool DecksNevertheless, that is exactly where Royal Caribbean and other cruise lines put it. Our firm is aware of over one hundred incidents where passengers have suffered slip and fall due to the dangerously slippery nature of these pool decks.
The lowest deckIn the lowest part of a cruise ship, there's a whole lot of noisy stuff so you may hear the hum of the engine, the blast of the bow thrusters and the clanging of the anchor chain. Depending on the ship, you may also feel vibrations that could make the hangers in your wardrobe rattle!
Cabins to Avoid on Quantum of the SeasMost of the balcony cabins on Deck 6 are obstructed by the lifeboats and related equipment below on Deck 5. In most cases you'll be looking at the tops of the boats and the cranes that lower them.
The most stable part of the ship is its lowest point of gravity, so on a lower deck, at the center. You'd feel a lot less motion here than, say, in a stateroom on the upper decks a long way forward or aft (towards the back of the ship).
Eastbound cruises get the most sun on the port side; westbound on the starboard side. Watching a sunset over the ocean or seeing the sun slip behind distant islands can also be a reason for a side preference. To catch sunsets, you'll want to be on the port side on northbound cruises and starboard on southbound cruises.
