Sail Date: Dec 2010
Cabin: Concierge Class 3

This was our first cruise on this class of ships, and we loved it. We were a little concerned that it would feel too big or too crowded, but never found the number of passengers to be a problem. The public areas of the ship were beautiful and quite step above the other ships we have been on.

Embarkation: There were lines for concierge, suites, AQ, elites, that seemed pretty short, but the ones for decks 7 to 10 were LONG! Thankfully concierge line moved fast. Once past the check in, they had you moving in lines pretty well and we were on the ship less than one hour after we left the Renaissance Hotel.

Cabin: Our cabin was nice, lots of storage, the shower was roomy, the balcony with footstools was a treat. On the con side, it was a tight squeeze between the bed and the wall, the desk/vanity area was very small and blocked the balcony access. Lastly, I am prone to sea sickness, but take Bonine all the time when on a cruise, I really noticed the movement of the ship and got close to feeling sea sick a few times- guessing it was because we were so forward, so next time we will choose mid-ships.

Cabin Review

Concierge Class 3

Cabin C3

Solstice 1016- Not too far from forward elevators, they always seemed less busy than the mid-ships elevators. The bed is near the bath, and it is a tight squeeze around it. The vanity/desk area blocks the balcony access when being used. Can see the bridge and the officers from balcony- that was interesting! Quiet room. If prone to motion sickness, either be prepared to take medicine 24 hours a day or move to a mid-ships room. When the ship goes fast, the beds really move around!
