Queen Victoria. Cabins 4079 & 4083.

Has anybody stayed in the obstructed view cabins 4079 or 4083 on deck 4. Cabin 4079 appears to be between lifeboats but obsructed by the lifeboat gantry while 4083 appears to give a reasonable view over the back of the lifeboat. Which is likely to be best for natural light and viewing weather purposes. Many thanks.

We are in 4083 next month so I'll report back.

The Cunard website has pictures of the obstructed views

They show the port side but you can get a good idea

Just noticed that the OP was travelling in 2011 !

Yes I just noticed the OP was from 7 years ago! Unfortunately the photos aren't much help as there isn't a port side mirror image of 4083. In fact does anyone know what is opposite 4083? On the deck plan it just shows a big white space.

There are cabins there, usually used by entertainment.

Do not book an adjacent stateroom to a blank space. This us because "Singers", and one uses the term loosely, have the annoying need to loudly practice their scales and songs for upto 1 hour before showtime, also sometimes after. :eek:

Then there are the occasional post show gatherings of the little Divas.

Thanks for the replies. It's a bit late as the stateroom has been booked for 18 months. Pre show practise won't bother us but I'll keep an eye (and ear!) on any late night shenanigans!

Not so. There are no cabins opposite 4083. The area is just for crew - for instance they take the luggage through there on the night before disembarkation. 4083 was a great choice - just neighbours either side and nobody across the corridor.

That's good to know, thanks for reporting back.
