Sailing Rivieria Aft, experiences?

[hott_michelle2001]

Have you experienced any issues sailing Riveria on Triumph at the back fo the boat? We are in room 1416 as wel as a few other cabins w family. Did you notice a lot of noise or vibrations?

We sailed Riviera aft on the Ecstasy, an older ship, years ago and it was pretty noisy. We were about 3 cabins closer to the aft than the cabin you're considering, on the inside. It didn't bother us too much, but it was definitely very noticeable, especially when we were docking in the early mornings.

 

I don't know how helpful this is since we weren't on the Triumph and all ships are different, but I thought I'd toss it out there.

I think it was a 3-day to Ensenada (on the Paradise?) that we went with a guarantee stateroom and wound up in the very last ocean view stateroom aft on the portside. We have no idea what went on at the very aft, but it sounded like a bowling ball being dropped onto a metal deck from about a 10 ft. height, at about 4-5 minute intervals. VERY noisy. Most difficult to get to sleep....but you'd be surprised what you can sleep through if you get tired enough. We went to the purser/concierge/hotel desk (whatever it is) and asked about it, but all cabins were taken, there was no moving us.

 

Oh, well! Sometimes you're the dog and sometimes you're the fire hydrant!

Thanks guys@ i hope we have a good experience. I would move cabins but were sailing with family who cant afford to move midship and we want our rooms together. I hope its not to noisy as were traveling with our 1 yr old DS for his first cruise.
