epc3099 Posted November 14, 2014 #1 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Booked a Balcony GTY and just got the cabin assigned. It is VA8114 in the NA, which is right below the restaurant. Would like to know what is the noise level coming from above. Any information will be greatly appreciated.

rkacruiser Posted November 15, 2014 #3 Share Posted November 15, 2014 You will probably be OK, but it certainly would not be my choice of a location. That is the problem of a GTY reservation. Sometimes one wins; sometimes, not so much. Have a pleasant and safe voyage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Forums We are still waiting on our cabin assignment for our cruise on Dec. 8 on the Zuiderdam. When is your cruise date? I am just trying to get an idea of when we may receive our cabin assignment. (Hopefully a great upgrade!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freestyling Posted November 15, 2014 #5 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Our Friends had 8112 and LOVED it. They had no noise, noticed no ship movement and claose to elevators. Have a Great cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtl513 Posted November 15, 2014 #6 Share Posted November 15, 2014 (edited) We loved our N.A. deck 8 verandah cabin too, as the Lido overhang gave more shade on the balcony than you usually get. Also the balcony is 7 ft deep compared to 6 on most verandahs. We had no significant noise overhead. Edited November 15, 2014 by jtl513 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cayman09 Posted November 15, 2014 #7 Share Posted November 15, 2014 We were in 8106 and loved it. No noise and an easy hop up to the Lido. The large balcony is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epc3099 Posted November 15, 2014 Author #8 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Thank you all for your feedback. At the time we booked GTY was the only option. We feel much better now! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveOKC Posted November 15, 2014 #12 Share Posted November 15, 2014 I like the cabins right below the Lido dining area. I avoid those below the Lido pool area(s). DaveOKC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearInStPete Posted November 15, 2014 #13 Share Posted November 15, 2014 It's doubtful you will have any issues at all. If you are a light sleeper and easily awakened a rule of thumb is avoid a cabin underneath a public space or near an elevator lobby. I have had to actually pay attention to hear any noise from above in my deck 8 cabins. I often book GTY cabins and get great values without issues, but I am not a light sleeper.

catl331 Posted November 16, 2014 #14 Share Posted November 16, 2014 avoid under the kitchen on the ships that have rooms there. Busy all night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveOKC Posted November 16, 2014 #15 Share Posted November 16, 2014 avoid under the kitchen on the ships that have rooms there. Busy all night I doubt that any of the balcony cabins (like the OP has) are under the kitchen - more like under the dining area. The OP's cabin number appears to be in a good area IMO.

sansterre Posted November 17, 2014 #16 Share Posted November 17, 2014 We are below the Maasdam's Lido and rarely hear anything from above. Once i two weeks, I heard chairs moving or something similar - but never have had trouble sleeping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
