Upgrade to a mini suite??? Yay or Nay

[new2cruisin2018]

Mother in Law offered to pay the upsell offer fee to go form our deluxe balcony to a mini suite. Is there any reason not to do it? 2 adults/ 2 kids

For 2 adults and 2 kids in the same cabin...then yes go with the upgrade. You will appreciate any extra room you can get. Plus the minisuite has 2 tv's.

4 people? Do it in a heartbeat. You will really appreciate the extra space with 4 of you. For 2 people--debatable. Depends on how much the upcharge is.

I would do it for 2 in a heartbeat just for the bathroom alone. For 4 people there is not question!

Yes.

 

We had a balcony room on our last Princess cruise (3 adults) and took the mini-suite upsell. Sooooo worth it.

The mini-suite may be a problem for people with mobility issues. It has a shower in tub which may be difficult for some people to step into. If this is not a concern, then it definitely would provide more room for four people.

With 2 kids, definitely do it. What is the cost?

[new2cruisin2018]

$149 /pp. I just have to call to confirm it is only per adult in the room.

DO IT! You won't regret it. I just LOVE the Princess Mini's.

[Host CJSKIDS]

If you want the upsell, you need to call quickly as they can go quickly. You leave a message and they will get back to you if there are any cabins left to be unsold. Get your name on the list, you can always say you changed your mind when they call if you don't want it.

The upsell price is for the first 2 in the cabin, the others don't have pay it. So it would cost you $298.00 total.

DO IT!!

Absolutely. With 4 it is highly recommended.

[Micahs Grandad]

Would do it in a heartbeat

[Clownfish Cruiser]

We always book a mini for just 2 of us! We need our space! We cruised with our 3 kids one time years ago and were crammed in that cabin like sardines....

[Eagle_and_hawk]

I hoped you were able to call and get that upgrade while you could as we would have jumped on it. With four in a cabin, it will be much nicer.

Go for it

[Ron the Rev]

Take it, take it, take it. Unless you cant get into a tub as there are no walk in showers.

$149pp is a good price. We were offered the upsell for $299pp which was very close to what it would've been if we had paid full price for the mini from the beginning. :rolleyes:

The premium balcony rooms are already a great size as far as cruise cabins go. The difference I've found between the premium balcony and the mini suite is a slightly larger sofa (3 cushions vs 2) and the larger bathroom (tub/shower vs just shower). You said the upsell is $149pp but you didn't mention for how many days. If it is a shorter cruise, the money might be more fun to go towards a specialty restaurant.

[new2cruisin2018]

Thank you for all the great input. I left a message this weekend, hopefully I get the call back Monday and the room is still available.

We had an upsell offer last week for 199pp for 7 nt Regal Prin cruise -- we booked a mini for a 10 night Royal Prin cruise, but felt that this time the 199pp could be better applied to our drinks & gratuities, & perhaps a specialty restaurant.

I also think the storage is much better in a mini suite than in a deluxe balcony. To put the love seat in the DB they cut a lot of vanity/drawer space. The mini suite also has a wider cabinet so you gain storage there with bigger shelves. That may not matter to some, but to someone who hates clutter and likes to put everything away it’s a big deal![emoji16]
