Bed size in cabins for "solo" cruisers?

[Hflors]

Anyone who has sailed in one of these solo cabins what size was the bed?   My confirmation says twin.  The pic online looks like a full.  Also does HAL still have a get together for solo travelers?  I lost my husband last July and I am thinking of taking a cruise as a solo.  I am hoping to maybe find a group of solo travelers and hopefully we will have some things in common.  Thanks for any info.

Unless things have changed on HAL which I am cruising with the first time in May you can have the twins put together and it becomes a queen.

I am a solo traveller and on my booking it shows a queen bed.

Call your TA or HAL - whoever you booked with and have them change the booking.

Hope this helps.

Because of COVID wonder if they will still have solo meet and greets.

I booked it on hal's website and my comformation says twin, as if there was only one bed.   I need to go back and check it out again.  I am hoping , like you that there will be a meetup and greet for solos.   Thanks for the response.  Hopeyou you have a great cruise.

Three HAL ships (Koningsdam, Rotterdam, and Nieuw Statendam) each have about 14 solo cabins which are different from regular cabins.  When I first saw this thread I was thinking twin vs queen but I think @Hflors is right and it's a full which is bigger than a twin but smaller than a queen.

It's 12 solo staterooms (6 on port, 6 on starboard).  The bed is one mattress - not something that can split.  It's slightly smaller than a queen, so I'd say a full/double.  Despite the confusion HAL's wording creates, it's not a single twin bed or 2 twins pushed together like in the regular staterooms.  

 

Be aware these staterooms vary in size quite a bit.  I've stayed in one of the largest ones (1014, 1011) and the difference between them and regular oceanview staterooms is not really noticeable (other than not having a sofa - there's a big empty space where it might have gone.  They get smaller the more forward you go, with the 2 smallest being around 126 square feet - that's very small!

There are photos of several of them on the site that shouldn't be mentioned here: Pinnacle Class | HAL Cruiser Information (halfacts.com)

 

The bed appears to be roughly double size in the photos.

I believe the size of the beds in the solo cabins is Super Single or 3/4 bed

 While I was on Rotterdam I took these two quick pictures of one of the solo rooms during change over day.
