Equinox Deck 11

[sunlover5]

I apologize if this has been asked, but I have googled everywhere to try and find an answer.  We are thinking of bidding on an upgrade to an Aqua cabin.  We have looked at available cabins and a few are under the fitness center.  I cannot find any reviews of anyone who had stayed in this area or on deck 11?  We are trying to weigh the pros and cons.  Thank you for any information you can give me on noise if it can be heard, etc.  We have never sailed in forward cabins either.  Not sure that would be a big deal to us but curious what others think.  Thank you again, I appreciate it.

If you look at  the S Class Cabin sticky at the top of this forum, you can see comments from folks about those cabins.

 

Click on Page 1 and there will be a link to the spreadsheet.  Click on the top of columns in the spreadsheet to sort the entries. For example, click on Ship and it will sort the ships...then scroll down to deck 11 on the Equinox...

 

 

ETA: Looks like 1544 is a bad one...

We just got off Equinox this week. We stayed in cabin 1547 which is on the port side forward on the 11th  floor.  We were under the aqua Cafe and Solarium.    The room was very quiet and we enjoyed the location and the cruise and of course Blu.  I would have no hesitation to book this room again.

Stay away from the more forward cabins on the starboard side of deck 11 as they will be under the treadmills in the gym. Noisy.

I"v stayed on deck 11 and I think noise will be dependent on what is over the top of you cabin.   Most cabins can be quiet while others close to bars,  Spa Cafe  and pool you might hear early morning carts moving with ice, glasses and dishes.  Also sometime in the evening areas they move chairs for steam cleaning. 

 

Also - Sometimes in the afternoon or evening you may hear noise from the bands playing loudly at the pool, along with line dancing etc 

 

Also remember the Upper Suites are on Deck 11 also and all that I've been in are very quiet as there are rooms above.

 

Anything aft of 1605 - 1610 should be quiet as there are cabins over

With a Move Up bid you are rolling the dice.  There are some AQ that are noisy like the ones already mentioned under the treadmills in the fitness center.

Stayed in Aqua cabin on port side forward deck11. It was very quiet.

Unless one is early riser (fitness center opens at 6am on the 'Nox) and/or a heavy sleeper, I'd pass on bidding on any rooms that can get me under the fitness center

We just got off the equinox yesterday 11/21 and stayed in cabin 1606 which was under the oceanview cafe.  quiet cabin except for a one or 2 X faintly hearing a chair.   we had an extended balcony which was nice as well.

I recently stayed on Deck 11, starboard, under the solarium, close to the stairs…very quiet and convenient. #1552, nice deep protected balcony. 
 

I see I posted earlier, but added the cabin # here…sorry for the double post.
