NCL has. but they are not sharing that list. there are a couple mentioned in the cabin thread here on CC... and a few more mentioned in passing in various reviews and other threads. one such cabin that i personally experienced was 11344. avoid at all costs. many people go on the prima and never encounter any problem whatsoever with cabin noise. others are not as lucky. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Anoynmous Phoenix Posted November 18, 2023 #7 Share Posted November 18, 2023 We had three days in a cabin on 10 on the Prima and then had to move because of the lack of noise!!! They couldn't get the phone to work!! The rest of the cruise was in forward bow cabin on 9, no noise problem there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruiseny4life Posted November 18, 2023 #8 Share Posted November 18, 2023 (edited) I'm staying in 14310 on Monday. I'll report back, but have heard it is nice and quiet. Hoping the report I read is true! Edited November 18, 2023 by cruiseny4life 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sussexboy Posted November 18, 2023 #11 Share Posted November 18, 2023 We were in cabin 14100. The only noises we encountered were the wind occasionally whistling through a door seal on the balcony, and the door to the bridge area in the corridor outside slamming at all hours, but not frequently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIA We had different noise issues, under the haven sun deck and they would drag around furniture all night long. We thought it would be quiet since not under the restaurant but learned our lesson. 15916. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
66Olds442 Posted November 19, 2023 #15 Share Posted November 19, 2023 (edited) Was in 14906 a few weeks ago and there was some creaking in our room during rough seas. Otherwise, the only other noise we heard was from the overhang of the haven restaurant with chairs scraping on the floor as people stood up/sat down. While the noise was minor IMO, there are people on here who expect their room to be completely silent...

UKstages Posted November 19, 2023 #16 Share Posted November 19, 2023 oh, gosh, i haven’t read about anyone on cruise critic who expected their room to be completely silent. the ones i’ve seen complain about the prima have complained about a very persistent and specific type of noise that is known to NCL, well documented by NCL, and for which they apparently have developed a service recovery process, since it happens on nearly every cruise. if you haven’t been in one of these rooms and experienced this problem, then it’s quite easy to say that certain guests are fussy or they’re malcontents or they expect their room to be like a reading room in a library… but that’s not the case. the prima has a known manufacturing defect that affects a certain number of rooms. if you have one of these rooms, during high seas, your room will shake and rattle as if poltergeists were in the walls and ceiling. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is a "service recovery process"? Does that mean they have a process for dealing with the unhappy guest, or, they have a plan/process for fixing the problem?

Now that I think about it there were a few times that there were messages, but I don't think any of them were very important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
