Discovery Princess Mini Suite

[trbarton]

I’m in stateroom E510. It’s an obstructed view Mini Suite. Anyone been in this stateroom & have any photos?

 

It's my 1st cruise in a Mini Suite. 
 

Thanks!

I’m pretty sure your stateroom is a deluxe balcony, not a mini suite. Are you sure it’s on Emerald deck? Here is a link to the same stateroom on the Royal Princess if you’re wondering how the obstruction is.

Discovery does have mini suites on Emerald.

Thank you. I see that there are some aft. Perhaps OP has the wrong stateroom number as E510 is definitely a deluxe balcony. We usually get one of the rooms down the hall on the bump out with the extended balcony.

I've never heard of a obstructed mini suite.

@sunviking90, E510 is a BW Balcony cabin, not mini-suite according to Princess web site.

I just googled the cabin and the only photo I could find is from E510 on Royal (same floor print).

 

Photo of balcony did not look good to me (lifeboat right in line of site).

 

I would post pic but is copywrite so someone else can just google it.

 

Cheers

Thanks. You are right. A Deluxe Balcony, obstructed view with probably a lifeboat outside. I misread the deck plans.

These are nice staterooms. It’s great to have a couch. Is that the Solar Eclipse cruise? Enjoy!

All I can say is that I would book that cabin. The location is good. The obstruction isn't bad, since you have a good view looking out over the lifeboat. You can't see down, but that's not where the eclipse will be anyhow. 😂 And chances are that most of us who're on that cruise will need to leave our cabins to see the eclipse in full. Even if the ship rotates, a person would miss a lot of it by staying put in a cabin.

all mini suites have two tv's.

If I may ask please, what is the difference between a Deluxe Balcony and Mini Suite, please?

 

Thanks.

Here’s what I found from the Princess Web site. A mini suite is usually larger plus instead of a shower you have a bathtub. You also have 2 TV’s & a curtain separating the sleeping area from the area with the sofa & the other TV. 
 

My deluxe balcony is an Obstructed View Balcony which may have a lifeboat outside which only blocks part of your view.  
 

There is a new stateroom on some ships called the Reserve Collection Mini-Suites.

 

I'm enclosing information that is on the Princess Web Site about the Muni Suite & the new Reserve Collection Muni Suite. . 

 

Hopefully someone can post photos of their mini suite. 

 

In looking at deck plans on the Discovery I’ve found that some Mini Suites are larger than others. 
 

I hope that this helps. 
 

I have enjoyed having a sofa in the Deluxe Balcony.

Deluxe balcony rooms are smaller with a loveseat size sofa and only a shower.

Mini suites are larger,  have a larger sofa, a privacy curtain to separate sleeping/sofa areas, two tvs, one for each area, and a shower/tub combo.

Thanks to both of you for the clarification.

Do you have any photos of a Mini Suite which might help?

Just go to YouTube and search for Princess (insert ship name) mini Suite.  There are fabulous video walk throughs.
