Queens Suites Location at Concierge Lounge

[elmac40]

Hi - Potentially a first time cruiser on Queen Mary 2! Next year will be our 30th wedding anniversary and are looking at a TA crossing in a Queens Suite. We are regular HAL cruisers.

 

From the suites available, some are opposite the Concierge Lounge on Deck 9 (the other remaining suites are connecting suites which I don't want).  Has anyone stayed in one of the suites beside the Concierge Lounge? I'm slightly worried about the early morning "traffic" as on other cruises some cruisers don't have a volume control! 😁. The other suite we're considering is on Deck 10 at the front.

 

Any advice on Queens suites to a Cunard newbie would be appreciated.

 

Many thanks!

I have just disembarked QM2 , I can confirm that the suites opposite the Concierge are NOT exactly opposite. I had to check this out only a few days ago for friend who has already booked one.

 

The suite doors are a good several yards away from the doors of the Concierge lounge 

I doubt you will have any problems with noise. Hope this helps. 

 

I had Queen Victoria suite (10001 deck 10) , however, this suite does not have a balcony - Balcony suite is Queen Elizabeth suite deck 10 Fwd.

The Concierge Lounge is a quiet place, and while I havent yet stayed so close to it, I wouldnt hesitate. I fact I am booked in 9033 in a future voyage which is opposite the Lounge. You can hardly hear people when you are in the corridor. I never heard noise from the corridor with the door of the suite closed. Since the lead-in to the suite is a small corridor the door is further apart from the bed area than in a normal cabin.

So grateful to you Bellboy. You reassured us tremendously. 
Hope to sail with you again  soon.

Just curious: the Q3 Queen Victoria suite (10001) is an accessible suite. Does it still have a tub, or is it shower(s) only?

Booking near the Concierge Lounge also means you can pop in for a quick expresso and pastry.snacks without going far. Coffee drinks are machine made (no barista) but still very good. The room itself is usually quiet but pax are in/out of that room and do visit the concierge during office hours. As others said, little worries about noise from the Concierge Lounge.

We have stayed near the concierge lounge several times. There is no noise whatsoever and it's a good location.

It has both . It has a free standing shower ( a sort of wet room shower)  and it also has another shower over the bath tub . I used the free standing shower which appeared to be more powerful.

We also celebrated our 30th anniversary last year on a QM2 TA in PG coming back home last year. You’ll feel a nice sense of space and calmness onboard. Good choice!
