Northern Light Posted February 18, 2009 #1 Share Posted February 18, 2009 We are looking at cabin 7027 that is on the Rotterdam deck and which opens directly off the forward stair/elevator area which means there will not be a wall to act as a sound buffer. To be honest, we are sound sensitive people and just wonder if pedestrian noise, or the constant dinging as an elevator arrives, would be an issue. This ship is filling up fast and we need to make a decision a.s.a.p. If anyone has ever had a cabin on the Eurodam in this location, would appreciate hearing your thoughts. Thank you. :) Sandy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wbrumel Posted February 19, 2009 #2 Share Posted February 19, 2009 We were in 8018 last week, which has the same position... I was "assigned" that cabin as a supposed upgrade. I was quite concerned about the possibility of noise since there is no wall between the elevator lobby and this cabin. It turned out to be no problem. Never heard a thing.

jtl513 Posted February 19, 2009 #3 Share Posted February 19, 2009 We once had a similarly situated cabin on a Vista, and only after we first turned out the lights to go to sleep did we notice some very muffled elevator bells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SakeDad Posted February 19, 2009 #4 Share Posted February 19, 2009 I think the ships are built well enough not to hear much elevator noise, however if you want ANY privacy:p on your balcony rest assured you will NOT get it as everyone can see your entire balcony from the elevators.:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RV traveler Posted February 19, 2009 #5 Share Posted February 19, 2009 We always pack our white noise machine for exactly that reason...we never know what cabin we'll be assigned because we always book a guarantee cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Light Posted February 20, 2009 Author #7 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Thank you to everyone who took the time to answer my question. We have decided that a 14 day cruise is too long not to get the cabin we want and this one isn't it. Thanks again and happy cruising.

Sunshine91 Posted February 21, 2009 #9 Share Posted February 21, 2009 I only read "elevator"....I'm such a blond sometimes!:rolleyes: Oh, but such a cute one! ;) All the elevator doors face each other in an elevator lobby. They don't directly face the cabin doors. We stayed in VD4045 on Noordam twice & only heard the muffled bing-bong of the arriving elevator car if standing just inside our cabin at the closet door. Further inside the cabin, at the bed, nothing. Oh, maybe occasionally late night revelers were a bit noisy, but not the elevators. They hadn't been partying. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
