Cat. I Zaandam

[spcl4cs_gal]

Has anyone stayed in one of these staterooms before? Should I be looking at a room on one of the higher decks or just take one on the Main Deck?

We were on the Zaandam last week - did not stay in a Cat I but I did peek in some rooms as they were being cleaned. The large inside staterooms did look quite nice with plenty of space. The Cat I are on Deck 6 or 7. We were on Deck 7 and found it very convenient. However, we did hear plenty of noise from the above Lido deck - chairs being pushed around, the band when it was playing, etc. You might do just as well on the Main Deck - the cabin should be the same. Have a fun trip!

TLA, what cabin were you in? Our family is in 7048 - 7054. We wanted adjoining cabins so will take them good or back, just curious what to expect...TIA

Arubalisa-

 

We were in 7066 under the ping pong table and lounge chair "storage" area. Your cabins are under the Lido restaurant where the tables and chairs stay put (and it is carpeted) so you shouldn't hear much noise. The Lido overhangs your balconies so you don't get much sun, which was good for me. When I wanted sun, I just went one deck up to the aft pool area!

 

Let me know if you have any other questions!

Thanks for the info. I booked #6215 for my cruise next December...there doesn't seem to be anything around it and I sure hope I'm not stuck in the midst of some noisey maintenance rooms or something. :(

TLA, thanks so much for the good news! The shade will be terrific for reading out on the balcony late afternoon while our DD is napping for late seating dinner :cool:
