caribophile Posted August 8, 2009 #1 Share Posted August 8, 2009 This will be our first time with RCI. Sometimes beds are an issue for us on cruise ships. How are the Jewel's mattresses? Do they offer eggcrate foam pads, or are they even necssary? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted August 8, 2009 #2 Share Posted August 8, 2009 No, eggcrates aren't needed. They have new, pillowtop mattresses...You'll sleep like a log! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrscruisequeen Posted August 9, 2009 #3 Share Posted August 9, 2009 This will be our first time with RCI. Sometimes beds are an issue for us on cruise ships. How are the Jewel's mattresses? Do they offer eggcrate foam pads, or are they even necssary? Sailed to the Baltic in May on the Jewel, and had the most comfortable bed ever on any cruise ship.:D:D We usually go with Princess and always ask for an eggcrate, but no need on the Jewel if all of the cabins have the same beds. The bottom corners are even somewhat rounded, which is really nice for walking around the bed. Jeanne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cottagemama Posted August 9, 2009 #4 Share Posted August 9, 2009 We loved our bed on the Jewel. We were in one of the hump balcony cabins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribophile Posted August 9, 2009 Author #5 Share Posted August 9, 2009 Thanks for your replies. We sailed the Caribbean Princess last year and definitely needed the eggcrate topper. So good to hear that we'll enjoy pillowtop beds on the Jewel. It sounds as though she lives up to her name! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camofwilliamsburg Posted August 9, 2009 #6 Share Posted August 9, 2009 Which cabin?

Nanatravel Posted August 9, 2009 #7 Share Posted August 9, 2009 We loved our bed on the Jewel. We were in one of the hump balcony cabins. We are booked into 7108. Any comments about that location? Is being close to the elevator a plus or minus? Nanatravel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
