How can you get the best cabin on a cruise, no matter what grade you choose to cruise in. There are good and bad cabins what ever the category: Suite, Balcony, Oceanview and Inside stateroom. Not all cruise cabins are equal due to the design and nature of cruise ships and how they work. I share the 5 things you must do to ensure you get the best cabin and 5 things to check and insist on to avoid getting the worst cabin. Have a great cruise by following these tips. These are things I always do to get the best stateroom at any category I am cruising in.

I love the engine rumble because it reminds me of happier days, but the person I’m cruising with might not appreciate it as much if they’ve not spent years on the other side of an engine room bulkhead. 😂

I love Gary's take on things. However, he forgot one thing. Especially if you are in the front or rear and on lower decks, be aware if your cabin is above the bow thrusters. They are extremely loud. And if you plan on sleeping in, forget it. Those things will wake you up without fail. It will sound like a jet taking off.

@@justSTUMBLEDupon They are small propellers mounted at a right angle to the ship, embedded in tunnels in the hull. They provide sideways movement, making the ship more manoeuvrable. They make docking easier as without them a ship can’t turn without forward movement. With them, a ship can for example crab into or away from a dock.

I'm somewhat impervious to noise, and have never been bothered by motion in 38 nights of cruising, including an Atlantic round trip on Canberra alone when I was 15, sharing a cabin with 3 strangers to go see a solar eclipse. That was just above water line, with a round porthole bolted shut more often than not, and many times providing underwater views in rough seas. I've also had a suite with a separate bedroom on the Regal Empress (formerly Olympia). The suite was in what Gary would consider a horrific location. Front of the ship looking out on where deckhands noisily cranked the anchor and ropes at each docking. My honeymoon was on Volendam (formerly Brasil) when a tugboat strike in NYC prevented fueling, so we spent a day sunbathing in Chesapeake Bay smelling fuel being pumped onboard, and had one less day in Bermuda. Yet every memory on every cruise, was a good one, and remains so. It was always smooth sailing, whether alone, blissfully coupled, with family groups, or even with a normally-difficult girlfriend. That one was a bit of a risk, being with someone who might have been troublesome, with nowhere to escape! I now waffle between choosing a great cabin with style and optimal location, versus taking the cheapest inside cabin class that has a wifi bundle offered with it. Solo, I'll probably go cheap. Coupled, I'll probably go more classy.

The one time I did a guaranteed cabin, I elected an inside stateroom and could've been put into the worst possible situation. Instead, we were upgraded to a balcony cabin because the inside and outside staterooms were sold out. It worked out well for us.

Two cruises ago I got an upgrade that put me on the aft on the next to top level. That was the best room I've had, so chose an aft balcony on my last cruise. I have to say I prefer the aft. I don't get sea sick, and having a cabin looking out the back was easy to locate with little to no traffic in the hallways.

I’ve had good luck with guarantee cabins, paying for a balcony and getting placed in a deluxe balcony on Princess and paying for a suite guarantee and getting a sunset veranda junior suite with an enormous balcony on RCCL. But you do have to have the mindset that you’ll live with what you get if you choose that option.

Nice video as usual, thanks. Two things: If you have an inside stateroom, make your own virtual verandah by tuning the TV to the bow or stern camera, mute the volume, and watch the sun rise when you wake up. Your own balcony! And for a "free" upgrade, check out the deck plans when you book your cruise. On three fairly recent cruises, we have nailed staterooms near the "bump out" section of the ship. If your ship has this, getting a room where the "bump out" happens can result in a HUGE verandah for the same price as your neighbor with a lesser "normal" verandah! You might also get more room inside, often in an odd, but very cool looking, room layout. But beware of the location, it's often near an elevator... not an issue for us, but it might be for you.

Not all cabins on the back are bad. We had an aft facing balcony on the HAL Rotterdam, and it was amazing. We were 3 decks down from the pool deck and the way the ship was built no one could see into the balcony. It was about 2.5 times deep as a side facing balcony and it was fabulous!

pxn748 Agreed. An aft facing balcony cabins can offer a terrific view and extra balcony space ( I have booked several) however on my most recent Celebrity Silhouette cruise our balcony (and those of our neighbours) was repeatedly showered with ash from the stack. It was an issue that guest relations acknowledged. I expected the ship to make an extra effort to clean our balcony but they did not. It was constantly dirty through our 10 day cruise. I probably would not book an aft cabin again for this reason.

Once upon a time, I worked as a mate on a boat. It was not a cruise boat. But I was sleep right above the engine or should I say I would take a nap. That always put me to sleep listening to the engine. On the other hand is the engine sound changed, I’ll be awake in an instant. Of course it depends upon what kind of change. If I hear it laboring I know something is wrong. I guess I’d be a strange duck, because I would want a cabin where I could hear the engine grinding away, the heartbeat of the ship.

I heard that suites, i.e. the "best cabins" are at the very back, which is to be avoided for other reasons (noise, motion). Suites often overlook the stern pool. So any cruise will certainly be a lesson in compromise and there is really no "avoiding" everything. Also, if you are on a SHIP, listening to the anchor being lowered a handful of times is just part of the experience. Once on a holiday I specifically chose a hotel near an airport so that I could watch takeoffs and landings during breakfast and dinner on my balcony. :) Fun times.

I know, there's no perfectly located cabin. Never had a problem with guaranteed cabins, not bothered by noise at all.

Interesting ! We gave gone mostly for guaranteed cabins, usually insides and we have been fine. In fact I would say that the best sleep I ever get us in an inside cabin, they are like cosy cacoons! We got upgraded to an outside when we went to Russia and it was amazing, right at the front with extra space and a fantastic view over the bow. When we sailed into Copenhagen there were VIP guests who paid to stand up front so we got out our champagne and laughed at them as we had a better view! Like you say it is rolling the dice. I have only struggled once when MSC put us high up right near to the front, its the only time I have been seasick. I suppose in an ideal world it is better to know and I love your tip about cabins on all sides.

All good stuff in your Tips for Travellers. You have about talked me into taking my wife on a trip this early winter on HaL down to the Mexican Riviera. We went on HaL once and more recently Celebrity which we thought wonderful, but you do a good job of convincing me to give HaL another go. Thanks!
