Cabin 3628 · Independence of the Seas

Cabin 3628 is an Ocean View (category 3N/4N) on Independence of the Seas, 162 square feet, with a half-moon ocean view window. It sleeps up to 2. The bathroom has a shower. It connects to cabin 3626 through an interior door.

Cabin 3628 is an Ocean View on Deck 3 of Independence of the Seas, aft of midship. You are near the bottom of the passenger decks, which is the steadiest place to be, though it is a fair climb to the open air. There is some movement here, more than midship and a good deal less than the ends. Most people never think about it. We score it 7 out of 10 for steadiness.

You are right beside RCTV Studio, some 2 cabins along the corridor. Handy, though worth knowing about if you sleep lightly. Not a guest venue. This is the shipboard broadcast and video control room that produces the in-cabin television channels and the daily programming. It is marked on the plan but there is nothing to visit. Worth knowing: an equipment room, so what a neighbouring cabin gets is cooling fans and rack hum rather than people. Effectively silent. Quiet scores 5 out of 10. There is enough going on nearby that a light sleeper should think about it. For getting about, 8 out of 10.

Counting from the bow, it is the 68th cabin position of 89 along Deck 3. Deck 3 also has Royal Theater, Centrum, Studio B Ice Rink and Photo Gallery on it. There are 117 cabins along this deck, so the corridor is short and rarely busy.

An Ocean View gives you 162 square feet. You get daylight and a sense of where you are without paying balcony money. The window does not open, so it is the view but not the air.

Worth knowing before you book: Crown and Anchor pays one cruise point a night at this grade. A suite pays two, and so does sailing solo on a double occupancy fare, which is the cheaper of the two routes if you are travelling alone anyway. Checked against the line's own published terms on 8 September 2026.

It suits families running back to the cabin several times a day. It is a poor fit for anyone who wakes when a door closes.
