Cabin 4180 · Star of the Seas

Cabin 4180 is an Ocean View on Star of the Seas, 179 to 182 square feet.

Cabin 4180 is an Ocean View on Deck 4 of Star of the Seas. You are forward 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. You are far enough from the middle to notice a swell, but nowhere near the worst of it. We score it 8 out of 10 for steadiness.

You are practically next door to the forward lift bank, 2 cabins along. Nothing on board is a shorter walk. The price is footsteps past your door and the lift chiming at odd hours. The forward lift and stair lobby on deck 4. Star uses destination control: you choose your deck at the panel outside and it tells you which car to take, so there are no buttons inside the cars. The lobby is also the main stair landing for this end of the ship. Worth knowing: destination control panels are outside the lift, not inside it. Cabins immediately beside a lobby hear doors and voices at every hour, and the lobbies are busiest just after a show finishes. Quiet scores 3 out of 10. There is enough going on nearby that a light sleeper should think about it. For getting about, 8 out of 10.

Of the 109 cabin positions on Deck 4, this is the 17th from forward. You share Deck 4 with Royal Theater, Main Dining Room, Music Hall and Casino Royale. There are 112 cabins along this deck, so the corridor is short and rarely busy.

The Ocean View grade runs 179-182 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.

Against the rest of the ship it is noisier than three quarters of the 2,813 cabins on board, steadier in a swell than 86 per cent of them and better placed for getting around than 98 per cent of them. It suits travellers prone to seasickness and families running back to the cabin several times a day. It is a poor fit for anyone who wakes when a door closes.
