Cabin 4198 · Star of the Seas

Cabin 4198 is an Ocean View on Star of the Seas, 179 to 182 square feet.

Cabin 4198 is an Ocean View on Deck 4 of Star of the Seas. You are 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 near the middle of the hull, where the ship does the least moving. In rough water that matters more than most people expect. We score it 9 out of 10 for steadiness, which puts it among the calmest rooms on the ship.

It is 5 cabins along the corridor to Music Hall. Close enough to be useful, far enough that it should not keep you awake. A two deck live music venue on decks 3 and 4, with a raised stage, a bar on each level, a dance floor below and self levelling billiard tables above. Live bands, tribute acts, karaoke and themed nights. Worth knowing: the loudest thing on the low decks. A full PA, drums and bass, plus the crack of billiard balls upstairs, running from about 8pm until well past midnight. The exposed cabins are the deck 3 oceanviews outboard of it. Quiet scores 3 out of 10. There is enough going on nearby that a light sleeper should think about it. For getting about, 7 out of 10.

Counting from the bow, it is the 40th cabin position of 109 along Deck 4. Deck 4 also has Royal Theater, Main Dining Room, Music Hall and Casino Royale on it. There are 112 cabins along this deck, so the corridor is short and rarely busy.

An Ocean View gives you 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.

On loyalty, this is a standard grade, so Crown and Anchor credits its base one cruise point a night. There are exactly two ways to double that: move up to a suite, or sail on your own on a double occupancy fare. Either pays two a night, and doing both pays three. 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, as steady in a swell as any cabin on the ship and better placed for getting around than 80 per cent of them. It suits travellers prone to seasickness. It is a poor fit for anyone who wakes when a door closes.
