Cabin 5185 · Carnival Pride

Cabin 5185 is a Balcony (Obstructed View) (category 7A1) on Carnival Pride, 168 to 205 square feet plus a private balcony of 35 to 46 square feet.

Cabin 5185 is a Balcony (Obstructed View) on Deck 5, the Upper deck, of Carnival Pride, and it sits midship. That is about as close to the ship's pivot point as you can get, and in a swell you will feel it less here than anywhere else on board. We score it 9 out of 10 for steadiness, which puts it among the calmest rooms on the ship.

The lift bank sits two decks down, roughly 10 cabins along the ship from you. You will still walk to the stairs or the lift to reach it, so treat it as a landmark rather than a neighbour. We give it 9 out of 10 for quiet, which is about as peaceful as this ship gets. For getting about it is 3 out of 10, so add a few minutes to everywhere you go.

Of the 94 cabin positions on Deck 5, this is the 42nd from forward. You are about as central as the corridor gets, so it is a similar walk whichever way you turn out of your door.

The Balcony (Obstructed View) grade runs 168-205 square feet. The balcony adds another 35-46 on top of that. A balcony buys you outside space of your own and, on sea days, somewhere to sit that is not the pool deck. It is the step up most people make, and the one they find hardest to give up again.

Against the rest of the ship it is as steady in a swell as any cabin on the ship. It suits light sleepers and travellers prone to seasickness. It is a poor fit for anyone who finds long corridors and stairs hard work.
