Cabin 5279 · Mardi Gras

Cabin 5279 is an Interior (category 4B1) on Mardi Gras, 149 to 185 square feet.

Cabin 5279 is an Interior on Deck 5 of Mardi Gras, 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. 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.

On the ship's plan Cloud 9 Spa is on the deck above, about 1 cabin along from you. A deck between you takes most of the noise out of it, and it is a short trip when you want it. Quiet comes out at 7 out of 10, roughly par for this ship. For getting about, 5 out of 10.

Counting from the bow, it is the 40th cabin position of 128 along Deck 5.

An Interior gives you 149-185 square feet. No window, which makes it the darkest and cheapest room on board and, for a lot of people, the best sleep they get all week. If waking to daylight matters to you, an ocean view is the smallest step up.

Against the rest of the ship it is noisier than three quarters of the 2,638 cabins on board, as steady in a swell as any cabin on the ship and better placed for getting around than 83 per cent of them. It suits travellers prone to seasickness. It is a poor fit for anyone who wakes when a door closes.
