Cabin 9370 · Mardi Gras

Cabin 9370 is an Extended Balcony (category 8J1) on Mardi Gras, 185 to 205 square feet plus a private balcony of 60 square feet.

Cabin 9370 is an Extended Balcony on Deck 9 of Mardi Gras, and it sits midship. This is the steady part of the ship. When it gets lumpy, midship is where you want to be. We score it 9 out of 10 for steadiness, which puts it among the calmest rooms on the ship.

On the ship's plan Mardi Gras Theater is two decks down, about 12 cabins 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. We give it 10 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.

Counting from the bow, it is the 102nd cabin position of 218 along Deck 9. You are about as central as the corridor gets, so it is a similar walk whichever way you turn out of your door.

An Extended Balcony gives you 185-205 square feet. The balcony adds another 60 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 quiet as anything on board and 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.

Scored by Cruise Ship Wiki using model v1.8, from the position of this cabin relative to every public space on the ship. Each part is out of 10.
