Cabin E172 · Carnival Paradise

Cabin E172 is an Ocean View (category 6E1) on Carnival Paradise, 158 to 243 square feet.

Cabin E172 is an Ocean View on Deck 7, the Empress deck, of Carnival Paradise, and it sits aft of midship. You are far enough from the middle to notice a swell, but nowhere near the worst of it. We score it 7 out of 10 for steadiness.

The lift bank sits on the deck above, roughly 1 cabin 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. Quiet comes out at 8 out of 10, roughly par for this ship. For getting about, 5 out of 10.

Of the 163 cabin positions on Deck 7, this is the 103rd from forward.

The Ocean View grade runs 158-243 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.

Against the rest of the ship it is noisier than three quarters of the 1,062 cabins on board and better placed for getting around than 94 per cent of them. It suits light sleepers.
