10 Reasons to Book an INSIDE CABIN on a Cruise Ship

#Cruise

In this video, I’m going to share with you why I usually choose to stay in an Inside, or Interior, Stateroom or Cabin on a cruise ship, and why I think you should, too!

I’ve spent hundreds of nights on cruise ships, and I often love to cruise in a cabin with no window. Let me tell you WHY!

Enjoyed several of your very informative videos, however, I'm a balcony cabin lover all the way! You make some very valid arguments for an inside cabin, but nothing beats watching the ocean going by, seeing the sunrise while having morning coffee, and the sunset with a feeling of that salty air on your face. I enjoy being able to see where we are and where we're going. There's also that rare opportunity to see dolphins or a whale! Thank you for the wonderful videos!

Solo traveler and happy inside. For all the same reasons. Some said I was nuts for taking an inside cabin to Alaska. But I was able to do 14 days inside for less than 7 nights with a balcony. And the public decks gave me far better views of the awesome scenery than I would have had from some small balcony off a room.

I have to say I’m grateful for lots of people who prefer inside rooms, thus making ocean view rooms available even if they’re somewhat higher priced. Even a small window would be good!

I have tried but I hated inside cabins. I cannot be in air conditioning all the time, I need fresh air. I hate how dark they are or artificial light, nothing like a bright sunny ocean view from my balcony. And finally I need the balcony space to relax and get away from the crowds and enjoy my private view

We use to always book balcony cabins. Tried interior and now always book inside for several reasons. #1 reason is noisy people on their balcony. We had to move cabins because of loud people on their balcony.#2, Interior is perfect for sleeping because it is so dark #3, don't feel pressured to stay in cabin. #4, lower price. # always pick my cabin to make sure we don't have noise from above, below or beside. Yes, we can do that with balcony but it will cost way more. We have an interior booked for British Isle cruise in spring. No point having a balcony since it will be night most of the time when sailing. We can also use savings on excursions to explore ports.

We have cruised for 40 years and ALWAYS had interior cabin. But much has changed in that time, one of those things is the available space to lounge on the Promenade deck. Ships have less outside access now. TOO often we are struggling to find a seat. The chair hogs at the pool have come down to this area too! Also, it depends on what KIND of cruise we are on...If it is to new ports and exciting itinerary, then inside for sure because we are rarely there! But much of the time we just want to sleep late, eat, relax and read...while watching the sea! So we have discovered that we love the balconies for that. The other thing I would like to see you mention... is the possibility of getting a BAD balcony cabin. Some are forward facing and very windy, some are too near the pool deck (and noise), some have weird situation, like solid metal walls where you cant see thru when you are sitting, and some are above the smoking area! We definitely 'you tube' specific rooms on the ship before we book a balcony, you will be surprised how much you can learn ahead! Thank you for your video!

I try to cruise 2 or 3 times a year, but have trouble finding people to go with me that can take that much time off. So, I am solo much of the time. I am going on NCL in a few months and trying out the studio cabin. When I've stayed in an interior cabin, I use the bridge cam on the TV to bring in natural light at sunrise so I don't sleep too late! That is the only problem with interior cabins - it is so dark and quiet that I can sleep the day away!

[BGCAMO-hd]

Only balconies for us. It’s one thing I really love about cruising.

[nancymagee]

I am a solo traveler and ALWAYS stay in an inside stateroom. You hit the nail on the head. Give me the quietness. And you don't always get a balcony with a view. If you dock portside an have a starboard cabin, you still get an ocean view. So why pay several hundred dollars more. The promenades are free for all. And I also object to "solo supplements" and usually cruise NCL solo staterooms. Nice job with your video

[poodlebone]

I've only been on 6 cruises so far. The first one was in a club balcony on NCL and I loved it. We had 4 adults in there so the balcony was very much used! Next was in an Ocean View on the Prima, a really nice cabin! The rest were all inside. I enjoyed every cruise equally. I stayed in a solo cabin on NCL and absolutely loved it, even more than a regular inside cabin. Except for that first cruise I spent very little time in any of the cabins. My next cruise with my sister is in 2 months and we will be in an inside cabin.

[wolchfam]

I agree. We almost always stay in inside cabins. When we are in the cabin we are changing clothes, watching the television or sleeping. No need for a window or balcony.

[HappyPines]

I agree with you!!! I've been on more than 50 cruises and years ago I thought the bigger and better and more "balcony-ish" a cabin was, the better. I recently completely changed my mind - for ALL of the reasons you mentioned!!! Excellent video.

[davidperry]

For me, it depends on the climate the cruise goes to. I prefer inside cabins for warmer climate cruises because nothing beats a nice cool room and a pitch black nap from getting heat exhaustion or a sunburn on the lido deck. On cooler climate cruises, I prefer a balcony because I like waking up to a breeze in the 60s or low 70s.

[rdgreeley]

Darkness and quietness are essential for me to sleep! Mid-ship interior for me! Great video!

[debrathomson]

Loved you video. We have just come off our 2nd cruise on the Queen Elizabeth this week. A year ago we were in Balcony cabins and this time we cruised in Deluxe Inside Cabins. All 5 of us preferred the Inside cabins. We had as much room in both types of cabins with the inside being more useful for us and not wasted balcony space. We were seldom in the cabin and if we wished to view the ocean views it was all around us so just left the cabin and viewed it elsewhere. Our next cruise we will sail Inside again as makes so much more sense.

On an inside room, I always put the TV on showing the ships forward camera, and leave it on, , In your cabin as it gets dark so does the TV over night as it gets lighter so does your TV then it is morning you have not expericenced a dark interiour cabin but normal daylight

[amberbanks]

you are the most in depth content creator when it comes to learning about cruises. Ive been watching hundreds of videos in the last few weeks, and I"m so glad to have found your channel.

[BethRignell]

I took my first solo cruise and my first inside cabin in November and it was fabulous. I loved my inside cabin. My husband and I want to go back to Alaska, and I think we'll do inside this time since we had a balcony already. I didn't feel like I missed out on anything being on the inside. We have to fly to cruise so if it means we get to cruise once a year vs. once every other I'm totally about doing inside cabins!

[fredbatchelder]

I always opt for the inside cabin. Almost all the time the cruise line offers me a Balcony for a small (Not the $1, 000 you normally pay) fee. And even got bumped a few times for no charge into a balcony. I do prefer the inside for the darkness (I put a nightlight in the bathroom), great A/C or heat control, quiet and GREAT sleep! Been to most rooms and by far my favorite is the inside.
