Forward/midship Deck 6 away from lift lobbies
Start with accommodation-sandwiched Deck 6 sections
Look for cabins with accommodation on both Decks 5 and 7 at the same fore/aft position. Check connecting doors and the nearby tender or promenade access before choosing.
Why we flag this
The shared official plan shows cabin blocks on Decks 5, 6 and 7. This is a layout-based starting point, not a measured noise rating. Check the source plan.
Deck 7 below Deck 8 public areas
Check Deck 7 beneath pool and activity areas
Compare the cabin with the pool, sun deck, sports club and spa overhead. Pool setup, exercise and daytime footfall may matter to light sleepers.
Why we flag this
The shared Deck 8 plan places the pool, whirlpool, sun deck, sports club, OCEAN SPA and Observation Lounge above Deck 7 accommodation; individual vertical positions differ. Check the source plan.
Decks 4–5 around HanseAtrium, bar and restaurant access
Check accommodation beside or above public venues
Cabins near public-area lobbies or above the HanseAtrium footprint warrant an extra check for evening activity. Deck 5 cabins near the Lido Restaurant access may encounter dining traffic.
Why we flag this
The shared diagrams show Deck 4 accommodation near the boutique and HanseAtrium, with Deck 5 accommodation above parts of the Deck 4 public-area footprint and forward of the Lido Restaurant. This is proximity evidence, not a confirmed complaint. Check the source plan.
