We were on Queen Elizabeth from 16th to 23rd December in 1068 and loved the room. It was a lot larger than the Balconey cabin we were in the previous year. We choose this cabin because we were seldom in it and certainly we were not disturbed by the noise from the Queens room in the evening as we were in the Queens room, Theatre, Garden lounge or elsewhere enjoying the cruise not going to bed early to sleep. By the time we got to bed there was no or little noise from the Queens room or anywhere above us. We enjoyed the free room service for breakfast and found we were more than happy with the food including what we were served in the steakhouse. This was our second cruise on Queen Elizabeth as we love our first so much last year.
So this is a great location cabin if you’re out and about enjoying the evening entertainment in Queens Room. 💃🏼 I wonder if your room was under the carpeted area? Yes, totally agree, the steakhouse had the best food on board in my opinion, loved eating there. The made to order pizza was also good. What other ships have you sailed on and how do you find this one compares?
Hope you're getting fed better than we did when last on QE between Japan Alaska earlier this year. The food servings in the main dining was woeful. There were a lot host of issues on QE back then, it was very much a case of "the good, the bad and the ugly".
The food was average, except for the steakhouse. I tried to not have high expectations going into it because I couldn’t figure out how a ship of 2000 passengers and 900 crew could offer a luxury product. Bottom line is, they can’t. Glad to hear I’m not alone (because I don’t like to sound like a whinger) 🧜♀️
I can't imagine that a wee bit of beat or music would do anything other than rock me off to sleep. My wife wouldn't hear anything from about two seconds after her head hit the pillow. However if there was dancing in the Queens Room we would be there anyway. My problem would be the lack of a window. I'm quite sure our cases would fit under that bed without any problem, as they do with the beds on QM2. Perhaps you should buy cases on the basis of whether they will fit under beds and take different sizes so they can nest inside each other.
Sadly it wasn’t so much the music, it was heels stomping on a wooden floor above that disturbed us the most… perhaps the filter on my mic was too good to hear them! The configuration of the bed meant the cases couldn’t slide under from the side due to the wall location - it wasn’t the size that was the issue. On 67 cruises I’ve never had an issue fitting them under the bed. And they do already fit inside each other 💡
It was worse than the video shows, think high heels on a wooden floor above your head. Plus they had chair aerobics,Zumba, line dancing, so lots of stomping. I’m not a complainer, but when the light fittings and head board start shaking and vibrating, you know it’s an issue. I guess the trade off is, it’s a larger room. I was torn about moving but valued the space over noise because it was an interior. 🧜♀️

Cruise lines should not sell rooms that have that much noise.

Nothing worse than trying to get some sleep with all that noise!
Exactly! Lucky we had ear plugs!
