Cabin 12203 · Carnival Firenze

Cabin 12203 is a Balcony (category 8G1) on Carnival Firenze, 168 to 205 square feet plus a private balcony of 35 to 46 square feet.

Cabin 12203 is a Balcony on Deck 12 of Carnival Firenze, and it sits far forward. You are well out towards the end of the hull, which is where pitching is felt hardest. We score it 5 out of 10 for steadiness.

We give it 10 out of 10 for quiet, which is about as peaceful as this ship gets. For getting about it is 2 out of 10, so add a few minutes to everywhere you go.

Counting from the bow, it is the 2nd cabin position of 30 along Deck 12. That puts you right at the forward end of the run, where the corridor stops and the footfall dies away.

A Balcony gives you 168-205 square feet. The balcony adds another 35-46 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 livelier in a swell than most of them. It suits light sleepers. It is a poor fit for anyone who finds long corridors and stairs hard work.
