Cabin 17022 · Icon of the Seas

Cabin 17022 sits on Deck 18 of Icon of the Seas, forward of midship. You are at the top of the passenger decks, so the pools and the open air are just up the stairs, and you feel the ship move more than anyone below you. You are far enough from the middle to notice a swell, but nowhere near the worst of it. We score it 6 out of 10 for steadiness.

The forward lift bank sits on the deck below, roughly 5 cabins 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, 8 out of 10.

Of the 8 cabin positions on Deck 18, this is the 7th from forward. That puts you right at the aft end of the run, where the corridor stops and the footfall dies away.

Against the rest of the ship it is quieter than 76 per cent of the 2,814 cabins on board and better placed for getting around than 98 per cent of them. It suits light sleepers and families running back to the cabin several times a day.
