Cabin 5226 · Carnival Panorama

Cabin 5226 is a Havana Interior (category HA1) on Carnival Panorama, 185 square feet.

Cabin 5226 is a Havana Interior on Deck 5, the Promenade deck, of Carnival Panorama, well aft. You are well out towards the end of the hull, which is where pitching is felt hardest. This far aft you may also pick up a hum from the propellers, usually at night when the ship is making speed between ports. Some people never notice it, others find it soothing, a few cannot ignore it. We score it 6 out of 10 for steadiness.

On the ship's plan the lift bank is on the deck below, about 6 cabins along 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. We give it 10 out of 10 for quiet, which is about as peaceful as this ship gets. For getting about it is 4 out of 10, so add a few minutes to everywhere you go.

Counting from the bow, it is the 14th cabin position of 20 along Deck 5.

A Havana Interior gives you 185 square feet. No window, which makes it the darkest and cheapest room on board and, for a lot of people, the best sleep they get all week. If waking to daylight matters to you, an ocean view is the smallest step up.

Against the rest of the ship it is as quiet as anything on board and better placed for getting around than 94 per cent of them. It suits light sleepers. It is a poor fit for anyone who finds long corridors and stairs hard work.
