Cabin 7231 is an Ocean Suite (category OS1) on Carnival Glory, 275 to 287 square feet plus a private balcony of 46 to 85 square feet. There is a double sofa bed.

Cabin 7231 is an Ocean Suite on Deck 7, the Empress deck, of Carnival Glory, and it sits far forward. Out at this end you feel the sea. In rough water the movement here is noticeably stronger. Right up in the bow, a head sea can send a shudder through the hull that midship guests never feel at all. We score it 4 out of 10 for steadiness.

Amber Palace Main Lounge sits two decks down, roughly 32 cabins along the ship from you. A deck between you takes most of the noise out of it, and it is a short trip when you want it. We give it 10 out of 10 for quiet, which is about as peaceful as this ship gets. For getting about it is 1 out of 10, so add a few minutes to everywhere you go.

Of the 170 cabin positions on Deck 7, this is the 15th from forward.

The Ocean Suite grade runs 275-287 square feet. The balcony adds another 46-85 on top of that. At suite level you are buying more than square feet. Suites almost always carry priority boarding and priority disembarkation, and the higher grades on most lines add a restaurant, a lounge or a sun deck of their own. Junior and entry level suites often get none of that, so it is worth checking what this particular grade includes rather than assuming the whole list comes with the word.

A word on loyalty, because the grade misleads people here. Carnival Rewards replaced VIFP on 1 September 2026 and it counts what you spend, not the nights you sail or the room you book, so this suite earns at the same rate per dollar as an interior does. What the grade buys you is the room and the service, not faster status. Checked against the line's own published terms on 8 September 2026.

Against the rest of the ship it is as quiet as anything on board, livelier in a swell than most of them and further from the action than most. It suits light sleepers. It is a poor fit for anyone who feels motion badly and anyone who finds long corridors and stairs hard work.
