Cabin 8303 · Carnival Jubilee

Cabin 8303 sits on Deck 8 of Carnival Jubilee, and it sits forward of midship. You are far enough from the middle to notice a swell, but nowhere near the worst of it. We score it 7 out of 10 for steadiness.

You are practically next door to a stairwell, 1 cabin along. Nothing on board is a shorter walk. The price is footsteps past your door and the lift chiming at odd hours. Quiet comes out at 8 out of 10, roughly par for this ship. For getting about, 7 out of 10.

Of the 56 cabin positions on Deck 8, this is the 55th from forward. That puts you right at the aft end of the run, where the corridor stops and the footfall dies away. You share Deck 8 with Havana, Dreams Studio, Bonsai Teppanyaki and Grand Central. There are 98 cabins along this deck, so the corridor is short and rarely busy.

Against the rest of the ship it is better placed for getting around than 91 per cent of them. It suits light sleepers.

Scored by Cruise Ship Wiki using model v1.8, from the position of this cabin relative to every public space on the ship. Each part is out of 10.
