Cabin 8418 · Carnival Encounter

Cabin 8418 is an Interior (category 4B1) on Carnival Encounter, 149 to 185 square feet.

Cabin 8418 is an Interior on Deck 8 of Carnival Encounter, and it sits midship. You are near the middle of the hull, where the ship does the least moving. In rough water that matters more than most people expect. We score it 9 out of 10 for steadiness, which puts it among the calmest rooms on the ship.

The lift bank sits on the deck below, roughly 1 cabin 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. We give it 10 out of 10 for quiet, which is about as peaceful as this ship gets. For getting about, 5 out of 10.

Of the 135 cabin positions on Deck 8, this is the 68th from forward. You are about as central as the corridor gets, so it is a similar walk whichever way you turn out of your door.

The Interior grade runs 149-185 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, as steady in a swell as any cabin on the ship and better placed for getting around than 85 per cent of them. It suits light sleepers and travellers prone to seasickness.
