Best and worst cabins on Carnival Conquest

Most cabin advice is somebody's opinion. This is measurement. We read the published deck plans for Carnival Conquest, worked out where each of the 1,491 cabins physically sits, and ranked them.

Carnival Conquest is a Conquest class ship, about 110,480 gross tons, carrying around 2,980 guests at double occupancy, in service since 2002. The cabins we can place on the plans run from deck 1 to deck 11. The deck plan legend colours them as 606 interior, 523 balcony, 310 ocean view, 52 suite.

On this measure the steadiest cabin aboard is 1336 on deck 1 (Ocean view), and the one that should move most is 1122 on deck 11 (Balcony). Every other cabin on Carnival Conquest falls between the two.

How this is worked out, and what it does not cover

A ship pivots about a point amidships and low down. The further a cabin sits from that point, the more it moves in a swell. So the ranking below is distance from amidships, weighted with height above the waterline. It is a position measurement, not a review.

What we are not claiming. We have not mapped the bars, clubs and galleys on this ship, so nothing here is a noise rating. A steady cabin under a nightclub is still a cabin under a nightclub.

The cabins that move most

High up and close to an end. Fine for most people, worth avoiding if you are not.

The largest cabins

By floor area on the plan, against the median cabin on this ship. Suites will dominate, which is the point: this is where the space is.
