| Norwegian Bliss - Cabin #11238 (Mini-suite) |
Home Suite Home on Norwegian Bliss
Our embarkation was expedited because we had a general session scheduled for 1 PM in the Bliss Theater. Even though the cabins were still being readied, we were able to drop off our hand luggage in our mini-suite. After a quick picture, we headed off to get some lunch before our meeting.
There is plenty of storage in the closets, in the counter cabinets, and even in drawers of the sofa bed. In fact, we didn't even use all of the available space for storage. This balcony cabin is slightly larger than the standard verandah cabin. Over the years, we've found that it's best to upgrade our balcony to a higher cabin category to get the additional space, especially when we traveled with our son.
Little Things That Make a Difference
The first thing that got our attention was the double sink with two storage drawers in addition to the shelf which could be used for toothbrush and additional toiletries. Build-in cup holders with 4 cups are out of the way, leaving full utilization of shelf space.
There is a built-in soap dispenser by the sink as well as body wash and shampoo dispensers in the shower.
Speaking of the shower, we simply loved the shower head, and wanted to take it home with us. You could adjust the rain shower head and additional shower faucets such that you had up to six shower jets directing a stream to whatever part of your body was ailing you. There was plenty of room in the bathroom and shower such that two people could easily be getting ready at the same time if you so desired. That is very unusual for a cruise ship bathroom. The bathrooms vary based on cabin category; one of our agent friends had a tub/shower combination for example.
Keep Your Devices Charged
There are two electric outlets on the counter which are situated such that they can both be used together. Some ships, while they have multiple plugs, may not have enough room so that they can be used at the same time. In addition, the light by the night stands, includes a reading light, overhead light, and USB port so that you can charge your phone or other device while you are in bed. All the lights are controlled by a switch which is activated by inserting your room key. When you remove the key, all power is turned off.
Tip: If you don't want to use your room key, you can use a hotel or similar key that has a magnetic strip.
There's a safe inside the closet to keep your valuables secure. The hairdryer is underneath the counter, powered by it's own power source, keeping the other outlets free for your use.
The LCD TV is your access to ship's information, including your onboard expense account and ship's dining and entertainment. You can even make reservations from your room via your remote.
The balcony had two chairs and a table so that you could relax with a cup of coffee, which you could make yourself or order room service. The cabin was very comfortable and well designed. Norwegian Bliss has taken advantage of years of feedback from their passengers - Well done !!
