The author’s cabin F218
All cabins on
All cabins have a TV, a small sofa with a coffee table. There are coffee making facilities, a refrigerator, vanity / writing desk, personal safe, ample wardrobe and drawer space, a hairdryer, bathroom with WC either with a bath or a shower. A curtain separates the bed and the small lounge area, ideal for early risers, who do not wish to disturb others. These cabins are available with a window or an inside cabin, which features a large mirror where the window would be and are bright and cheery being amply lit.
Finally, the ships designers
have learned that a safe on the floor of the wardrobe was stupid. Thankfully it
is now located in a cupboard (topped by
the TV) above the fridge, which is a
sensible place to have it. No more bending down on your knees, which is hard
for older passengers who sail on Oriana.

The sofa is comfortable and a useful addition
to the cabin

Sadly on our voyage we were
advised that one of the satellites was down, which badly effected our in cabin
TV entertainment, which was sadly lacking. Each of the movie channels aimlessly
showed the same movie again and again allocated to that channel. CNN, BBC and
other channels usually received were never seen.
