If you go to this website you can click on photos people have shared throughout the ship. While there isn't a photo of your exact stateroom, it appears that the bed is actually closest to the balcony when looking at your category.

Thank you for this!!!  It does look to show bed next to the balcony, unfortunately.  This just makes no sense because when the trundle bed is pulled out for the second kid, we will have to crawl over the bed/child to go to the bathroom.

Balcony rooms for 4 people have the beds closer to the door on Oasis and I believe the same is true for Symphony of the Seas.  Balcony rooms for 2 people are typically in between the rooms for 4 and the rooms for 2 have the bed near the balcony.

That is what I am hoping for and makes sense!!

Without going to the deck plans to be sure, I believe that all balcony cabin categories that accommodate more than 2 people all have the bed by the bathroom.  So if you have a room for 4 people, I don’t think you can get a room with the bed by the slider….I think !

That's what I am hoping for!!  It's interesting....when I go to icruise and click on the room from the deck layout, they have a popup with the "room details" and a picture that shows the room as you described. Then I click the tab that says "Room Layout" and it shows the layout completely opposite with the bed next to the balcony.  I just can't seem to find anything to verify how this is laid out.  My travel agent called Royal Caribbean to verify the layout and she said they told her look on YouTube.  

My apologies!!  I transposed the number when I posted!!  room 9678

Where can I go to see the true layout of room 9678 on Symphony of the Sea sailing 2/24/24?  I would like to know if the bed is near the balcony or if the sofa is next to the balcony.  We are going to be sleeping two adults and two kids and I don't want to be have to walk over the pull out bed to get to the bathroom at night.

I would love to know if anyone has used Onpoint Vertual services as well!  I seems like they will give you the documented results using any government approved home test.
