whenismynextcruise Posted March 24, 2020 Report Share Posted March 24, 2020 I am wondering what people can say about matresses on RCL ships. Specifically Anthem. I have sailed on her before and have found the matresses to be like sleeping on a hard bench. In a word they suck. I realize this is a personal opinion of mine. What can people tell me about the upper classes? Does anyone have direct mattress to matrees compare information? I have zero interest in schlepping some funky mattress pad with me. I have stayed in balcony cabins and mini-suites (which claim to have luxury pillow top matresses and they dont. Its the same matress) Is there a softer sleep out there in the Star Class? I am not really looking for "how you do it" answers here. I have read most of them (towels, egg crate things, etc) on the boards here. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you the regular mattresses in all the other cabins stink. whenismynextcruise and Ogilthorpe 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAAAYTOOO Posted March 24, 2020 Report Share Posted March 24, 2020 Star Class definitely have awesome mattresses but I have had some pretty bad mattresses even in Owners Suites. You really never know what you’re getting except with SC. Ogilthorpe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melmar02 Posted March 24, 2020 Report Share Posted March 24, 2020 Grand 2 BR on Liberty last Sept. was a thin, firm mattress. Grand 2 BR on Enchantment 2 months ago was an amazing cloud on which I could rest my head every night.

Sounds like it is a crap shoot on the matresses otherwise though which is what I thought WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to be hopeful here. I am certainly willing to pay for a better cabin with a better matress at this point! I will look at the Enchantment sailings to see what she is offering, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is an old small ship.. Do you like small ships? If not don't pick that ship Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you definetley should Not pick Enchantment lol. Go with an Oasis Class or Quantum class ship and try to get Star Class. I really think that's the only way to get a good mattress..

loki007 Posted March 27, 2020 Report Share Posted March 27, 2020 i had new mattresses on my last OASIS cruise but agree with WAAAYTOOO that its a crap shoot. Good thing is I am usually so tired its not a problem WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
