Rory Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 Are the ceilings in the bathrooms metal to use magnetic hooks? I have always used them in the room but never in the bathroom. Considering taking a half shower curtain with magnetic hooks for the shower/tub in a Jr Suite on Symphony. It has a partial glass door but last cruise I had water on the floor numerous times.

loki007 Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 The walls are so i assume the ceiling is as well. We always take magnetic hooks with us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbrinkm Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 Yes (at least confirmed on Allure) - we used our magnetic hooks to hang some of our formal wear from the ceiling during showers to steam some of the wrinkles.

WAAAYTOOO Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 Let me add this: The reason I said hooks is b/c I have 2 smaller hooks that I squeeze together rather than using 1 big hook. I find the big magnetic hooks to be very difficult to maneuver. I have found (after lots of experimentation) that I am better off with 2 smaller hooks than with 1 big hook. This is for the CEILING. If I have something even remotely heavy that I must hang on a wall, I am forced to use the bigger hooks or the heavy hanging item will slide down the face of the wall. I avoid hanging anything of any real weight on the wall for this reason. I have found that I am far better off hanging something from the ceiling than on the wall.

Rory Posted February 1 Author Report Share Posted February 1 I have 4/ 130 lb. hooks. Those should hold a shower curtain no problem. Thanks for the insight! CrimsonCruiser, RestingBird, Maggie M and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has a partial glass door but last cruise I had water on the floor numerous times. I literally have hooks in my amazon cart specifically for this exact same reason. Hooks and a dollar tree shower curtain that we can trash at the end. We didn't get water on the floor too much but it did happen often enough to be annoying. A pile of 4 towels on the floor because it just kept being wet felt SO wasteful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RestingBird Posted March 12 Report Share Posted March 12 Just the info I was looking for! I'm hoping to hang a curtain from the ceiling to divide our room for the kids at night. ScottD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It works great if a kid needs a nap or darkness so the parents can still relax without walking around in the dark. RestingBird 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmattinson Posted March 12 Report Share Posted March 12 I have sailed on Harmony, Oasis, Independence, Odyssey, and Serenade in the last few years - all of them have had metal ceilings in the bathrooms. We hang our bathing suits in there across a few hooks to spread them out around the ceiling vent to promote airflow to dry them out - they fare better there than over the string clothesline DoomSlayer and WAAAYTOOO 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rory Posted March 14 Author Report Share Posted March 14 The shower curtain hung perfectly! I had a full size curtain folded in half, 3 magnets through the hoops on top and screwed off the hooks on 2 more to secure the bottom. Never had any water on the bathroom floor! I will do this every time I have a Jr Suite from now on! CrimsonCruiser and jbrinkm 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
