Difference Between Club Balcony Suite & Balcony Stateroom – Norwegian Cruise Line
Norwegian Cruise Line has recategorized their “Mini-Suite” category to a new category called “Club Suite Balcony“. This change in cabin category also brings along a couple more perks than the previous mini-suite category.
Club Balcony Suite - Norwegian Cruise Line Stateroom
If you book a Club Suite Balcony your booking will now come with the following perks:
Ability to pre-book onboard entertainment & dining beginning 125 days prior to sailing (for reference, Haven Bookings get 130 days and normal bookings get 120 days)
Delivery of a food and beverage amenity twice per sailing
One laundry bag or pressing service per sailing
One bottle of sparkling wine

Club Balcony Suite - Norwegian Cruise Line Floor Plan
One of the biggest differences between the balcony and the club balcony suite, in regards to the room, is the size of the bathroom. The club balcony suite has two sinks and a larger shower, as seen in the photo below.
These spacious rooms are available to book on a wide variety of itineraries such as Alaska, Bermuda, & Europe.
Club Balcony staterooms are broken into different categorization levels, we have them listed below for the Norwegian Bliss specifically, and may vary slightly between ships.
