Experts at Panache Cruises shared why a lot of thought should go into what suite cruisegoers opt for.
They said: "Holidaymakers should think carefully when booking their stateroom or suite depending on specific needs.
"The location should be an important consideration.
"Those who struggle with walking should think wisely about where they would be best situated, and families should consider what facilities would be most convenient for them to be near."
Rooms on cruise ships vary in size and levels of luxury.
Those spending more time in their room might want better facilities, while those planning to be out and about can opt for a smaller room.
"The suite will be ‘home’ for the duration of the trip," the experts added.
"Cruisers should think about what is important to them.
"For example, those people on longer itineraries or who envisage spending significant time in their cabin should think about upgrading to a larger suite with a dining table, larger balcony and perhaps even their own butler."
