Balcony cabins measure 178 square feet including the balcony. Suites with large private verandahs are 374 to 754 square feet and boast a sitting room with separate bedroom, a large marble bathroom with separate shower and tub with whirlpool, two televisions and a walk-in closet. There are also 372 inside cabins ranging from 135 to 148 square feet. Adorned with traditional mahogany wood trim, tasteful decor, paintings and mirrors, they are comfortable though small when compared to other newer cruise ships. Staterooms below the mini-suite category have a small bathroom with shower and open shelves for toiletries, but no cabinet space.
Closet space is just adequate for two people on a one-week cruise in a standard cabin.
Plus daily movies are shown in the Princess Theater. Each cabin deck has a free Laundromat with washer and dryer. They're most crowded on the last day of the cruise, but beware, these machines are tough commercial units and should be used with care on delicate garments. Dawn Princess features two fine show venues. The theater is also used for enrichment lectures and movies.
