1st class in the Titanic
Titanic’s first class accommodation was capable of housing up to 735 passengers. The style of our offered ranged from comfortable single-berth cabins to dazzled magnificent multi-room parlour suites.
The first class cabins and suites were located over five decks where the ship’s motion would be least felt. First class accommodation also held 350 cheaper standard cabins with single beds, used for accompanying servants and staff. (Cost: $4,350)
2nd class in the Titanic
Most of the cabins in second class had bunk-beds, unless one booked a single-person cabin, such as that shown here.
There were no private toilets for each individual cabin, although sinks and shaving/make-up mirrors were provided. The staterooms of the second class were very similar to the standard cabins of the first class. Family rooms usually combined single and bunk beds, a small settee would often be supplied, together with a writing desk and wardrobe or dressing table and washing facilities. (Cost: $60)
