The Sky suites on Mercury are not worth it.  The suite is not much bigger than the CC cabin. The X on the smokestack is above the Air Conditioning system. for the whole ship and the sky suites are under this.  There is constant white noise.


The balconies are huge, near 200 square feet but not private.  The cabin is so small on these Century class ships that the butler has to wiggle his way into the room with a heavily laden food tray. The concierge class special menu is better than the menu for the sky suites.


When room service delivers a concierge class breakfast they set down the tray and leave quickly.


In a butler served sky suite the butler wants to uncover the dishes and unfold the napkins and pour the coffee and juice in butler like flourishes, which is not very cruisey when one of the cabin occupants is still under the covers.


Butler service should be unobtrusive.  The Sky suite cabins on a century class ship are not big enough for butler service, especially in the morning.
