neutral Dylan Edwards : I agree with 'lounge' but would question 'salon'. The use of the word 'salon' instead of 'saloon' seems to have come in as a sort of marketing-speak because of the more upmarket associations of 'salon'. I think these words should be kept distinct.

Thank you for your comment, Dylan. However, 'saloon' is often translated into Russian as 'салун' which immediately connotates with the Wild West.

Salon

Пример из https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yacht

Depending on size, a cruising yacht is likely to have at least two cabins, a main salon and a forward stateroom. In smaller yachts, the salon is likely to have convertible berths for its crew or passengers. Typically the salon includes a dining area, which may have a folding, built-in table. The salon is typically contiguous to the galley.

saloon / lounge

A large luxury yacht is likely to have both: a main saloon (not salon!) and a lounge (sun lounge, sky lounge etc.).

Sky lounge. The indoor guest area on the bridge deck of a luxury motor yacht. Often less formal than the main saloon, and sometimes ideal for cocktail parties, happy hour or children’s activities, especially if the weather is not perfect.

A large superyacht may have both a saloon and a beauty salon.

I prefer to distinguish 'saloon' and 'salon' - two quite different words!
