Get a balcony room, preferrable in the middle of the ship. The windows or balcony doors will help as they will let you see the horizon. If you generally have motion sickness, be proactive and bring your medications and take them, don't wait until you start to feel sick.

Unless you are in really rough seas, you really don't get a lot of motion on the newer ships. The only other time I felt the sea is when the captain had to hightail it back to port of a passenger having a medical emergency. That was at the end of the cruise, thankfully.
