A-Rosa Donna cruises on the Danube River and belongs to the same class as the A-Rosa cruise ships Bella, Mia, and Riva. Each of these vessels is powered by two MTU/Maybach marine diesel engines (model "16V 2000 M60") with a combined output of 1600 kW / 2170 HP. The ship's electrical system includes three MAN diesel generators (model D2842, each generating 380 kW) and one Deutz emergency diesel generator (37 kW). Propulsion is provided by two Schottel STP 550 twin propellers and a Schottel Pump Jet (azimuth bow thruster, model "SPJ 57"). The ship's wheelhouse and awnings are designed to be lowered for safe passage under low bridges. Complimentary bicycles are available for use during land tours and excursions in each port of call.

A-Rosa Donna was launched on May 10, 2002. Due to her width of 14.4 meters, she could not be delivered via the standard route (North Sea–Baltic Canal–Wadden Sea–Rhine River). Because the Main-Danube Canal has a width restriction of 11.4 meters, the ship was transported on pontoons towed through the Black Sea to the Danube Delta (Constanta, Romania). From there, the vessel was unloaded and sailed under her own power to Oltenita, Romania. The entire transfer took 22 days.
