Review of MS Hemingway
The 148-passenger river cruise ship Hemingway operates classical Rhine itineraries between Amsterdam and Basel.
MS Hemingway represents a 3-star + product with 9-10 m2 (97-107 ft2) double and twin outside staterooms equipped with private facilities including panoramic windows on all ship's decks, individual air-conditioning, bathroom with shower/WC, internal phone, satellite TV, and cabin safe. There are staterooms with two separate beds and ones with a French bed.
But what differs the vessel from all other 3-star + cruise ships on Rhine is an exceptional high quality 4-star + service onboard. Passengers are often surprised with the tasty gourmet meals, experienced staff and relaxing atmosphere. Hemingway is fully air-conditioned riverboat. Onboard facilities include a reception area, postcard collection point, souvenir shop, wake-up service, laundry service, and partially covered sun deck with comfortable loungers.
