Cabins

The ship has 35 window cabins on Deck 1 (Grillparzerdeck), each fitted with a fixed, non-opening window located near the ceiling. All other staterooms on Decks 2 and 3 feature French Balconies. These cabins, located on Schillerdeck (category C - Deck 2) and Goethedeck (category D - Deck 3), offer wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling windows. The vessel has four midship portside Suites. French Balconies are accessed through floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors. The riverboat has no handicap cabins (wheelchair-accessible rooms) for disabled passengers.

Except for the Suites (which have fixed double beds that can’t be converted to twins), all other cabins are equipped with two Murphy beds — wall-mounted beds that fold away during the day and convert into couches (loveseats/small sofas).

Except for the larger Suites (17 m2 / 180 ft2), all cabins are equally sized at 12 m2 / 130 ft2 and offer standard complimentary amenities: coffee/dining table, mirrored vanity table (writing desk with chair), flat TV, phone (for onboard calls only), wardrobe, electronic safe (in the closet), LED ceiling lights, and an en-suite bathroom (WC, glass-enclosed shower, single-sink vanity, hairdryer, bath products, towels). Each cabin is individually air-conditioned and fitted with 220 V power outlets. Complimentary bottled water (two bottles per cabin) is provided daily. Suites are larger, measuring 17 m2 / 180 ft2.
