Royal Crown

Royal Crown

With the nostalgic charm of a glamorous 1930s yacht and the comfort and service of a four-star vessel, the elegant 45-stateroom Royal Crown is perfect for cruising European waterways. Spacious teak decks blend with elegant public rooms and staterooms appointed with mahogany, rosewood, and marble, rich fabrics, and specially designed furniture. All passenger cabins have a view with picture windows (Panorama Deck) or two large portholes (Select Deck) for expansive views. The cabins are fully air-conditioned and heated with individual climate control and have a flat-screen television, ample wardrobe space and bedside drawers for storage, and a small combination safe. En suite bathrooms are equipped with a shower and hair dryer. Public amenities include a library, boutique, elegant Art Deco-inspired lounge with panoramic views, and a dining room with open seating. The Lido Deck features a large sun deck running almost the entire length of the vessel, the Lido bar, a putting green, and a large-scale chessboard.
