The Ship
The Amadeus Classic is one of the more comfortable cruisers on the waterways of Europe. The multi-national crew is dedicated to the highest standards of service.

With a minimum floor area of 15 square metres the cabins are reasonably spacious by the standards of river cruisers. All have windows to the outside and are equipped with the facilities one would expect of a first-class hotel including shower, w.c., individually adjustable airconditioning, telephone, TV and safe. Special attention has been paid to noise insulation to ensure quiet, even when under way.

There are four suites with approximately 22 square metres of floor which have a sofa, table and armchair, a bath, minibar and safe.

In layout and furnishings the other cabins on all three decks are identical, the differences being the size of windows and height above water level (higher cabins enjoy marginally better views and fewer stairs). Cabins on the upper (‘Mozart’) and middle (‘Strauss’) decks have large windows (149 x 95 cm) except cabins 203, 204 and 206 which have round windows (diameter: 93 cm). Cabins on the lowest (‘Haydn’) deck have smaller windows (150 x 50 cm). There are no single cabins but we are allocating some two-bed cabins for single occupancy.

The public areas on the upper deck include the lounge and bar, a library area and a restaurant which can seat everyone at a single sitting. The sun deck has a small heated pool and a tented area for shade.
