Amadeus Waterways is proud to announce two brand new luxury ships scheduled to debut 2009, the MS Amalyra in March and MS Amadolce in May. Both vessels will feature the same state-of-the-art amenities as their sister-ships, MS Amadante (2008), MS Amacello (2008), MS Amalegro (2007) and MS Amadagio (2006). Guests will enjoy the luxurious comfort of exquisitely decorated staterooms, equipped with a flat-screen TV, internet access, and will feature French balconies on the upper two decks. The ships also have an elevator, a sun deck with walking track, a whirlpool, and bicycles so you can explore the sights on your own. The newer ships will now have single and triple cabins. Call 800-640 4899 for details.
BICYCLES: Each ship has 25 bicycles on board which can be used by passengers free of charge to visit the small towns. Today, most regions offer well-maintained bicycle paths along the river.
INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM: Every stateroom is equipped with monitor and keyboard with Internet access, English speaking TV stations, a large movie selection and numerous music programs. Our satellite telephone system allows you to call home for only 1 Euro per minute.
THE GENEROUS WELLNESS AREA located in the Aft area of the Violin Deck includes a glassed-in fitness room, massage, beauty salon and the Adagio Lounge with bar, modern wicker furniture and French doors to enjoy the fresh river air.
ELEVATOR: Both ships have an elevator, which only very few river cruise ships are featuring. The elevator reaches 4 different levels: The Restaurant level (1), the Staterooms on the Cello Deck (2), the Lobby and Panorama Lounge (3) and the Staterooms on the Violin Deck (4).
STATEROOMS: Inside your exquisitely decorated stateroom you'll find all the amenities of a fine hotel, with white-on-white plush bedding, a cozy sitting area, Infotainment System, hair dryer, safe, fluffy bathrobes, individually controlled air-conditioning and ample closet space. All 71 staterooms and the 4 Jr. Suites are outside; over 82% feature large French balconies, which are a true delight when relaxing in your stateroom.
JUNIOR SUITES: Although rarely found on European river cruise ships, Junior Suites aboard the MS AMALEGRO and MS AMADAGIO are extra spacious - 255 square feet. They feature a comfortable sitting area with a sofa and two chairs, floor-to-ceiling windows with French balcony and a luxurious, extra spacious bathroom with bathtub and shower. The suites sell quickly, so early reservations are recommended.
