If you expect the best, upgrade to a suite. Although rarely found on other European river cruise ships, the 4 suites aboard the River Duchess are extremely spacious, at 230 sq ft. All suites are non-smoking, outside with panoramic views, and include:

Hotel-style beds, which can be positioned separately as two twin beds, or together as one large double bed

A separate sitting area, with sofa and two chairs

Three floor-to-ceiling arched windows

Ample closet space

Direct dial telephone and remote-control color TV, with local and satellite channels, onboard programs and videos

Individual air conditioning and heating controls

Extra-spacious private bathroom with bathtub, shower, and hair dryer

An in-cabin safe

A terry cloth robe for each guest, as an extra touch of luxury

A magnetic card which serves as your cabin key, onboard charge card and boarding card

Email messaging, using the internet corner

Uniworld suites sell quickly, so we recommend you book early.
