Avalon Waterways’ Award-Winning Panorama Suites
Avalon Waterways has revolutionized river cruising comfort with its Panorama Suites aboard the Suite Ships®. These suites are not just accommodations, but luxurious retreats designed to immerse guests in the beauty of the European rivers.
Distinct from traditional cruise ship cabins, Avalon’s Panorama Suites feature floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall windows, turning the entire room into a panoramic viewing deck. Beds are angled to face these expansive windows, ensuring guests wake up to stunning views of the river and its surroundings. With 200 square feet of space, the suites provide ample room to relax, including a comfortable sitting area, large bathrooms with full shower amenities, and plush bedding.
The standout feature of these suites is the Open-Air BalconySM concept. Instead of a traditional step-out balcony, the panoramic windows slide open to transform the entire living space into a balcony, creating a seamless connection with the outdoors. Whether cruising along the Rhine, the Seine, or the Danube, the Panorama Suites offer the perfect vantage point to enjoy Europe’s breathtaking vistas.
These suites have earned Avalon Waterways numerous awards, including accolades for having some of the best cabins in river cruising. Guests frequently praise the spacious, modern design and the enhanced cruising experience.
