Life on board
Deluxe Cabin:
The 12 Deluxe Cabins are designed to help you unwind and disconnect. With carpeted floors and wood-beamed ceilings, each cabin offers a refined ambiance that sets the tone for a captivating journey. For added comfort, every cabin includes a private ensuite bathroom. As night falls, experience the “Great Transformation,” where the cabin seamlessly converts into a cozy bedroom. The sofa transforms into a double bed, and the footstools turn into coffee tables and stools. The room, measuring 7 m² (75 sq ft), offers a truly enchanting experience.
Suites:
Choose from one of 18 Suites, each offering an exquisitely designed bedroom that also offers the option for a twin room layout, furnished with a sofa, table, two armchairs and a private ensuite bathroom. Measuring 11 m² (118 sq ft), these Suites boast vibrant hues of orange, terracotta, and purple, creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Brass accents, reflective smoked mirrors, glossy lacquered "burnt sienna" ceilings, and sumptuous carpets and curtains, along with lighting fixtures by renowned 20th-century designers, infuse the space with timeless elegance and charm.
Dining:
Experience a journey through Italian culinary artistry on board, from a delightful breakfast to an elegant dinner. Begin your day in the Dining Car, surrounded by chic geometric designs, sage-coloured walls, and warm sconces that create an inviting ambiance. Relish tables dressed in white linen, adorned with vintage silverware, Italian ceramics, and the finest regional olive oils. The curated onboard menu showcases seasonal, locally sourced dishes, reflecting the flavours of Italy’s diverse regions. Enjoy an array of international breakfast treats, including Sicilian brioche, artisanal jams, and aromatic Italian coffee, or opt for breakfast served privately in your cabin upon request.
