Description

The MS Artania is an elegant ocean liner in the Phoenix Reisen fleet, designed to offer a refined, cosmopolitan and comfortable cruise experience. Originally built as Royal Princess for the British market and christened by Lady Diana, the ship has been sailing with Phoenix Reisen since 2011. Measuring 231 metres in length, with 44,500 GT and a capacity of approximately 1,200 passengers, the MS Artania combines generous dimensions with a pleasantly intimate atmosphere. One of its distinctive features is that all cabins are outside cabins, many of them equipped with a private balcony, offering guests a constant sense of space and beautiful views of the sea. The interiors of the MS Artania are elegant and welcoming, with numerous lounges and bars spread across the passenger decks, a spacious two-level atrium, a library, an Internet area, card and board game tables, a theatre and cinema, a boutique and a beauty salon. For relaxation and well-being, guests can enjoy a modern SPA area, massages, a fitness centre and saunas. The spacious outdoor decks offer several sunbathing areas, two pool areas, a panoramic promenade and the distinctive aft terrace with the famous Phoenix Bar.
