Description
The MS Sapphire offers a combination of luxury and comfort along the magnificent Seine, revealing the grandeur of Paris and the historical riches of Normandy. At 110 meters long, this river ship has 70% of its cabins measuring 41 square meters or more, and accommodates no more than 98 guests, ensuring ample space for passengers and a very exclusive service from the crew, attentive to the smallest details. All cabins have exterior views (most have French balconies). Amenities include flat-screen TVs with on-demand programming, Molton Brown toiletries, and comfortable bathrobes.
Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the ship. An alternative dining option, called Arthur's, is available from early afternoon until late at night and features a 180-degree retractable glass wall for an additional atmosphere. Passengers can also borrow bicycles to ride along some river routes, meeting the ship at the next port of call.
