SUITE DREAMS. SWEETER MORNINGS.
Linger a little longer by starting the day with complimentary Continental breakfast room service. With the world at your feet from your window-facing Comfort CollectionSM bed, savour the best view to sweeten your morning coffee with the widest view in river cruising.
AWAKEN TO A NEW WORLD
It's hard to tell where the luxury of your Panorama Suite ends and the world outside begins. Rise each day to your wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling Panorama Window creating the industry's only Open–Air Balcony®—with nothing between you and the view.
CONSIDER YOURSELF AT HOME
Your choice of Comfort Collection℠ mattresses and pillows. Egyptian cotton sheets and European-style duvets. Premium L’Occitane® bath products. Plush bath towels, robes, and slippers. Marble-top bathrooms with roomy glass-enclosed showers. Fully stocked mini bar. State-of-the-art flatscreen TVs with a bounty of entertainment options, and complimentary Starlink Wi-Fi. These thoughtful amenities, inviting design touches, and generous living space make Avalon an award-winning envy of other river cruise companies. So, consider yourself at home—but with a better view!
YOUR ROOM IS READY
Most small-ship designers miss the boat when it comes to cabins. They think you’ll be happy with a space that amounts to a forgotten spare room. At Avalon, we have a bigger idea. In addition to our award-winning Deluxe Staterooms, 100% of our European fleet of Suite Ships® include our 200-square-foot Panorama SuitesSM or the 300-square-foot Royal Suite - both featuring the widest views in river cruising. Avalon has knocked the notion of a bed facing the wall on its ear - with our sumptuous Comfort Collection Beds℠ that look to the view, instead of another piece of furniture.

Deluxe Stateroom
Your favorite chair. Your go-to snack. Your signature sip. You can’t help but feel at home aboard an Avalon Suite Ship. Avalon cruisers know that feeling aboard our intimate Suite Ships—not as another face in the crowd or a number on a guest list. When you cruise with Avalon, there are certain words you’ll never hear on board. “Take a number” is simply not in our vocabulary. That’s because our staff—from captain to crew to housekeeping to chefs—know the meaning of ‘You First’ when it comes to worldclass service. With a 3:1 guest-to-crew ratio, you’ll enjoy personalized VIP treatment delivered with a relaxed luxury that’s never stuffy—just home, sweet home.
CONSIDER YOURSELF AT HOME
Like magic, Avalon makes wide open spaces feel comfy and cozy with the perfect spots to stretch out and enjoy the view, engaging conversation, or the peace and quiet you crave. From the Club Lounge to the Observation Lounge to the Panorama Lounge, you’re sure to find the perfect place to take it all in.
