Spacious Comfort, Thoughtfully Designed
Viking’s staterooms are a true retreat, thoughtfully designed with comfort, elegance, and functionality in mind. Unlike the cramped cabins you might expect on traditional cruises, Viking’s rooms feel more like a boutique hotel.
Every stateroom offers a river-facing view, whether through a French balcony, a full step-out veranda, or floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors. The natural light and passing scenery create a serene atmosphere that changes with every bend in the river.
Enjoy plush bedding, ample storage, and heated bathroom floors (a guest favorite), especially during cooler sailings. Select staterooms feature personal butler service, in-suite minibars restocked daily, and seating areas for sipping wine or enjoying room-service breakfast with a view.
From the quiet elegance of the furnishings to the premium amenities and modern Scandinavian design, every detail is made to feel effortless because luxury should never feel complicated.

Relax, Read, Dine & Unwind
Onboard a Viking ship, every space is designed with intention, inviting you to slow down and savor the journey.
Cozy up with a book in the curated onboard library, filled with destination-themed reads, classics, and travel guides. Whether you’re a history buff or a casual browser, it’s the perfect nook for quiet moments between excursions.
Dining is anything but routine. Savor regional specialties and familiar favorites in the main restaurant, or choose a more casual setting at the Aquavit Terrace, offering alfresco dining with panoramic views. Menus change daily and highlight local ingredients paired with complimentary beer and wine, of course.
On the sun deck, stretch out on a lounge chair, sip your favorite drink, and watch centuries of history drift by. Vikings' open-air spaces never feel crowded, just peaceful, elegant, and designed for real connection to the destination.
Prefer to unwind indoors? Viking’s quiet lounges are perfect for conversation, card games, or simply soaking in the scenery with a warm espresso or afternoon tea in hand.
