Scenic’s Suite Range on the Space-Ships
| Suite type | What Scenic says |
|---|---|
| Standard Suite | Scenic’s entry suites, with the same inclusions and butler service |
| Balcony Suite | Scenic Sun Lounge; located on the Sapphire and Diamond Decks |
| Junior Suite | Diamond Deck benefits, including personalized butler service and complimentary daily canapés, plus extra space |
| Royal Panorama Suite | Diamond Deck; separate lounge area, oversized bathroom and an outdoor Jacuzzi |
| Royal Suite | The largest suites on the Space-Ships, on the Diamond Deck, with Sun Lounge, separate lounge and oversized bathroom |
Every suite has nightly turndown, a complimentary mini bar and queen-size Scenic Slumber Beds, according to Scenic.
How the Sun Lounge Works
Instead of a fixed balcony outside the room, the Sun Lounge brings the balcony indoors. At the touch of a button, the glass opens to the river; closed, it is part of your room. On a chilly April morning in the Wachau or a December Christmas-market sailing, that matters — you still get the view without sitting outside in a coat.
If you want a balcony you can use in every season, the Scenic river cruise balcony suite is one of the most practical designs on the rivers.
Diamond Deck and Butler Service
All Scenic suites come with butler service, but the Diamond Deck adds more: Scenic says its Junior Suites there include personalized butler service and complimentary daily canapés. Our sister site Luxurious River Cruises explains what Scenic’s butlers do day to day.
On the Mekong, Scenic Spirit (up to 68 guests) has its own suite range, starting with Deluxe Suites that have a separate bedroom and lounge and a Sun Lounge; Grand Deluxe Suites add a walk-in wardrobe.
Choosing Between Scenic Suites
| If you want… | Look at |
|---|---|
| Scenic’s inclusions at the lowest entry point | Standard Suite |
| A balcony you can use in any weather | Balcony Suite with Sun Lounge |
| Diamond Deck perks and personalized butler service | Junior Suite |
| The most space, a separate lounge and an outdoor Jacuzzi | Royal Panorama Suite or Royal Suite |
Whichever you choose, the fare includes the same drinks, excursions and gratuities.
