S.S. Beatrice
Danube & Rhine

Elegant, contemporary and wonderfully understated, S.S. Beatrice brings a refined, yacht-inspired aesthetic to the rivers of Central Europe. Sailing through some of the continent's most celebrated landscapes, from Vienna and Bratislava to Budapest and beyond, the ship combines classic European sophistication with the personalised service for which Uniworld is renowned.

Inspired by the colours of the Danube itself, interiors are characterised by light wood finishes, crisp blues and whites, beautifully balanced with marble accents, mirrored details and a striking Murano glass chandelier. The result is a ship that feels both luxurious and effortlessly welcoming.

The recently redesigned lounge sits at the heart of life on board, where handcrafted furnishings, panoramic windows and relaxed elegance create the perfect setting for morning coffee, afternoon conversations and evening cocktails while the scenery drifts by.
