Frederic Chopin
Newly built in 2002 and refurbished in 2005, the MV Frederic Chopin is deluxe, carrying 79 passengers in 41 cabins. She is distinguished by staterooms on her upper-deck that have full-length French doors that open into your cabin (cabins on the lower deck have large windows). Original works of art can be found throughout. All double cabins are identical in size (there are three singles and two lower deck junior suites) and are beautifully appointed with built-in closets, desk, shower and toilet, television, telephone and four-channel radio. A hairdryer and terry robes are available upon request. Bedding is a European-style duvet with feather pillows and eiderdowns (synthetic materials available upon request). Smoking is not allowed in the cabin or in the corridors.
The vessel features six meals daily (breakfast, morning bouillon, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner and midnight snack). All meals are single seating in a non-smoking dining room with five-course evening meals (up to nine courses on selected nights). Additionally, there is a bar, Panorama Restaurant, and lounge as well as an infirmary with a qualified doctor on board. The Sun Deck has plenty of deck chairs and blankets, if needed. Captain's Welcome and Captain's Farewell Receptions are provided as well as nightly entertainment and dancing. There is one crew member for every 2.5 passengers providing the best crew-to-passenger ratio of any river vessel. This allows for a high level of service as well as sumptuous food, served course by course for the evening meal. English language announcements, menus and daily programs are provided.
