The Italian painter Sandro Botticelli, one of the greatest masters of the Renaissance, gave his name to this elegant four-deck vessel sailing along the Seine, a historic and authentic river with endlessly rich landscapes.
Fully refurbished in 2016, MS Botticelli is a human-sized ship with four decks, measuring 110 meters in length and 11.40 meters in width. It can accommodate 147 passengers in 74 cabins spread across two decks. Each cabin, ranging from 10 to 12.5 square meters, is equipped with all modern amenities and offers maximum comfort. Beige and taupe tones, enhanced with emerald green accents and touches of gold in the cabins, along with luxurious Venetian fabrics, create an elegant and cozy atmosphere.
Located on the upper deck, the restaurant—where all meals are served during the cruise - offers refined cuisine in an elegant setting, with large windows allowing passengers to fully enjoy panoramic views. On the same deck, there is a lounge bar with a dance floor, while the sun deck, an ideal place to relax and admire the scenery, features comfortable loungers as well as a large shaded area.
