A journey along Southeast Asia’s Mekong River brings with it a new revelation each day. Where ancient traditions are still prevalent in daily life and brilliantly preserved monuments stand strong in remembrance of an influential past.
Intriguing cultures and customs exist within the bustling communities that call the riverbanks home, many of which you’ll have the opportunity to observe with Scenic during unique onshore experiences. Then, after an exciting day of exploration, you’ll return to the stunning surrounds of your 5-star Scenic ship, Scenic Spirit, where unrivalled luxury awaits.
You’ll be welcomed on arrival by our expertly trained staff, before settling into your new home-away-from-home, where natural light pours into the indulgent and spacious public areas, adorned with contemporary Asian-inspired art – the work of established Vietnamese and Burmese artists.
Both of our small boutique vessels are the only all-balcony suite ships in Southeast Asia, with each one meticulously designed to offer the standard of luxury you would expect from a world-class hotel. Thinking about treating yourself to an upgrade but not sure which suite is the right one for you? Let us help
We have space in abundance
Our Deluxe Suites are the largest standard suite size on the Mekong River, at a generous 32m². Upgrade to our Grand Deluxe Suites and you’ll be entitled to an impressive 40m² of indulgence, complete with oversized bathrooms and a queen-size Scenic Slumber Bed.
Perhaps you’d like even more room? Our Grand Panorama Suites range from a spectacular 70-80m² and offer a truly spectacular place to unwind after an exciting day of activities. Choose the Royal Panorama Suite and you’ll be treated to an outdoor Jacuzzi on your private terrace, promising 180° views from the bow of the ship.
Make yourself at home
Every suite on board our 5-star ships features our signature Scenic Sun Lounge, an innovative all-weather conservatory-style space activated at the touch of a button, so you can enjoy the outdoor experience, whatever the weather. Our renowned Scenic Slumber beds encourage a restful night’s sleep - dressed in Egyptian cotton sheets - and you can select the perfect pillow for your comfort, from our extensive pillow menu.
You only need to unpack once and, with every suite offering a walk-in wardrobe, you don’t have to worry about overpacking – you’ll have plenty of space to safely hang your favourite clothes. Enjoy recharging in your separate living area and relax in your large bathroom, complete with eco-friendly toiletries, stand-in shower and plush bathrobes. Not forgetting, your complimentary mini-bar will be restocked daily with a selection of beverages to enjoy whenever the mood strikes.
Your attentive butler has been trained to meet Scenic’s high standards and will always be on-hand to ensure you have everything you need. From a nightly turndown service, to your favourite whiskey brought to your door, nothing is too much. We go above-and-beyond, it makes us stand out from the crowd.
If you enjoy the finer things…
We want you to have a once-in-a-lifetime experience, so there is a selection of special additions available to you, depending on your suite category. Guests booking into our Deluxe or Balcony Suites on the Jewel Deck, or a Deluxe Suite on the Sapphire Deck will be entitled to a valet, shoeshine and drinks service.
Should you choose to stay in our Grand Deluxe Suite on the Diamond Deck, we’ll deliver fresh fruit canapés and petit fours to your door, all complimentary of course, as well as in-suite breakfast and a complimentary laundry service. On selected nights, you’ll even receive an invitation to a ten-course degustation menu at the Chef’s Table.
Book into our Royal Panorama Suites and you’ll be welcomed by a bottle of fine champagne and entitled to an unlimited laundry service. You’ll also receive US$100 per couple to spend in our on board Wellness Centre.
Exclusive access onshore
And, if that wasn’t enough, Grand Deluxe Suite guests will enjoy exclusive privileges at Ho Chi Minh City’s 5-star Caravelle Saigon Hotel and Siem Reap’s Raffles Grand Hotel d'Angkor. Stay in the luxurious Caravelle Signature Rooms (34m² in size) and enjoy access to the Signature Lounge. Delight in a buffet breakfast, all-inclusive drinks throughout the day and evening canapés served with Happy Hour cocktails, amongst a range of exclusive Club Member privileges.

The Angkorian ambience, with high ceilings, wooden floors, handcrafted four-poster beds and historic marble bathrooms, is sure to transport you back to the Golden Age of Travel.
Get to know Scenic Spirit
How you choose to spend your days is totally up to you, but it might be worth considering where your suite is situated on the ship to suit your preferences. Suites on the Jewel Deck are in close proximity to our spacious open-plan Crystal Dining restaurant, as well as the library and gift shop. On the Sapphire Deck, you’ll have easy access to the Spirit Lounge, where you can enjoy a drink or an al fresco meal at the River Café. Diamond Deck suites are perfectly positioned for some of the best views from the ship. Sharing the floor with the pool and bar, they are close to the Sun Deck and open-air cinema*
