Cabin Specifications
Built in 2009 and refurbished in 2019 alongside her sister ship, Scenic Pearl, the Scenic Ruby offers an elegant blend of modern luxury and timeless design. Each suite and cabin has been thoughtfully renovated to match the refined ambiance of a boutique hotel, featuring contemporary décor, premium materials, and meticulous attention to detail. The accommodations are among the most spacious on Europe’s rivers and include Balcony Suites, Junior Suites, and Royal Suites—each outfitted with a Queen-sized Scenic Slumber Bed, elegant furnishings, and a well-appointed bathroom. Select suites feature the signature Scenic Sun Lounge, an innovative, all-weather balcony that seamlessly transforms into an enclosed lounge area, allowing guests to enjoy uninterrupted views of Europe’s scenic waterways in complete comfort.

Features Onboard
The Scenic Ruby spans four decks—Sun, Diamond, Sapphire, and Jewel—each designed to balance relaxation, indulgence, and exploration. The ship offers a range of luxurious public spaces and dining venues, including Crystal Dining, Riverview Terrace, Portobellos, and the elegant Panorama Lounge Bar. Guests can unwind while watching the world drift by from the terrace, savor a multi-course dining experience at Table La Rive, or simply relax in the comfort of their suite after a day of discovery.
Service aboard the Scenic Ruby is exceptional, with a dedicated team including the Captain, Cruise Director, butlers, and world-class chefs ensuring that every guest experience is personalized and memorable. The ship also features up to five distinct dining venues, offering a diverse array of gourmet dishes inspired by regional cuisines. Whether enjoying fine dining, casual fare, or private in-suite meals, guests can expect an experience that reflects Scenic’s commitment to all-inclusive luxury, sophistication, and comfort throughout their river journey.
