Belgium

Antwerp

Explore Antwerp, Belgium's second city. Known for its diamond cutting industry, fashion and the many great artists that lived in its vicinity, Antwerp is a city focused on art and culture.

Gent (Ghent)

Netherlands

Rotterdam

Rotterdam is a city that's a long way removed from most people's stereotypical notion of the Netherlands. There are few, if any, canals to be found here nor are there any quaint windmills. There is, however, a thriving modern city which is one of the busiest ports in the entire world.

Netherlands

Amsterdam

Amsterdam combines the unrivaled beauty of the 17th-century Golden Age city center with plenty of museums and art of the highest order, not to mention a remarkably laid-back atmosphere. It all comes together to make this one of the world's most appealing and offbeat metropolises in the world. Built on a latticework of concentric canals like an aquatic rainbow, Amsterdam is known as the City of Canals—but it's no Venice, content to live on moonlight serenades and former glory. Quite the contrary: on nearly every street here you'll find old and new side by side—quiet corners where time seems to be holding its breath next to streets like neon-lit Kalverstraat, and Red Light ladies strutting by the city's oldest church. Indeed, Amsterdam has as many lovely facets as a 40-carat diamond polished by one of the city's gem cutters. It's certainly a metropolis, but a rather small and very accessible one. Locals tend to refer to it as a big village, albeit one that happens to pack the cultural wallop of a major world destination. There are scores of concerts every day, numerous museums, summertime festivals, and, of course, a legendary year-round party scene. It's pretty much impossible to resist Amsterdam's charms. With 7,000 registered monuments, most of which began as the residences and warehouses of humble merchants, set on 160 man-made canals, and traversed by 1,500 or so bridges, Amsterdam has the largest historical inner city in Europe. Its famous circle of waterways, the grachtengordel, was a 17th-century urban expansion plan for the rich and is a lasting testament to the city’s Golden Age. This town is endearing because of its kinder, gentler nature—but a reputation for championing sex, drugs, and rock ’n’ roll does not alone account for Amsterdam's being one of the most popular destinations in Europe: consider that within a single square mile the city harbors some of the greatest achievements in Western art, from Rembrandt to Van Gogh. Not to mention that this is one of Europe's great walking cities, with so many of its treasures in the untouted details: tiny alleyways barely visible on the map, hidden garden courtyards, shop windows, floating houseboats, hidden hofjes(courtyards with almshouses), sudden vistas of church spires, and gabled roofs that look like so many unframed paintings. And don’t forget that the joy lies in details: elaborate gables and witty gable stones denoting the trade of a previous owner. Keep in mind that those XXX symbols you see all over town are not a mark of the city's triple-X reputation. They're part of Amsterdam's official coat of arms—three St. Andrew's crosses, believed to represent the three dangers that have traditionally plagued the city: flood, fire, and pestilence. The coat's motto ("Valiant, determined, compassionate") was introduced in 1947 by Queen Wilhelmina in remembrance of the 1941 February Strike in Amsterdam—the first time in Europe that non-Jewish people protested against the persecution of Jews by the Nazi regime.

Waterside Restaurant

It is a gourmet island with a buffet in the morning and at lunchtime and a Michelin star-level, fine-dining world in the evening. The oval marble counter and the black-brown wooden mosaic at the entrance of the Waterside Restaurant already hint at a truly stylish interior here. Here, you sit on royal blue velvet armchairs and will do one thing above all: enjoy. Our chefs will enchant you – we promise.

Exclusive

Vintage Room

A place for gourmets and fine wine enthusiasts. The Vintage Room aboard the Riverside Debussy offers an exclusive culinary experience. On selected evenings, our chefs present a refined 6- to 7-course menu, perfectly paired with exquisite wines carefully chosen by our Head Sommelier.

Up to 10 guests gather at the long table to indulge in the fine art of dining in an elegant and intimate atmosphere. For a lighter daytime option, the Champagne Vintage Room offers a thoughtfully composed 4-course lunch menu. Exceptional craftsmanship, elegant surroundings, and distinguished wines make the Vintage Room the perfect setting for unforgettable evenings. Additional charges apply.

At the Atelier, refined flavors, seasonal ingredients, and creative culinary craftsmanship come together to create light, elegant dishes that elevate your day. In the morning, we delight you with fragrant coffee and freshly baked pastries – the perfect start to a leisurely breakfast. At midday, inspired compositions await you, and in the evening, the Atelier reveals its most sophisticated side: pure, refined, and full of flavor. Culinary artistry with a delicate touch.

Additional charges may apply depending on your selected culinary package.

Vista Deck

Home to our bar and barbecue, the Vista Deck is another standout feature on the Riverside Debussy. Picture this: freshly grilled scampi for lunch at our Uniquely Riverside barbecue, a crisp glass of regional Riesling in hand, and the UNESCO-protected, romantic landscapes between Bingen and Bacharach drifting by. Or perhaps you’re toasting the sunset with champagne as the striking silhouettes of the North Rhine’s industrial heritage come into view. Life doesn’t get much better than this.

Bar

Botanist Bar

Welcome to the Botanist Bar – your refined retreat for extraordinary cocktails inspired by herb gardens and spice racks. Here, every drink is a fragrant homage to nature. With great skill and creativity, our bartenders craft sophisticated compositions using aromatic herbs, exotic spices, fresh fruits, and floral essences. Whether it’s lavender, thyme, mint, or rosemary – many ingredients are transformed into house-made syrups and infusions, then paired with premium spirits to create truly unique taste experiences.
