Onboard Cabins / Reserved Seating

There's a choice of 50 cabins, all of which are en-suite. A cot is available upon request at the reception desk.

In terms of seating, there are high quality sleeper seats set over 2 lounges (1 private and 1 in an open area) and recline fully to turn into 2.1m long horizontal beds. The Côte d'Albâtre also has free standard type seats so that you can relax during the crossing.

Onboard Food and Drink

All tastes are catered for at 'Maupassant' - a pleasant self-service restaurant offering superb value for money as well as a children’s menu and vegetarian options.

There's an attractive split level panoramic bar called 'Corneille' with superb sea views. Whether you are looking for a coffee, fruit juice, some fine French wine or a cold beer there's something on offer for everyone.

Onboard Shopping

Onboard the Côte d'Albâtre there's a range of specially selected alcohols, tobaccos, perfumes, toys, books, cameras and chocolates, as well as gift ideas and daily newspapers.

Travelling with children

There's a number of areas set aside especially for children with play-zones, video games and cartoons to keep children of all ages entertained.

Accessibility

There is a cabin that has been specially adapted for passengers with reduced mobility. Unfortunately there is no access to the Open Space (economy) sleeper seat lounge for wheelchair bound passengers.
