Description

Palms Café

Lido

Plucked from the pages of a Somerset Maugham novel, the tropical-style mood of this room is captured by a profusion of Kentia palms and the wood-grained surround of the large oval buffet. The pale-blue and aqua plaid curtains set off two specially-commissioned murals, while the wood and terracotta-tiled floor accentuates elegantly carved Italian chairs. With panoramic views, this al fresco room brings a refreshing ambience to breakfast and lunch.

Thistle Restaurant

Main

Surrounded by ocean views on three sides, this chic salon is enhanced by cream and beige striped wall coverings, accentuated by a shimmering gold overlay, toning with sycamore veneer panelling. The 380 mocha-coloured chairs blend impercebtibly with the specially commissioned carpet - highlighted by a thistle flourish. A diffused opalescence from stylish cone-shaped wall-lights envelopes the tables of 2,4, 6, 8 and 10. The raised central section is separated from the surrounding tables by an opaque glass balustrade proudly emblazoned with an etched thistle motif.

Library

Bridge

Adjacent to the four-deck atrium with its trompe loeil panels, the Library on Bridge Deck overflows in rich tones of reds and russets. This restrained room surrounded by glass-fronted bookcases, has mahogany tables and chairs as well as a small sofa.

Internet Centre

Marquee

Braemar has her very own Internet Centre allowing access to the World Wide Web for her passengers. Access to the Internet is chargeable with the purchase of a smart card from Reception. The smart card is charged with a period of time, usually 30 minutes, and it is inserted into a card reader on the computer which then allows access to the Internet. If you have an Internet based email account these can easily be accessed from the ship. If you do not have one currently then they can be set up before you cruise. We recommend Yahoo Mail, which is very simple to set up. Full instructions on how to set up email accounts are on board and the ship has also been running Internet Master Classes for passengers.

Pool

Marquee

The perfect place to head on a hot, sunny day there is plenty of space to sun yourself on the comfortable sun loungers whilst the pool & Jacuzzis are ideal for a relaxing swim.

Braemar Room

Lounge

This elegant venue for morning coffee and afternoon tea exudes a homely feel. Midnight-blue and gold chairs along with contrasting sofas in gold and bronze enrich the aura of tranquillity while the bar with its conical green leather stools is as congenial as it is stylish.

Coral Club

Lounge

This sophisticated lounge, seating 170 guests, is the venue for port lectures, classical music performances and occasional dancing. The design of the tub chairs and banquettes in indigo blue, is contrasted by the specially-commissioned coral carpet with shell design.

Neptune Lounge

Lounge

All around, a spectrum of vibrant and subtle yellows is enriched by pastel terracottas, while the honey-gold walls create a contemporary pastiche. Restrained yellow-tinted rope-and-trellis patterned carpets blend with brandy-toned tinges in this elegant room.

Skylark Club

Bridge

Braemars late-night spot, with its Italian-designed tub chairs and comfy banquettes, is as intimate as any at sea. Detailed in deep ocean blues and bold orange hues, this room is dominated by an attractive bar crafted from dark blue stone. Glass doors lead onto a sculptured terrace for dancing under the stars, while optional partitions ensure privacy for small cocktail parties.
