Your entrance into the main Coral Dining Room is from the Garden Court area of the Atrium on E Deck. Three sets of beautifully etched glass doors give you an enticing view into this elegant dining room, with ocean views running along both the port and starboard sides. The soft pastel hues of this room are complemented by attractive paintings that depict Mediterranean countryside scenes, which are set into light marble and cherrywood adorned walls. The marble theme is extended to the four central pillars that stand proud in the centre of the room. You will find this restaurant is a refined place to dine either early morning for breakfast, at lunch, or mid-afternoon for afternoon tea and, of course, in the evening for a delectable six course dinner.

Lido

High atop the ship on Lido Deck aft is the Conservatory. Floor-to-ceiling windows provide wonderful ocean views and give the room a light airy feel. Here you can enjoy informal self-service dining with a tempting array of food laid out before you. From early morning you can re-energise with breakfast, top up with a cold or hot lunch and refresh with afternoon tea. Then, at night, the lights are turned down and the warm glow of sunset and table candles create a unique intimate ambience. The tables are dressed for dinner as you choose from a delectable grill menu, as the Conservatory turns into The Grill. In warmer climes you will also be able to dine al fresco on the terrace.

The Monte Carlo casino is centrally located on D Deck and is adorned with rich red fabrics including red leather chairs around the red felt gaming tables, giving the casino a sumptuous, glamorous feel. In addition to the two roulette tables and three blackjack tables, you will find over fifty slot machines. This is just as a casino should be - the low ceiling creates an intimate atmosphere and at night it comes alive to the sound of excited anticipation, which is infectious to those who are simply there to watch. This is a great place to continue a fun night out after post dinner drinks or a show.

There are two entrances into The Festival Theatre, you can either enter the starboard side from Tiffany?s on D Deck or use the door that leads off from the forward staircase foyer on D Deck. Despite its name, this small room is actually used most frequently as a cinema, showing all the latest new releases, as well as a few old classics. It?s also a lecture theatre, where you can hear about the next destination on your itinerary with our port lectures, or perhaps listen to a talk given by a guest lecturer as part of the New Horizons programme. You may even catch a performance here by a solo musician. As you would expect, the room is appropriately dark with tiered seating rising from the small stage.

Just forward of Tiffany?s is the card room - Trumps, on D Deck starboard. You enter this room either from the glass doors leading from Tiffany?s or from the forward lifts. Inside you will find twelve card tables covered in the characteristic green felt. Large windows framed by cream curtains allow wonderful ocean views and imbue the room with natural daylight. If you aren?t too au fait with Bridge but would like to learn, then this is the perfect place to do so ? a resident Bridge teacher is on hand to impart their knowledge and tips. Of course you can come into this room at any time to play the game of your choice with friends, or even to enjoy the peace and quiet with a book.

The Library is located on D Deck aft, nestled between Starlights and the Future Cruise and The Portunus Club desk. Dark wood cabinets with clear glass house a vast selection of books of every genre. The blue seats contrast well and provide a comfortable seating area in which to relax with a carefully chosen book. Within the Library you will find an area is given over to Waterstones book shop so you can simply borrow a book and return it or buy one to take home ? the choice is entirely yours.

The Cyb@study is perfectly positioned on the main starboard side corridor on D Deck, running between Starlights and Tiffany?s. Just like the Library two doors down, the Cyb@study is panelled in dark wood that gives it an intimate, homely feel. You can tuck yourself away to send emails to friends and family, or join one of the I.T. courses that are held on board.

The Future Cruise Sales desk and The Portunus Club Loyalty Manager?s desk occupy a quiet corner of the D Deck starboard corridor at the aft of Artemis. The dark wood panelling, desks and comfortable chairs that characterise the adjacent Library are continued through to this area, creating a relaxed environment in which to discuss your future cruises or your membership to The Portunus Club.

The Photo Gallery is conveniently located in the wide portside corridor that links Tiffany?s and the International Lounge on D Deck. This is where the Ship?s Photographers display the professional photographs they have taken throughout your cruise. Here you can purchase timeless mementoes of your time on board Artemis. You can also put your camera film in for developing or download your digital photographs.

E

Situated on E Deck portside, just between the entrance to the Coral Dining Room and the Reception Desk, is the Tours Office. Plasma screens set into the light wood panelling displays information about your next port of call so you can plan your day. Knowledgeable staff are on hand to offer advice and assistance to ensure you either choose a suitable tour, or, if you want to explore independently, they are more than happy to impart their wealth of knowledge.

The Celebrations desk nestles on E Deck ? the lower level of the Atrium ? at the bottom of the starboard side staircase, which sweeps down from Tiffany?s above. On display you will find extravagant floral displays carefully crafted by the resident florist, as well as a wonderful selection of gifts, which you can buy for loved ones or friends.

Small but perfectly formed, this compact shop can be found on D Deck just aft of Tiffany?s on the starboard side. It stocks all of the essentials that you could want from sweets and snacks to souvenirs and toiletries. So don?t worry if you have forgotten to pack something.

Mayfair, found on D Deck midships, just beyond Tiffany?s, is an Aladdin?s cave of souvenirs, perfumes, make up, jewellery and clothing, and can be accessed from both port and starboard. So, once you?ve shopped for gifts for loved ones and friends, and treated yourself to a little something special, you can take a break from your retail therapy with a well-deserved coffee and chocolates next door in Tiffany?s.

Lido

On Lido Deck, just next to the Conservatory, is where you will find the Crystal Bar and Pool. Clear glass runs along both sides making it feel warmer and more enclosed than the Riviera Pool, but still allowing you ocean views. And, if you want a break from the sun, then you can relax in the shade provided by the deck above. Set in the middle of the teak deck space is a cluster of circular pools and jacuzzis. The circular shape is perfect for a quick refreshing dip, but if you want to swim some lengths then you should head for the Riviera Pool. The Crystal Pool and Bar, with attractive wooden bar stools, provides the perfect setting for deck barbeques, sunbathing and relaxing during the day. In warmer climes the Crystal Bar remains open into early evening so you can bask in the warm gl

The Riviera Pool can be found on Sun Deck forward. If you would like to swim a few lengths then this is the pool for you. The surrounding area is perfect for sunbathing and the nearby bar and its stewards will be sure to keep you refreshed throughout the day. Stairs from this deck area lead up to a viewing platform, which affords visitors superb views, especially when you are sailing into a new port.

Tiffany?s is centrally located at the heart of Artemis at the top of the Atrium, D Deck midships. You can reach this speciality coffee and chocolate bar by ascending the sweeping staircase from Garden Court (E Deck) or by following either the port or starboard corridor to the centre of the ship. The centrepiece of this room is the very inspiration for its name - the Tiffany glass ceiling that crowns the Atrium ? its colourful hues and the light that pours through it bathes the room in warm ambient light.

High atop the ship is one of Artemis? loveliest bars ? the Horizon Lounge. To reach the bar go to the aft of the ship and take the lift to Sun Deck. As the name suggests, this bar affords visitors wonderful views of the horizon and its cream leather bar stools and comfortable chairs provide the perfect place to relax and read a book during the day. But it is at night when the room is at its most attractive. As the sun begins to set, the warm light pours in through floor-to-ceiling windows, bathing the room in warm golden light. As an attentive steward refreshes your drink you can converse with friends or simply sit back and listen to the melodic music as the pianist tickles the ivories of the baby grand piano. Later still, Horizons Lounge comes alive to the sound of music of a differen

At the forward end of D Deck you?ll find the International Lounge and Bar. Most of the evening stage shows and acts are performed on the lounge?s perfectly suited stage. The ample supply of comfortable show lounge seats arc around the stage in tiers and the vibrant colour schemes of vivid reds and sparkly fabrics add a dramatic touch to the room. Enter on the port side and you?ll immediately be met by the marbled bar and a welcoming bar steward you can either order you favourite tipple en route to your seat or find the perfect spot and wait for the stewards to come to you. This room is the perfect post dinner and late night venue for those who wish to be entertained by our theatre company one night, and perhaps a comedian or soloist the next.

Starlights spans the breadth of the ship and is located on D Deck aft. If you enter this room from the port side you?ll be met by the long marbled bar that sweeps into the room. Red leather bar stools and pillars characterise this room and give it a sumptuous feel. During the day you can catch up on your favourite sport or the latest news shown on large plasma screens. Alternatively, learn to tango or cha cha cha with a dance class on the superb dance floor that occupies the centre of the room. This room really comes to life at night. The low ceiling and soft lighting creates an intimate feel. And you can enjoy performances by a live band or cabaret artist on the centre stage, as a steward refreshed your drink. The atmosphere in this room is sure to make you want to get up and dance.

Set in the heart of Artemis, D and E Deck midships, this elegant two-tier atrium with its Tiffany glass ceiling is a hive of activity. The lower level is called Garden Court; from here you?ll have access to the Reception, Celebrations, the Tours Office and, perhaps most importantly, the Coral Dining Room. The attractive fountain sculpture called Spindrift by David Norris provides a stunning centrepiece to this relaxing space. Fine light wood panelling adorns the walls and sweeping staircases on either side lead to the upper level. Here you will find Tiffany?s speciality coffee and chocolate bar, named after its crowning glory ? the tiffany glass ceiling that presides over both levels of the Atrium. The seating in Tiffany?s runs around the circumference of the Atrium, affording you excel
