The Empress of the North, the only overnight sternwheeler cruising Alaska, maintains a balance of yesterday’s historic charm and today’s modern comforts. Easy-going yet elegant, the 231-guest sternwheeler offers all outside staterooms with large river view windows and modern conveniences like a refrigerator, mini-bar, individual thermostat, CD-player and television. The spacious bathroom includes a shower, hair dryer, clothesline and vanity with abundant storage space. The Empress of the North features an extensive gallery of artwork and artifacts from Alaska and the Pacific Northwest, including a rare collection of Russian nesting dolls, Fabergé eggs and native Alaskan masks and carvings. Historic photographs and documents highlight Gold Rush history, and an onboard historian leads daily presentations and discussions. You can relax in the Paddlewheel Lounge, be entertained in the Golden Nugget Showroom, or unwind in the Calliope Bar and Grill. Enjoy varied cuisine in The Romanov Dining Room, which features elaborately-carved columns, luxurious chandeliers and a faux sky-domed ceiling.
