CroisiEurope has relaunched the 106-passenger Douce France II, which has been transformed into what the company designates as a premium-class ship.

Following the redesign, the Rhine River ship now features more open spaces and natural light, and has been outfitted in a contemporary design aesthetic. The public spaces include a bar and lounge with a dance floor, a restaurant, a boutique and a sun deck with lounge chairs.

The ship measures 361 feet in length and is 36 feet wide. There are four single-occupancy cabins at 108 square feet, two suites at 248 square feet and the remaining cabins, including one designed for passengers with reduced mobility, at 161 square feet.
