Silversea Cruises Reveals Details Of New Ship “Silver Nova”

Silversea Cruises has revealed full details on the public venues aboard its new ship Silver Nova, which has the most bars, lounges, and restaurants of any ultra-luxury cruise ship.

Silver Nova will be one of the world’s most spacious ships and one of the most ecologically responsible ships ever built.

When she debuts in August 2023, the 728-guest Silver Nova will have 10 bars and lounges, eight different restaurants, and a variety of additional public venues. Silversea will enhance Silver Nova with a new design approach, a first for the leading ultra-luxury cruise line: guests will benefit from an asymmetrical design and a horizontal layout, which will heighten the ship’s sense of spaciousness and provide a natural flow between venues on entire decks.

“In addition to her pioneering sustainability credentials, Silver Nova will unlock a new luxury experience for our guests, offering an industry-leading variety of bars, lounges, and restaurants with an entirely new design approach for Silversea,” said Barbara Muckermann, President and CEO of Silversea Cruises.

“Silver Nova is a milestone in our effort to construct the best ship for every itinerary, with her multitude of venues boosting the passenger experience to a new level. Pushing the frontiers of ultra-luxury travel, she will enhance the social side of cruising to new heights, promoting the strong feeling of community central to living on board each Silversea ship. Her openness to the places she visits will give guests a unique way of engaging with the world.”

Silver Nova will have all-new public spaces, mainly on decks three, four, and five, and outside on deck 10. The ship’s horizontal layout allows for a better connection between settings. An improved passenger experience runs throughout the ship and changes with each venue depending on the time of day.

Silver Nova will accommodate guests in 364 spacious suites divided into 13 categories—the largest suite categories in Silversea’s history—including a new generation of premium suites on the ship’s rear.

Silver Nova will push the frontiers of ultra-luxury cruise travel with pioneering environmental credentials and present a new design approach for the industry’s leading cruise line with her asymmetrical construction and horizontal layout. She will be the world’s first low-emissions cruise ship, using innovative hybrid technology that uses fuel cells to generate zero local emissions when in port—an industry first.
