Learn more about MS Polarlys

 

Vessel

With 7 decks, 123 meters long and 19.5 meters wide, the MS Polarlys can take 619 passengers and 70 crew members to northern Norway and Scandinavia.

 

Activities and entertainment

Athletes can do some physical activity right from the port and between stops in the fitness room on deck 7. Then, for moments of well-being, try out the sauna on deck 2, the two whirlpool baths on deck 6 , or the upper deck solarium.

 

If you want to buy some souvenirs and clothes, it is possible at the ship's shop on deck 4.

 

You can also consult books from the library. But above all, during this cruise with Hurtigruten, you have the opportunity to attend fascinating conferences by the expedition team.

 

This cruise will be particularly enriching, allowing you to deepen your knowledge of the regions visited, the ecosystem and the culture of the country.

 

Gastronomy, bars and lounges

You can treat yourself aboard the MS Polarlys with three restaurants and a pastry shop. The three catering options located on deck 4 are an opportunity to taste Scandinavian specialties, fish, seafood... The chefs cook with fresh products from the region. You can have all meals at Torget, the main dining room.

 

The Krysten is a chic gourmet restaurant, open only in the evening and serving refined dishes.

 

As for Bistro Brygga, it is perfect for fast food. For a gourmet break, the Multe pastry will awaken your taste buds.

 

Finally, for convivial relaxation, take a seat in the Explorer lounge bar. You can enjoy hot or alcoholic drinks there, while admiring the landscape and the view of the sea.

 

Accommodation on board the MS Polarlys

As the MS Polarlys was renovated in 2016, the cabins are modern, comfortable and functional.

 

Polar indoor and outdoor cabins are the most economical. The area is 8 to 12 square meters. These cabins have a shower room and WC, separate, double or bunk beds.

 

As for the exterior ones, they have a porthole or a porthole to take advantage of the view of the sea. The Arctic Superior category (10 to 13 meters²) is more comfortable.

 

For maximum comfort, treat yourself to an Expedition suite of 16 to 30 square meters with a double bed and sea view.

 

Environment

The Hurtigruten company tries to reduce the environmental footprint. It has thus modernized all its ships with shore power. This technology reduces NOx and CO2 emissions. It also provides environmental monitoring.

 

It is also leading a campaign to ban discharges at sea and the use of heavy fuel oil in Arctic waters.
