Found onboard Silversea’s industry-leading Nova Class ships, the Otium Suite is rich in space; guests unwind in a spacious living area and melt into the bathroom’s dedicated whirlpool tub. The suite’s zenith, however, is the extensive balcony with its 270-degree panoramas (and a second whirlpool tub from which to enjoy them), showcasing the delights of whichever region your ship is cruising. 

‘Spoilt for choice’ is an understatement, as guests uncover a plethora of ways to indulge in passions and entertainment onboard. Dedicated venues further ignite the sense of ultra-luxury; lounges host exclusive musical and theatrical performances, delicious tipples are served up in a myriad of bars, cosy libraries beckon, and, if you’re feeling lucky, the casino is the place to be. 

Departing from Shin-Kobe Station onboard the high-speed bullet train, guests will explore Kyoto, the former ancient capital of Japan. Explore thousands of Buddhist temples, plus marvellous gardens, Shinto shrines, palaces, and traditional wooden houses – many of which are listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites – before a visit to Nijo Castle.
