On board the MSC Sinfonia, it's like being in a well-kept holiday hotel on land: good food, a wide range of sports, comfortable staterooms and many entertainment options. Even though it is relaxed and casual, festive attire is recommended on two evenings during a week. On these evenings, however, you can also opt for the buffet restaurant.
MSC Sinfonia Restaurants, bars & lounges
MSC Cruises is an Italian cruise line and so the cuisine is also Italian-influenced. The culinary offering on board MSC Sinfonia includes various restaurants with something for everyone. Drinks are available for an extra charge or you can take advantage of a drinks package.
The following restaurants are included in the price:
- La Terrazza Buffet (buffet restaurant): A variety of dishes from the hot and cold buffet await you here.

In the various lounges and bars (not included) you can enjoy a relaxing cappuccino in Café Le Baroque in the afternoon or savour delicious cocktails in the Manhattan Bar. We also recommend the Irish pub Shelagh's House.

There are many ways to spend your holiday on board. Sports enthusiasts and those seeking relaxation are well catered for in the large fitness and spa area with whirlpools, steam bath and much more.
The pool area offers fun for the whole family. Apart from that, there are other entertainment options, for example the San Remo Casino for adults or the boutiques. In the San Carlo theatre you can watch breathtaking shows. If you prefer to go dancing in the evening, the modern panorama discotheque Pasha Club is just right for you.
