First Thai restaurant for Norwegian Cruise Line

Norwegian Aqua is the latest evolution of Norwegian Cruise Line's innovative Prima Class and features their first Thai speciality restaurant, Sukhothai, proudly designed by SMC Design.

As guests step into Sukhothai, they are instantly transported and immersed into the heart of Thai culture. The lighting in the restaurant is soft and atmospheric, with dynamically crafted pendant lights which reflect that of bamboo and rice paper casting a warm glow.

The flooring has a striking geometric pattern which is then flanked with dark rich concave timber panels, these are up lit to give a sense of grandeur and importance throughout the space.

Feature walls are adorned with vibrant silk tapestries inspired by the arts and crafts and serene landscapes of Thai culture, adding a pop of colour and vibrancy to the space. Bamboo accents, such as decorative screens and ceiling panels, further enhance the ambiance, evoking the natural beauty of Thailand.

The seats are rich and plush giving a luxurious feel throughout the space, whilst the artisan table tops and cutlery layout give an authentic feel to the dining experience.

Overall, the interior design of the Thai restaurant is a celebration of Thai culture and heritage, offering guests an immersive dining experience that delights the senses and leaves a lasting impression.

Due to set sail in April 2025, watch this space for more updates on Norwegian Aqua soon.
