As sister ships of the same class and design, they are 146.8 meter in length and 20.2 meter in width, making them the largest cruise ships Changjiang Shipping has designed so far. They each contain 215 luxury standard rooms, 13 luxury executive rooms on the top deck, and 2 presidential suites on the fore side of 3rd deck, totaling 230 rooms for 460 guests. They also considered the needs of family customers when designing the luxury standard rooms, 100 of which can be upgraded into triple rooms for families, giving each ship a total capacity of about 580 guests.

Among the facilities on President 7&8 are the iconic main lobbies, the elegant double-decker dining rooms decorated with hollow sculptures, multi-functional performance hall and high-end internet cafes. Each room is equipped with an integrated bathing system, and has its own balcony, giving guests the great view of Yangtze River. The new ship design has also made great improvements in terms of safety, traveling comfort and ergonomics.

On the ship, about 200 stewards provide comprehensive services. On average, each steward services 2 or 3 guests, greatly increasing the quality and response efficiency of the service. Whether it’s dining, guest room or entertainment services, professional personnel can give guests the help they need.
