About the Majestic Imperator Train de Luxe

The Austro-Hungarian Empire has vanished into the mists of time, leaving cultural and architectural treasures, and this lovingly re-created Imperial Train.

As you approach the Majestic Imperator Train de Luxe, the atmosphere of the past is redolent of romance and mystery. On boarding, one's breath is taken away by the sumptuous elegance of a bygone era.

The luxury carriages are based on the imperial train of the Emperor Franz Joseph I and Empress Elisabeth of Austria (Sisi). Surrounded by the splendour of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, one can absorb the magic of days gone by.

Sisi's favourite colour was blue, which is used in the carriage named after her, whilst other carriages sport rich golds or deep greens, wood-carved Italian chairs and paintings of the Royal family. The ambiance created by these carriages during the day, turns into a romantic setting by night.

Accommodation, Majestic Imperator Train de Luxe

The Ambassador Car. Ambassador seats up to 36 guests for fine dining and features a beautiful piano bar. Part of the original curtain of the Emperor's balcony at the Vienna State Opera is prominently displayed, featuring the hand woven crest of the Monarch.

The Salon Elisabeth. Salon Elisabeth has 24 dining seats in the salon and 24 luxury compartment seats in 4 private compartments and is named for the legendary Empress Elisabeth, lovingly known as "Sissy", the travelling Empress. The original curtain from the Emperor's balcony in the Vienna State Opera hangs in the Salon, with freshwater pearls from the Danube.

Equipage. Equipage seats 36 guests, and has a bar. The curtains are the same as at the Schönbrunn Castle, the summer residence of the Habsburg rulers. Tables and chairs can be moved as required, for lectures, a ballroom dance floor or other arrangement of choice.

Excelsior Car. Excelsior replicates a carriage in the original Imperial Train and affords a 360 degree panoramic view. There is seating for up to 43 guests as well as a bar and a dance floor. The original mirror of Empress Elisabeth's carriage hangs in Excelsior.

Salon 1. Salon 1 is a replica of Emperor Franz Josef I's 1905 parlour car designed for up to 14 people. It was manufactured in Prague by Ringhofer-Smichow, which also constructed the original Imperial Train in 1891. Amenities include 14 dinner seats and 18 regular seats in the coupés. There is a bar, a cloakroom and two lavatories. The additional 18 seats in 3 luxury compartments exude cosiness, known as "Gemütlichkeit", for which Austria's coffee-houses are famous. Here too there is a 360 panoramic view.
