Step on board a newly upgraded Amtrak Superliner sleeper car on the California Zephyr and see inside a roomette I booked for a 15-hour journey. For a price of $400, I secured a cozy 23-square-foot space that exceeded my expectations in comfort and functionality.
The roomette, designed for privacy and relaxation, features two spacious seats that convert into a bed, allowing travelers to enjoy a restful night as the train glides through stunning landscapes. Large windows provide breathtaking views of the passing scenery, making the journey as enjoyable as the destination.
Amenities include a fold-down table for dining and a small closet for personal belongings, ensuring that everything needed for the trip is within easy reach. The attentive onboard staff enhance the experience with their friendly service, offering meals and refreshments throughout the journey.
Overall, the roomette offers a unique and comfortable way to travel across the country, combining the charm of train travel with modern conveniences.
