One of six contemporary ships that Hurtigruten brought on line from 1993 to 1997, the Nordlys is a small-scale cruise ship with a modest array of public rooms and facilities. The ship's art, decor, and colors were inspired by the namesake Northern Lights ("Nordlys"). Public areas are comfortable, though not lavish. As on other Hurtigruten ships, the original artworks that decorate walls of public spaces were provided by Norwegian artists from the country's coastal regions.
