The Spirit has several rooms not found on other Carnival ships, perhaps most noteworthy among them the dining venue, the Nouveau Supper Club. It is located at the top of a soaring nine-deck-high atrium and housed under a red tinted glass dome. Art nouveau is characterized by dense, winding floral forms in a linear arrangement. It incorporates organic shapes – vines, leaves, flowers, branches – into abstracted architectural elements.
In the supper club, pillars are shaped like flower buds in a Tiffany-like design using antiqued copper for the stems and leaves. The floral pattern is carried out throughout the room in hand-painted wall murals, the stained glass balcony on the upper level and the bud-shaped bar stools. On one side of the room is a beverage bar, and on the other, a display cooking area with bar stools, so guests can watch the cooks at work. The circular, two-level room has a stage for entertainers, as well as a dance floor.
There is the Chippendale Library on board the Carnival Spirit. Named after Thomas Chippendale, the 15th-century English style of furniture is recognized by its graceful lines and rococo ornamentation. The room's main features are columns shaped like giant Chippendale table legs. The mural of an English garden overlooks a traditional secretary and bookcases mounted on desks, which hold computer terminals offering internet access for guests.
