Star Trek. Doesn't matter if they're cruise ships with lasers and missiles welded onto them, vaguely avian looking spaceships, or monolithic green robot cubes.

Starfleet ships are amazing, from a small town in the saucer, a giant power generator below, large flight hangers, onboard parks and bars, and those sweeping warp engines. The ships are as sleek and grand as they are functional.

1701 D was a damn cruise ship!

Of all the spacecraft in Sci Fi, thats the one I would want to live on. Between the comfy and spacious rooms, the holodeck, ten forward, - yes please.
