Belmond Hotels

Belmond Hotels, a name synonymous with luxury and adventure, traces its roots back to 1976 when they first took ownership of the iconic Hotel Cipriani in Venice. The subsequent year saw the beginning of their collection of carriages for the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express, which commenced operations in 1982, providing a stylish journey for daring voyagers to the enchanting city of La Serenissima. In 2019, Belmond Hotels fortified its position as a global leader in luxury by becoming a part of LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton. Over the past four decades, Belmond has been driven by a pioneering spirit and an unwavering commitment to authenticity, curating some of the world's most exhilarating travel experiences. Today, their portfolio extends beyond hotels to include distinctive trains, river cruises, and safari lodges located in breathtaking destinations worldwide, each with its own unique and captivating story. This makes them an ideal partner for LuxRally Travel.

  3. Human heritage: Belmond seeks to learn from and ally with the communities present in their operational destinations.



In 2021, Belmond intensified its sustainability efforts through a partnership with EarthCheck, a global leader in scientific benchmarking, certification, and advisory services for travel and tourism. This collaboration enables Belmond to monitor resources effectively, track improvements, and identify challenges in areas like solid waste management, water and energy use, responsible procurement, and social and cultural management.


As they gaze into the future, Belmond continues to find innovative ways to progress heritage and increase their global impact.
