About Belmond

Belmond traces its roots to 1976, when the Hotel Cipriani in Venice became the first of its now-famous collection. Today, as part of LVMH, Belmond brings together some of the most iconic names in travel, from Hotel Caruso on the Amalfi Coast, Splendido in Portofino and Grand Hotel Timeo in Sicily to the Copacabana Palace in Rio de Janeiro, Mount Nelson in Cape Town and Sanctuary Lodge at the gates of Machu Picchu.

What makes Belmond truly distinctive is that the journey itself becomes the destination. Alongside its hotels, the brand operates some of the world’s most celebrated luxury trains, including the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express across Europe, the Royal Scotsman through the Scottish Highlands and the Andean Explorer in Peru. Belmond also offers leisurely canal journeys on private barges in France and safari lodges in Botswana, making it possible to combine many experiences into one seamless itinerary.

Each property and journey celebrates its heritage and setting, with timeless design, gracious service and a strong sense of romance. Guests can expect exceptional dining, often rooted in regional traditions, along with spas, curated excursions and thoughtful touches that bring the destination to life. Belmond suits couples on honeymoon or anniversary trips, travelers who love history and craftsmanship, families planning a once-in-a-lifetime journey and anyone who dreams of travel with a sense of occasion.

We can book eligible stays and journeys through Belmond’s Bellini Club, which can include benefits such as daily breakfast for two at hotels, a room upgrade when available, and a flexible hotel or resort credit, or an onboard credit on trains and cruises. Benefits vary by property and rate and are confirmed when you inquire. We can help you choose the right Belmond hotel, train or journey, combine them into a single itinerary and arrange every detail for a truly memorable experience.
