Belmond

We offer luxury hotels, trains, river cruises, and safaris across 24 countries and territories. We focus on crafting unique experiences, highlighting both the destination and the journey itself.

Our story began in 1976 when we acquired Hotel Cipriani in Venice. Since then, our portfolio has grown to 43 properties. They include resorts like Maroma on the Riviera Maya, Villa San Michele in Florence, Copacabana Palace in Rio de Janeiro, and Hotel das Cataratas near Brazil’s Iguassu National Park.

We’ve been a leader in ‘slow travel’ since 1982, operating the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express. Our other offerings include the Britannic Explorer, a luxury sleeper train in England and Wales, and train journeys that connect Italy with stays at our hotels. We collaborate with chefs, designers, and artists to enrich our guests’ experiences. Since 2019, we have been part of LVMH (Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton).

Our mission is to connect travelers with exceptional properties, locations, and journeys, keeping the art of legendary travel alive.

We want our guests to discover a new pace of travel, where they can savor time, engage with local culture, and connect with nature and people through unique experiences. As custodians of historic properties, we are committed to building on the past to create a new legacy—what we call the ‘heritage of the future’.

We also aim to “tread lightly and make a positive contribution to the many destinations where we operate,” by working with local communities and talents.

Belmond is a global hospitality company with 5,001 to 10,000 employees. Belmond cultivates a global environment that prioritizes data literacy and promotes a digital, data-driven culture across its divisions.

Some roles allow for hybrid work, with employees working remotely up to two days per week. The culture emphasizes collaboration with both internal teams and external partners. This approach supports timely, high-quality project delivery and the continuous evolution of our visual identities and services.

We offer our employees a competitive salary and benefits package, often exceeding industry standards. This can include private health insurance, life insurance, and a savings fund. Employees also receive complimentary and discounted stays at our properties. We provide development opportunities through programs like Harvard Management Online Training.

For our UK-based employees, additional benefits include competitive salaries and incentive plans, private medical and dental plans, a Group Personal Pension Plan, 33 days’ annual leave, lifestyle and employee assistance programs, and onsite gym facilities. Meal vouchers are also provided. Corporate benefits extend across Belmond and LVMH offerings.
