Hot on the heels of its anticipated return to the rails in February 2024, the Eastern & Oriental Express, A Belmond Train, Southeast Asia has announced a long-term partnership with the House of Dior to create the Dior Spa Eastern & Oriental Express, marking the luxury brand’s first spa in the region. The train takes travellers on seasonal journeys departing from Singapore and travelling through Malaysia. The addition of a Dior Spa will offer guests a wellness space to unwind after adventures in the lush mountains and verdant jungles of Southeast Asia. The spa will be housed in one of the train’s 16 plush Art Deco-inspired carriages, boasting the House of Dior’s iconic canework, whilst taking inspiration from the beauty of the region.

Using hand-crafted tropical wood materials, the interior is designed to blend with the natural surroundings bringing the essence of the region to life through its carefully curated ambience. Paying homage to Christian Dior’s love for flowers, the new spa will use rose emblems on the carriage carpets, in shades of green and cream. Furniture adorned in the iconic toile de jouy print will showcase the tiger, a nod to the Malaysian sacred tigers known to the region. A dedicated reception area to discover the spa and its premium range of products will lead guests into a calming space, expanding into two luxurious rooms. The new wellbeing menu will feature five tailor-made treatments, devised by the French Maison’s wellness experts. The bespoke approach caters to the specific needs of guests, offering a truly immersive and luxurious experience.
