The iconic Hotel Cipriani, A Belmond Hotel, in Venice, unveiled the new Dior Spa on 15 July. The French luxury house’s relationship with the Italian city spans decades, and the opening of this new wellness destination further strengthens the collaboration between Dior and Belmond.
Founded by Giuseppe Cipriani in 1958, the hotel has recently undergone an extensive renovation, resulting in the opening of the first Dior Spa in Venice. Designed by architect Peter Marino, the space combines traditional Venetian aesthetic codes with those of Dior Spa, featuring natural materials in soft, refined tones.
This partnership with luxury travel brand Belmond embodies the concept of Dior Haute Wellness. Spanning two floors, the new wellness retreat features five treatment rooms — including one double suite — a relaxation lounge and a boutique showcasing Dior’s most prestigious fragrance, skincare and makeup collections.
The spa also offers the new Dior Haute Wellness collection, centred around three key pillars: slow movement, with accessories for yoga and Pilates; mindfulness, featuring objects dedicated to journaling, meditation and breathwork; and sleep, with weighted blankets, sleep masks and pillowcases.
The treatment menu includes exclusive signature experiences inspired by Venetian masquerade balls, combining choreographed sequences of expert techniques with the latest technologies, including ultrasound waves, cryotherapy, LED light therapy, sheet masks and rich cream masks.
Guests can choose from body, hair and facial treatments, all of which can be enhanced with hot stone therapy, LED light gloves and masks, or highly concentrated facial serums. Reflexology, back and head massages, body exfoliation and dry brushing are also available.
To further elevate the wellness experience, guests can enjoy weighted blankets, warm cherry stone pillows and herbal masks during their treatments. Afterwards, they are invited to unwind in the spa’s relaxation area, complete with elegant daybeds, detox drinks and healthy snacks created in collaboration with the hotel’s restaurant chefs.
