Venice Simplon-Orient-Express l’Observatoire Private CarriageVenice Simplon-Orient-Express l’Observatoire Private Carriage
NEWS - An incredible new chapter in the history of the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express, is on the way. After the official launch of a private and exclusive sleeper carriage - l’Observatoire - at Biennale Arte in Venice between the 17 and 22 April 2024, it will be in the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express train from March 2025. L’Observatoire has interiors designed by leading artist JR. For the launch, l’Observatoire carriage was brought by barge into Venice and moored in front of the Hotel Cipriani from 16-19 April, reminiscent of the train's original relaunch in 1982 when two carriages were displayed in the Venice lagoon. Venice Simplon-Orient-Express l’Observatoire Private Carriage is a private haven, featuring a bedroom with double bed, bathroom and freestanding bathtub, wardrobe, reclining day bed, lounge area, a library stocked with hundreds of books and a secret tearoom. Inspired by astronomical observatories, its name encourages occupants to look outward through the cabin windows or to stargaze through the eye-like skylight, and inwardly, discover intricate and hidden details of the carriage. Inspired by Renaissance cabinets of curios, JR has worked with artisans to inject a level of detail specifically for this project. This involved collaborating with masters of marquetry and stained-glass, while also introducing talented new artisans. L'Observatoire is available to book for Venice Simplon-Orient-Express journeys from March 2025. Occupancy: 2 guests in a fixed Double Bed. Price from £80,000 for the carriage, less Club Member discount.
