Hotel Cipriani, A Belmond Hotel, Venice renews its collaboration with Dior, launching the first Dior Spa in the city. Following the Dioriviera pop up at Hotel Cipriani, the Dior Spa is set to become the quintessential destination for Dior Haute Wellness, offering an unparalleled experience of luxury and rejuvenation, a new wellbeing sanctuary in the heart of Venice.

Open for resident and non-resident guests, this New Haven of wellbeing blends traditional Venetian aesthetic codes with those of Dior Spa, across two floors, featuring five treatment cabins, and an exclusive boutique showcasing Dior’s most prestigious perfume, skincare and makeup collections. Masterfully designed by the visionary eye of architect and interior designer, Peter Marino, as part of the second phase of a multi–phase renovation of Hotel Cipriani, natural materials and pastel tones seamlessly combine Marino’s aesthetics with the distinctive savoir-faire of Dior Spa.

DIOR CHOSES HOTEL CIPRIANI FOR THE FIRST SPA IN VENICE

The architectural narrative was conceived as a dialogue between the timeless elegance of Dior and the rich cultural heritage of Venice. The design draws inspiration from multiple layers of the city’s identity – combining the decorative richness of 18th-century Venetian Rococo, the refined modernity of Venetian design from the 1950s and 60s, and the vitality of contemporary Venice. Rather than recreating a historical setting, the project reinterprets these influences through a contemporary lens.

At the same time, the interiors reflect the enduring codes of the House of Dior: exceptional craftsmanship, refined proportions, understated luxury, and meticulous attention to detail. Every material, finish, and architectural gesture was carefully considered to create an atmosphere of elegance and serenity, where beauty is expressed through both artistry and precision. The result is a spa that feels deeply rooted in its Venetian context while embodying the spirit of Dior – a destination where heritage, craftsmanship, and contemporary luxury come together to create a uniquely immersive experience.

Inside, the space showcases Dior’s signature elements: superb artistry, balanced design, subtle opulence, and careful detailing. Every choice, from materials to finishes and architectural touches, was made to foster an environment of grace and tranquillity, where beauty is achieved through both artistic flair and exactness. This creates a spa that truly belongs to Venice, while also capturing the essence of Dior – a place where tradition, craftsmanship, and modern luxury merge to offer a truly encompassing experience.

Traditional techniques such as stucco and Venetian terrazzo create a unique ambience, and celebrate Venice’s artisanal excellence, recalling Monsieur Dior’s profound affection for Venice, an admiration that began in 1951 when he attended the “ball of the century” invited by the art collector Charles Beistegui.

The spa’s new entrance, now accessible via the sanctuary of Hotel Cipriani’s lush Casanova Gardens and the iconic swimming pool, the largest in central Venice, extends its reach beyond its indoor spaces, forming a tranquil link between the heritage building and the natural world. The gardens elevate the guests’ experience by bringing in natural light, greenery, the rhythm of the seasons, and fresh air into their wellness journey, thereby enhancing the spa’s peaceful and restorative ambiance.

SIGNATURE TREATMENTS FOR AN EXCLUSIVE WELLNESS EXPERIENCE

The Spa menu reflects the three pillars on which Dior’s Haute Wellness philosophy is founded: Haute Definition, Haute Precision and Haute Touch, offering iconic treatments such as New Look, D – Tissue, Constellation and 9 Moons for the body, and Kobi–Dior, Golden Aura and Dior Powered by Hydrafacial for the face.

In addition, three exclusive signature treatments pay homage to Monsieur Dior’s love for Venice and masked balls, blending the Maison’s savoir – faire with choreographed techniques.

Mascarade face protocol is inspired by Venetian mascareri, masks craftsmen. This sensory facial ritual uses technology and manual techniques to reveal radiant skin. It starts with an abdominal stimulation and LED light therapy, followed by diamond abrasion and myofascial release for a lifted, luminous complexion. A Dior Prestige cream mask with Biosonix technology revitalizes, while a deep massage with microcurrent stimulation tones and redefines facial contours. The ritual concludes with Le Masque Frais and cryotherapy for hydration, plumping, and a refreshed, glowing look, preparing the skin for makeup with lasting radiance.

Grand Bal is the ritual for memorable events with treatments for hair, face, hands and feet. This personalized Dior ritual offers a harmonious blend of self-care and glamour. It features a revitalizing scalp treatment, a purifying facial, and a complete hand ritual. Guests then receive personalized hairstyling and professional makeup application, finished with a touch of fragrance. Three Dior Wellness Experts can work in synchronicity to ensure an impeccable, efficient, and luxurious experience, leaving guests radiant and confident.

The Théatre Corporel – this four-hand ritual by two Dior Wellness Experts is a choreographed dialogue of precision and intuition, aiming to restore balance, reconnect body and mind, and achieve deep inner harmony.

The ritual begins with a rosewood exfoliation, awakening the senses and preparing for surrender. Guests actively participate through guided breathing. The first act involves warm aromacological oils applied in synchronicity to release tension and restore vitality. The second act focuses on deep myofascial release to harmonize muscles and re-establish balance. The ritual concludes with gentle stretching, leading to a serene return to the present moment, where the body radiates light and well-being. Dior transforms expert gestures into a living art of rebirth.

Two holistic experiences have been developed with International Wellness Experts. The Self Alignment Cruise, designed with functional medicine practitioner Rose Ferguson, offers an immersive journey to find the best version of oneself, through journaling and meditation, aboard a private boat. Pilates coach Bryony Deery has created the multisensory Grounding Slow Movement Therapy experience. A blend of relaxation combining guided breathing with slow, deep Pilates movements.

Dior Spa at Hotel Cipriani opened 15th July 2026 both to guests and the public daily from 10AM until 7pm.
