Accor lifts a first veil on the third generation of the Orient Express, before its launch on the rails in 2025.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Accor Group<\/strong>, owner of the Orient-Express<\/strong> brand, is reinventing the mythical train, which it plans to put back on European rails in early 2025.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The first images of the train evoke a real luxurious cocoon on rails<\/strong>, in which a maximum of 64 people can travel. It will feature marble, rosewood, mother-of-pearl and bronze beads, designer seats and an art deco style dining car.<\/p>\n

Orient Express, the subsidiary in charge of promoting the heritage of the famous train, wants to “become one with the myth”<\/em> and “reinvent”<\/em> it as a luxury hotel that will move from one capital to another, explains to AFP<\/em><\/strong> its vice-president Guillaume de Saint Lager.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The new train will follow the historic route of the Orient-Express, linking Paris to Constantinople\/Istanbul from 1883 to 1977.<\/strong> But this will not be its only route, according to its vice-president, who nevertheless remains mysterious about the other future routes. Fares have not yet been revealed, but the trips are estimated to cost several tens of thousands of euros.<\/p>\n

The first three refurbished cars, including the bar and restaurant, will be on display in Paris during the 2024 Olympic Games.<\/strong> In total, the train will be composed of 17 vintage cars of the “real” Orient-Express of the 1920s, 13 of which were found, abandoned, at the Belarusian border.<\/strong><\/p>\n
