Orient Express is a Paris-based hospitality company established in 2015 to grow its eponymous luxury brand within the realms of travel and refined living, guided by the history and values associated with its legendary train. Drawing on the long-running tradition of travel and hospitality initiated by Georges Nagelmakers in 1883, it curates events aboard fully restored historic carriages as part of its offerings. The firm operates in the luxury segment of the hospitality industry, focusing on experiential travel that blends heritage with high-end service.

In 2026 the brand expanded its footprint with Orient Express Venezia, a new outpost in Venice housed in a restored 15th-century palazzo in Cannaregio. The company has announced notable itineraries for the year, including Grand Italian Tours launching in June and a Rome-to-Istanbul rail venture planned for October. Additionally, it has pursued collaborations with other luxury brands, such as a sailing yacht project developed with Chantiers de l'Atlantique and a partnership with Ritz-Carlton on sailing yachts.
