As one of the preeminent luxury hotel brands in the world, Fairmont Hotels & Resorts has entered into a strategic collaboration with Devialet, the world's foremost luxury audio technology company. This partnership intends to enhance the guest experience in all 96 Fairmont Hotels worldwide by creating immersive multi-sensory experiences with Devialet's advanced sound systems in the hotel's public spaces and guest rooms. This immersion includes the luxury and hospitality Fairmont is known for, with a focus on the sound -- not just listening, but feeling the sound.
This partnership redefines luxury hospitality by attending on the fine details woven into each of the hotel's sound systems. Attentive to both public as well as private spaces, customized audio experiences promise to envelop Fairmont guests with a new tier of connection and elegance.
A Seamless Integration of Sound and Space
The partnership with Devialet will bring innovative audio technology to various touchpoints throughout Fairmont's hotels, from lobbies to guestrooms. The key feature of this collaboration will be the bespoke soundscapes that will play in the hotel's lobbies and public spaces, helping set the mood and tone of each destination. These soundscapes will evolve throughout the day, ensuring that guests feel the atmosphere change as they move through the hotel. This seamless transition is designed to enhance the overall guest experience, making every interaction with the space more memorable and immersive.
One of the highlights of this partnership is the Fairmont Gold experience. In select premium rooms, guests will be treated to Devialet's 'sound journeys,' an innovative way of integrating sound and lighting to create a multi-sensory sanctuary. Whether guests are unwinding after a long day of sightseeing or preparing for a night out, the sound and lighting features will transform the environment, providing a relaxing and unique escape from the everyday.
Exclusive Audio Products at Fairmont
Along with the in-hotel audio experiences, guests will have the opportunity to bring the immersive sound experience home. Fairmont will offer a curated selection of Devialet's top audio products, including the Devialet Gemini wireless earbuds and the Devialet Mania Bluetooth speaker. These portable, high-quality audio devices allow guests to recreate the exceptional sound experience they enjoyed during their stay, wherever they go. The Devialet Phantom speaker, known for its unparalleled sound quality, will also be available for purchase at the Fairmont Store, making it easy for guests to take a piece of the Fairmont experience home with them.
The Fairmont Store will feature a carefully selected range of products inspired by the luxury and elegance of the Fairmont brand, including high-end bedding, premium teas and coffees, and refined home décor, in addition to Devialet's world-class sound products.
Special Activations and Events with Devialet
In celebration of this new partnership, Fairmont and Devialet are planning to introduce a series of special events at select Fairmont properties worldwide. One of the most exciting is the Disappearing Bar pop-up series, which will combine Fairmont's signature cocktails with Devialet's immersive soundscapes, creating a multi-sensory journey for guests. The pop-up events will debut in September 2025 at Fairmont Royal York, where guests can experience live music paired with a specially curated sound ambiance, all while enjoying unique cocktails.
Additionally, Fairmont will host the Party Like It's 1907 Sound Series, a celebration of the brand's rich history in hospitality. The series will feature listening sessions and live performances of some of the most iconic concerts hosted at Fairmont properties over the years. This will give guests a chance to relive historic musical moments with Devialet's superior acoustic clarity, ensuring that the events are just as memorable as the original performances.
